Apply forward pressure to the tool to theextent that the bit will not slip off the screw and turn thetool on to start operation.NOTE:• Use the proper bit for the head of the screw/boltthat you wish to use.• When fastening M8 or smaller screw, choose aproper impact force and carefully adjust pressureon the switch trigger so that the screw is notdamaged.• Hold the tool pointed straight at the screw.• If the impact force is too strong you tighten thescrew for a time longer than shown in the figures,the screw or the point of the driver bit may beoverstressed, stripped, damaged, etc. Beforestarting your job, always perform a test operation todetermine the proper fastening time for your screw.The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety offactors including the following. After fastening, alwayscheck the torque with a torque wrench.1. When the battery cartridge is discharged almostcompletely, voltage will drop and the fasteningtorque will be reduced.2. Driver bit or socket bitFailure to use the correct size driver bit or socketbit will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.3. Bolt• Even though the torque coefficient and theclass of bolt are the same, the proper fasteningtorque will differ according to the diameter ofbolt.• Even though the diameters of bolts are thesame, the proper fastening torque will differaccording to the torque coefficient, the class ofbolt and the bolt length.4. The manner of holding the tool or the material ofdriving position to be fastened will affect thetorque.5. Operating the tool at low speed will cause areduction in the fastening torque.MAINTENANCECAUTION:• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and thebattery cartridge is removed before attempting toperform inspection or maintenance except for thefollowing troubleshooting related to the light.• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or thelike. Discoloration, deformation or cracks mayresult.To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,any other maintenance or adjustment should beperformed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, alwaysusing Makita replacement parts.OPTIONAL ACCESSORIESCAUTION:• These accessories or attachments arerecommended for use with your Makita toolspecified in this manual.
