Maintenance - Makita BVC340 Instruction Manual

NOTE:
• For the time to empty the dust bag, use a guide line
that the dust bag becomes full when drilling about
450 holes with 6.5 mm diameter and 40 mm depth
on the concrete. A dust bag clogged with the built up
particles may reduce the dust collection power and
cause damage to the cleaner motor.
CAUTION:
• Attach the dust bag (made of cloth) to the dust bag
joint securely and close the fastener completely
before use. Failure to attach the dust bag securely and
close its fastener completely may cause blow-out of
dust and result in serious personal injury.
Pick up the square section of the dust bag joint firmly,
turn it counterclockwise and then remove the dust bag.
(Fig. 15)
Open the fastener and dispose of the dust. (Fig. 16)
CAUTION:
• Remove all particles adhering to the fastener area.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
• Always be sure that the cleaner is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to per-
form inspection or maintenance.
Cleaning the filter area (Fig. 17)
CAUTION:
• Do not pick up materials other than dust, such as
stone, wood chip and the like since this cleaner is
intended for dust collection. Picking up stone, wood
chip and the like may cause damage to the fan and the
cleaner.
Check and clean up the filter area in the suction inlet
regularly. Remove foreign objects which will obstruct
suction.
Cleaning
From time to time wipe off the outside (cleaner body) of
the cleaner using a cloth dampened in soapy water.
CAUTION:
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
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.

Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined
according to EN60745:
Work mode: operation without load
Vibration emission (a
Uncertainty (K): 1.5 m/s
• The declared vibration emission value has been mea-
sured in accordance with the standard test method and
may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
