Replacing dust cover brush
006105
Replace the brush on the dust cover shortly after its tip is
damaged. To replace the brush, slide it in the direction of
arrow as shown in the figure.
The dust cover is used to reduce the risk of dust intrusion
into tool body. Be sure to use the tool with the dust cover in
place when operating. Should it be damaged, replace it with
new one without fail.
Long use and operation of the tool using much water causes
buildup of dust inside the tool. To maintain the product safety
and operate the tool with high efficiency, always check the
exhaust vent at the back of tool.
When you find buildup of dust in that area, ask Makita ser-
vice center for cleaning inside of the tool. Never disassemble
or clean the inside of the tool by yourself. Early request for
cleaning is recommended at all times.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, car-
bon brush inspection and replacement, any other mainte-
nance or adjustment should be performed by Makita
Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.
