• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released.
• When not using the tool, remove the lock-off button and
store it in a secure place. This prevents unauthorized
operation.
• Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing in the
lock-off button. This can cause switch breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a
lock-off button is provided. To start the tool, press in the lock-
off button and pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trig-
ger to stop.
WARNING:
• NEVER use tool without a fully operative switch trigger.
Any tool with an inoperative switch is HIGHLY
DANGEROUS and must be repaired before further
usage.
• For your safety, this tool is equipped with a lock-off
button which prevents the tool from unintended starting.
NEVER use the tool if it runs when you simply pull the
switch trigger without pressing the lock-off button.
Return tool to a Makita service center for proper repairs
BEFORE further usage.
• NEVER tape down or defeat purpose and function of
