OPERATION (Fig. 5)
Chipping/Scaling/Demolition
Always hold the tool firmly with one hand on the side grip
and other hand on the main handle.Turn the tool on and
apply slight pressure on the tool so that the tool will not
bounce around, uncontrolled. Pressing very hard on the
tool will not increase the efficiency.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
Replacing carbon brushes
When the resin insulating tip inside the carbon brush is
exposed to contact the commutator, it will automatically
shut off the motor. When this occurs, both carbon brushes
should be replaced. Keep the carbon brushes clean and
free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be
replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon
brushes. (Fig. 6)
Use a screwdriver to remove the rear cover. (Fig. 7)
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps. (Fig. 8)
Reinstall the rear cover firmly.
Lubrication (Fig. 9 & 10)
This tool requires no hourly or daily lubrication because it
has a grease-packed lubrication system. It should be relu-
bricated after every 6 months of operation. Send the com-
plete tool to Makita Authorized Service Center for this
lubrication service. However, if circumstances require that
you should lubricate it by yourself, proceed as follows.
Run the tool for several minutes to warm it up. Switch off
and unplug the tool.
Remove the crank cap by loosening hex bolts (3 pcs.)
securing it with a hex wrench. 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 accessory). Filling with more than the specified
amount of grease (approx. 30 g) can cause faulty ham-
mering action or tool failure. Fill only with the specified
amount of grease.
Reinstall the crank cap and tighten hex bolts firmly with
the hex wrench.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-
formed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
