Disconnect the connector by pulling it. (Fig. 23)
Remove the crank cap using a hex wrench. (Fig. 24)
Rest the tool on the table with the bit end pointing
upwards. This will allow the old grease to collect
inside the crank housing. Wipe out the old grease
inside and replace with a fresh grease (30 g). Use
only Makita genuine hammer grease (optional acces-
sory). Filling with more than specified amount of
grease (approx. 30 g) can cause faulty hammering
action or tool failure. Fill only with the specified
amount of grease. Reinstall the crank cap and tighten
with the hex wrench. (Fig. 25)
Connect the connector and reinstall the handle.
(Fig. 26)
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to damage the terminals or lead wires
especially when wiping out the old grease or install-
ing the handle.
• Do not tighten the crank cap excessively. It is made
of resin and is subject to breakage.
To maintain product safety and reliability, repairs,
maintenance or adjustment should be carried out by a
Makita Authorized Service Center.
