To reduce the risk of re, electric shock
or injury:
1. Do not leave appliance when battery
tted. Remove battery from appliance
when not in use and before servicing.
2. Do not use on wet surfaces. Do not
expose to rain. Store indoors.

6.
Do not handle appliance with wet hands.
7. Do not put any object into openings.
Do not use with any opening blocked;
keep free of dust, lint, hair, and any-
thing that may reduce air ow.
8. Keep hair, loose clothing, ngers,
and all parts of body away from
openings and moving parts.
9. Turn o󰀨 all controls before removing
the battery cartridge.
10. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
11. Do not use to pick up ammable or com-
bustible liquids, such as gasoline, or
use in areas where they may be present.
12. Do not pick up anything that is burn-
ing or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
13. Do not use without dust bag and/or
lters in place.
14. Do not charge the battery outdoors.
15. Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the o󰀨-po-
sition before connecting to battery
pack, picking up or carrying the
appliance. Carrying the appliance with
your nger on the switch or energiz-
ing appliance that have the switch on
invites accidents.
16. Disconnect the battery pack from
the appliance before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing appliance. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the appliance accidentally.
17. Recharge only with the charger
specied by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of re
when used with another battery pack.
18. Use appliances only with speci-
cally designated battery packs. Use
of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and re.
19. When battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal
objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a re.
20. Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact acciden-
tally occurs, ush with water. If liq-
uid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
21. Do not use a battery pack or appli-
ance that is damaged or modied.
Damaged or modied batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in re, explosion or risk of
injury.
22. Do not expose a battery pack or
appliance to re or excessive tem-
perature. Exposure to re or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause
explosion.
23. Follow all charging instructions
and do not charge the battery
pack or appliance outside of the
temperature range specied in the
instructions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside of the speci-
ed range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of re.
24. Have servicing performed by a
qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the product is
maintained.
25. Do not modify or attempt to repair
the appliance or the battery pack
except as indicated in the instruc-
tions for use and care.

1. Before using battery cartridge, read
all instructions and cautionary mark-
ings on (1) battery charger, (2) bat-
tery, and (3) product using battery.
2. Do not disassemble or tamper with
the battery cartridge. It may result in
a re, excessive heat, or explosion.
3. If operating time has become
excessively shorter, stop operating
immediately. It may result in a risk
of overheating, possible burns and
even an explosion.
4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes,
rinse them out with clear water and
seek medical attention right away. It
may result in loss of your eyesight.
5. Do not short the battery cartridge:
(1) Do not touch the terminals with
any conductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge
in a container with other metal
objects such as nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge
to water or rain.

5ENGLISH
A battery short can cause a large
current ow, overheating, possible
burns and even a breakdown.
6. Do not store and use the tool and
battery cartridge in locations where
the temperature may reach or
exceed 50 °C (122 °F).
7. Do not incinerate the battery car-
tridge even if it is severely damaged
or is completely worn out. The bat-
tery cartridge can explode in a re.
8. Do not nail, cut, crush, throw, drop
the battery cartridge, or hit against a
hard object to the battery cartridge.
Such conduct may result in a re,
excessive heat, or explosion.
9. Do not use a damaged battery.
10. The contained lithium-ion batteries
are subject to the Dangerous Goods
Legislation requirements.
For commercial transports e.g. by
third parties, forwarding agents,
special requirement on packaging
and labeling must be observed.
For preparation of the item being

the packaging.
11. When disposing the battery car-
tridge, remove it from the tool and
dispose of it in a safe place. Follow
your local regulations relating to
disposal of battery.
12. Use the batteries only with the prod-
ucts specied by Makita. Installing

explosion, or leak of electrolyte.
13. If the tool is not used for a long
period of time, the battery must be
removed from the tool.
14. During and after use, the battery
cartridge may take on heat which
can cause burns or low temperature

of hot battery cartridges.
15. Do not touch the terminal of the tool
immediately after use as it may get
hot enough to cause burns.
16. Do not allow chips, dust, or soil
stuck into the terminals, holes, and
grooves of the battery cartridge. It
may cause heating, catching re, burst
and malfunction of the tool or battery
cartridge, resulting in burns or personal
injury.
17. Unless the tool supports the use
near high-voltage electrical power
lines, do not use the battery car-
tridge near a high-voltage electrical

Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice
less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-
tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery
service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-
perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let
a hot battery cartridge cool down before
charging it.
4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove
it from the tool or the charger.
5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).
