SAFETY WARNINGS
General power tool safety warnings
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
- Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
- Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
- Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
- Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
- Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
- When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
- If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
- Power tools can produce electromagnetic fields (EMF) that are not harmful to the user. However, users of pacemakers and other similar medical devices should contact the maker of their device and/or doctor for advice before operating this power tool.
Personal safety
- Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
- Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
- Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
- Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
- Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
- Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
- If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
- Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can ause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
- Always wear protective goggles to protect your eyes from injury when using power tools. The goggles must comply with ANSI Z87.1 in the USA, EN 166 in Europe, or AS/NZS 1336 in Australia/New Zealand. In Australia/New Zealand, it is legally required to wear a face shield to protect our face, too.
It is an employer’s responsibility to enforce the use of appropriate safety protective equipment by the tool operators and by other persons in the immediate working area.
Power tool use and care
- Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
- Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and ust be repaired.
- Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
- Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
- Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, break- age of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
- Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
- Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
- Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
- When using the tool, do not wear cloth work gloves which may be entangled. The entanglement of cloth work gloves in the moving parts may result in personal injury.
Battery tool use and care
- Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
- Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
- 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 fire.
- Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
- Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
- Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
- Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
- Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power ool is maintained.
- Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
- Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories.
Cordless drill safety warnings
Safety instructions for all operations
- Use the auxiliary handle(s). Loss of control can cause personal injury.
- Brace the tool properly before use. This tool produces a high output torque and without properly bracing the tool during operation, loss of control may occur resulting in personal injury.
- Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
- Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.
- Hold the tool firmly.
- Keep hands away from rotating parts.
- Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
- Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
- Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
- If the drill bit cannot be loosened even you open the jaws, use pliers to pull it out. In such a case, pulling out the drill bit by hand may result in injury by its sharp edge.
- If something wrong with the tool such as abnormal sounds, stop operating immediately and ask your local Makita Service Center for repair.
- Before operation, make sure that there is no buried object such as electric pipe, water pipe or gas pipe in the ground. Otherwise, the tool may touch them, resulting an electric shock, electrical leakage or gas leak.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
- Never operate at higher speed than the maximum speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
- Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
- Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

ASSEMBLY
Installing side grip (auxiliary handle)
Screw the side grip on the tool securely. The side grip can be nstalled on either side of the tool, whichever is convenient.
Front handle
The front handle can be installed in any position within 0° – 112.5° as illustrated.
To change the position, loosen the hex bolts (both sides) with a hex wrench and turn the front handle to the desired position. Then tighten the hex bolts securely.
Installing or removing drill bit
To install the drill bit, place it in the chuck as far as it will go. Tighten the chuck by hand. Place the chuck key in each of the three holes and tighten clockwise. Be sure to tighten all three chuck holes evenly. To remove the drill bit, turn the chuck key counterclockwise in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand.
After use, return the chuck key to the key holder on the tool as illustrated.
Hook
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool. To use the hook, simply lift up hook until it snaps into the open position. When not in use, always lower hook until it snaps into the closed position.
The hook is also used for connecting the lanyard (tether strap). Be sure to connect the lanyard (tether strap) to the double looped portion of the hook.
OPERATION
Holding tool
Grasp the handle with one hand and the front handle with the other hand.
When drilling a large hole with a self-feed bit, etc., the side grip (auxiliary handle) should be used as a brace to maintain safe control of the tool. When drilling action is forward (clockwise), the tool should be braced to prevent a counterclockwise reaction if the bit should bind.
When reversing, brace the tool to prevent a clockwise reaction. If the drill bit must be removed from a partially drilled hole, be sure the tool is properly braced before reversing.
Drilling operation
Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw makes drilling easier by pulling the drill bit into the workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the drill bit in the indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are iron and brass which hould be drilled dry.
Lanyard (tether strap) connection
- Always keep the tool tethered when working “at height”. Maximum lanyard length is 2 m (6.5 ft). The maximum permissible fall height for lanyard
(tether strap) must not exceed 2 m (6.5 ft). - Use only with lanyards appropriate for this tool type and rated for at least 8.0 kg (17.6 lbs).
- Do not anchor the tool lanyard to anything on your body or on movable components. Anchor the tool lanyard to a rigid structure that can withstand the forces of a dropped tool.
- Make sure the lanyard is properly secured at each end prior to use.
- Inspect the tool and lanyard before each use for damage and proper function (including fabric and stitching). Do not use if damaged or not functioning properly.
- Do not wrap lanyards around or allow them to come in contact with sharp or rough edges.
- Fasten the other end of the lanyard outside the working area so that a falling tool is held securely.
- Attach the lanyard so that the tool will move away from the operator if it falls. Dropped tools will swing on the lanyard, which could cause injury or loss of balance.
- Do not use near-moving parts or running machinery. Failure to do so may result in a crush or entanglement hazard.
- Do not carry the tool by the attachment device or the lanyard.
- Only transfer the tool between your hands while you are properly balanced.
- Do not attach lanyards to the tool in a way that keeps guards, switches or lock-offs from operating properly.
- Avoid getting tangled in the lanyard.
- Keep lanyard away from the cutting area of the tool.
- Use multi-action and screw gate type carabineers. Do not use single-action spring clip carabineers.
- In the event the tool is dropped, it must be tagged and removed from service, and should be inspected by a Makita Factory or Authorized Service Center.
