SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance,
basic precautions should always be fol-
lowed, including the following:
READ ALL
INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING
THIS APPLIANCE.
WARNING- To reduce the
risk of re, electric shock or injury:
1. Do not leave appliance when
plugged in or battery tted. Unplug
from outlet and remove battery
from appliance when not in use and
before servicing.
2. Do not allow to be used as a toy.
Close attention is necessary when
used by or near children.
3. Use only as described in this man-
ual. Use only manufacturer's recom-
mended attachments.
4. Do not use with damaged cord, plug
or battery. If appliance is not working
as it should, has been dropped, dam-
aged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, return it to a service center.
5. Do not pull or carry by cord, use
cord as a handle, close a door on
cord, or pull cord around sharp
edges or corners. Do not run appli-
ance over cord. Keep cord away
from heated surfaces.

3ENGLISH
6. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To
unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
7. Do not handle plug or appliance
with wet hands.
8. 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.
9. Keep hair, loose clothing, ngers,
and all parts of body away from
openings and moving parts.
10. Turn off all controls before unplugging
or removing the battery cartridge.
11. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
12. Do not use to pick up ammable or
combustible liquids, such as gaso-
line, or use in areas where they may
be present.
13. Use only the charger supplied by
the manufacturer to recharge.
14. Do not pick up anything that is burn-
ing or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
15. This appliance is provided with double
insulation. Use only identical replace-
ment parts. See instructions for Servicing
of Double-Insulated Appliances.
16. Do not use without lters in place.
17. Do not charge the battery outdoors.
18. Use power tools 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 termi-
nals 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. (For the powder lter models.)
Do not use on wet surfaces. Do not
expose to rain. Store indoors.
22. (For the cloth lter models.)
Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
23. Always install oat before any wet
pick-up operation.
Battery tool use and care
1. 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.
2. Use power tools only with specically
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk
of injury and re.
3. 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.
4. Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED
APPLIANCES
A double-insulated appliance is marked
with one or more of the following: The
words "DOUBLE INSULATION" or
"DOUBLE INSULATED" or the double insu-
lation symbol (square within a square).
In a double-insulated appliance, two sys-
tems of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means is pro-
vided on a double-insulated appliance, nor
should a means for grounding be added
to the appliance. Servicing a double-insu-
lated appliance requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system, and should be
done only by qualied service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double-insulated
appliance must be identical to the parts
they replace.

4ENGLISH
Polarization instructions
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will t in
a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not t fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do
not change the plug in any way.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good con-
dition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An under-
sized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheat-
ing. Table 1 shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gage. The smaller the gage num-
ber, the heavier the cord.

Important safety
instructions for
battery cartridge
1. Before using battery cartridge,
read all instructions and cautionary
markings on (1) battery charger,
(2) battery, and (3) product using
battery.
2. Do not disassemble battery
cartridge.
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.
A battery short can cause a large
current ow, overheating, possible
burns and even a breakdown.
6. Do not store 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. Be careful not to drop or strike
battery.
9. Do not use a damaged battery.

5ENGLISH
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
shipped, consulting an expert for haz-
ardous material is required. Please
also observe possibly more detailed
national regulations.
Tape or mask off open contacts and
pack up the battery in such a man-
ner that it cannot move around in the
packaging.
11. Follow your local regulations relat-
ing to disposal of battery.
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
causing res, personal injury and damage. It will
also void the Makita warranty for the Makita tool and
charger.
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. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).
