metal chips, sharp materials such as razors,
needles, broken glass or the like.
4. NEVER USE THE CLEANER IN THE VICINITY
OF GASOLINE, GAS, PAINT, ADHESIVES OR
OTHER HIGHLY EXPLOSIVE SUBSTANCES.
The switch emits sparks when turned ON
and OFF. And so does the motor commutator
during operation. A dangerous explosion may
result.
5. This cleaner is not suitable for picking up
hazardous dust.
6. Never vacuum up toxic, carcinogenic, com-
bustible or other hazardous materials such
as asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium,
lead, pesticides, or other health endangering
materials.
7. Never use the cleaner outdoors in the rain.
8. For Finland, this machine is not to be used
outdoors at low temperature.
9. Do not use close to heat sources (stoves, etc.).
10. Do not block cooling vents. These vents per-
mit cooling of the motor. Blockage should be
carefully avoided otherwise the motor will burn
out from lack of ventilation.
11. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
12. Do not fold, tug or step on the hose.
13. Stop the cleaner immediately if you notice
poor performance or anything abnormal
during operation.
14. DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES. When not in
use, before servicing, and when changing
accessories.
15. Clean and service the cleaner immediately
after each use to keep it in tiptop operating
condition.
16. MAINTAIN THE CLEANER WITH CARE. Keep
the cleaner clean for better and safer per-
formance. Follow instructions for changing
accessories. Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease.
17. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use
of the cleaner, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to deter-
mine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other condi-

18. REPLACEMENT PARTS. When servicing, use
only identical replacement parts.
19. When not in use, always store the cleaner
indoors.
20. Be kind to your cleaner. Rough handling can
cause breakage of even the most sturdily built
cleaner.
21. Do not attempt to clean the exterior or interior
with benzine, thinner or cleaning chemicals.
Cracks and discoloration may be caused.

tion 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 con-
ductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a con-
tainer with other metal objects such as
nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water
or rain.

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 burns. Pay attention to the han-
dling of hot battery cartridges.
15. Do not touch the terminal of the tool imme-
diately 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 result in poor performance or
breakdown of the tool or battery cartridge.
17. Unless the tool supports the use near
high-voltage electrical power lines, do not use
the battery cartridge near high-voltage electri-
cal power lines. It may result in a malfunction or
breakdown of the tool or battery cartridge.
18. Keep the battery away from children.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION: Only use genuine Makita batteries.
Use of non-genuine Makita batteries, or batteries that
have been altered, may result in the battery bursting

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).
