Depth gauge (Fig. 11)
The depth gauge is convenient for drilling holes of uni-
form depth. Loosen the side grip and insert the depth
gauge into the hole in the side grip. Adjust the depth
gauge to the desired depth and tighten the side grip.
NOTE:
• The depth gauge cannot be used at the position where
the depth gauge strikes against the tool body.
OPERATION
Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
• There is a tremendous and sudden twisting force
exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole break-
through, when the hole becomes clogged with chips
and particles, or when striking reinforcing rods embed-
ded in the concrete. Always use the side grip (auxiliary
handle) and firmly hold the tool by both side grip and
switch handle during operations. Failure to do so may
result in the loss of control of the tool and potentially
severe injury.
When drilling in concrete, granite, tile, etc., move the
action mode changing lever to the position of
to use "rotation with hammering" action.
Be sure to use a tungsten-carbide tipped bit.
Position the bit at the desired location for the hole, then
pull the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light pres-
sure gives best results. Keep the tool in position and pre-
vent it from slipping away from the hole.
Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes
clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an
idle, then remove the bit partially from the hole. By
repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out
and normal drilling may be resumed.
Blow-out bulb (optional accessory) (Fig. 12)
After drilling the hole, use the blow-out bulb to clean the
dust out of the hole.
Drilling operation
When drilling in wood, metal or plastic materials, move
the action mode changing lever to the position of
bol to use "rotation only" action.
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 bit into the
workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the 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 bit in the
indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION:
• Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the
drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve
to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool perfor-
mance and shorten the service life of the tool.
• There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at
the time of hole break through. Hold the tool firmly and
exert care when the bit begins to break through the
workpiece.
6
• A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back out.
However, the tool may back out abruptly if you do not
hold it firmly.
• Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar
hold-down device.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Indicator lamp (Fig. 13)
The green power-ON indicator lamp lights up when the
tool is switched ON. If the indicator lamp is lit but the tool
does not start, the carbon brushes may be worn out, or
the electric circuit or the motor may be defective. If the
indicator lamp does not light up and the tool does not
start, the ON/OFF switch or the mains cord may be
defective.
The red service indicator lamp lights up when the tool is
g
symbol
excessively loaded. Continued operation under such a
condition will result in a failure or breakage of the tool.
At this time, cool down the tool by running the tool under
no load.
Cleaning vent holes (Fig. 14 & 15)
The tool and its air vents have to be kept clean. Regularly
clean the tool's air vents or whenever the vents start to
become obstructed.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
maintenance or adjustment should be performed by
Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.
