Checkout for curl guide open/close detection
Remove the tie wire, check the tool operation according
to the following steps, and make sure that the tool does
not start if the curl guide is open.
1.
Turn the power off, and leave the curl guide open.
2. Turn the power on.
If the tool will not operate and if the value "2" is shown
on the display panel, the state of the tool is normal. Turn
the power off, and close the curl guide.
If the tool operates and if no error is shown on the display panel,
the state of the tool is abnormal. Stop using the tool immedi-
ately, and ask your local Makita Service Center for repairs.
CAUTION:
If you open the curl guide and turn
the power on to check the interlock, hold the curl
guide as shown in the figure. Never bring your
limbs or face close to the binding or rotating parts
of the tool tip. Otherwise, you may be injured.

Tying work
CAUTION:
Before inserting the battery car-
tridge, be sure to release your fingers from the

process is accidentally carried out.
CAUTION:
When you turn the power on, never
bring your limbs or face close to the binding or
rotating parts of the tool tip. Otherwise, you may
be injured.
CAUTION:
When the power is turned on,
never touch the binding or rotating parts of the
tool tip. Otherwise, you may be injured.

Cautions on working
• If you move the arm from the tying position during
the wire tying process, the wire will get stuck on
the hook, which may lead to incorrect tying.
• Keep pressing the tool against the rebars until the
wire tying process is completed.
• Do not move to the next tying point until the cur-
rent wire tying process is completed.
• The tool tip rotating part (hook) twists the wire
during the wire tying process. Hold the grip firmly
so that your body is not pulled by the tool.
• Do not touch the wires during the wire tying process.
• If you are repeating the wire tying processes in the single
actuation mode, fully release your finger from the switch
trigger. Then, continue to operate the switch trigger.
• If you pull the switch trigger when there is no tie
wire left, an error is displayed. Replace with a new
tie wire and restart the tool.
Tying tips
• Tilt the tool at a 45° angle to the crossed rebars,
and tie alternately as shown in the figure.
► Fig.30
• Avoid strumous sections of rebars.
► Fig.31
• If tying strength is insufficient, change the tying orientation
and perform tying twice so that tying strength increases.
► Fig.32
NOTICE:
When you make the second tie, bend
the tail of the first tie before making the second
tie. Otherwise, the wire may be repelled a second
time. It may cling to the tool tip, and the hook may be
damaged.
