Optional Accessories; Maintenance - Makita DVC340 Instruction Manual

removing the dust bag on the cleaner and
emptying the dust bag (made of cloth). Failure to
switch off, remove the battery cartridge and unplug the
connected power tool may result in electric shock and
serious personal injury.
• When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust
bag from the cleaner and pull the fastener out. Empty
the dust bag of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to
remove particles adhering to the insides which might
hamper further collection.
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. (Fig. 16)
Pick up the square section of the dust bag joint firmly, turn
it counterclockwise and then remove the dust bag.
Open the fastener and dispose of the dust. (Fig. 17)
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
perform inspection or maintenance.
Cleaning the filter area
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. (Fig. 18)
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
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
