Screwdriving Operation; Drilling Operation - Makita HP002G Instruction Manual

Installing driver bit holder
Optional accessory
► Fig.11: 1. Driver bit holder 2. Driver bit
Fit the driver bit holder into the protrusion at the tool foot
on either right or left side and secure it with a screw.
When not using the driver bit, keep it in the driver bit
holders. Driver bits 45 mm-long can be kept there.
Installing side grip (auxiliary handle)
Optional accessory
► Fig.12: 1. Protrusion 2. Arm 3. Recess 4. Grip
Insert the side grip so that the protrusions on the arm
fit in the recesses on the tool. Then tighten the grip by
turning clockwise.
Depending the operations, you can install the side grip
either right or left side of the tool.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always insert the battery cartridge
all the way until it locks in place. If you can see the
red indicator on the upper side of the button, it is not
locked completely. Insert it fully until the red indicator
cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of
the tool, causing injury to you or someone around
you.
CAUTION:
When the speed comes down
extremely, reduce the load or stop the tool to
avoid the tool damage.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the
other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to
control the twisting action.

Screwdriving operation

CAUTION:
Adjust the adjusting ring to the
proper torque level for your work.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the driver bit is
inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw
and/or driver bit may be damaged.
First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the
arrow on the tool body points to the
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and
apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then
increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger
as soon as the clutch cuts in.

ring can be aligned in any torque levels for this operation.
Be sure to use a tungsten-carbide tipped drill bit.
Position the drill bit at the desired location for the hole,
then pull the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light
pressure gives best results. Keep the tool in position
and prevent it from slipping away from the hole.
Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes clogged with
chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an idle, then remove the
drill bit partially from the hole. By repeating this several times, the
hole will be cleaned out and normal drilling may be resumed.
Blow-out bulb
Optional accessory
► Fig.14: 1. Blow-out bulb
After drilling the hole, use the blow-out bulb to clean the
dust out of the hole.

First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the arrow

Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with
wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw
makes drilling easier by pulling the drill bit into the workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an
indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the point to be drilled.
Place the point of the drill bit in the indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.

will only serve to damage the tip of your drill bit, decrease
the tool performance and shorten the service life of the tool.
