Maintenance - Makita DVC864L Instruction Manual

Installing the paper pack
Optional accessory
WARNING:
When using the paper pack, also
use the prefilter together that is preinstalled on
the tool. Failure to use the prefilter together may
cause unusual noise and heat, resulting in a fire.
CAUTION:
Before using the paper pack, make
sure that powder filter, damper and prefilter are
always used together.
1. Remove the rubber holder.
► Fig.21: 1. Rubber holder
2. Extend the paper pack.
3. Align the paper pack opening with the dust suction
opening of the cleaner.
4. Insert the cardboard of the paper pack onto the
holder so that it is positioned at the end beyond the
detent protrusion.

Installing the polyethylene bag
Cleaner can also be used without polyethylene bag.
However, using polyethylene bag is easier to empty the
tank without letting your hands dirty.
Spread the polyethylene bag in the tank. Insert it
between the holder plate and the tank, and pull it to the
hose inlet.
► Fig.23: 1. Holder plate 2. Polyethylene bag
Spread the bag around the top of the tank so that the
prefilter edge can catch and hold the bag securely.
► Fig.24: 1. Prefilter
NOTE: A polyethylene bag available on the
market can be used. 0.04 mm or thicker one is
recommended.
NOTE: Too much dust will tear the bag easily, so
do not collect the dust more than the half of the bag
capacity.
Emptying the polyethylene bag
WARNING:
Always make sure that the
cleaner is switched off and the battery cartridge is
removed before emptying the polyethylene bag.
Failure to do so may cause an electric shock and
serious personal injury.
CAUTION:
Do not apply a great impact on the
tank. Applying a great impact may cause deformation
and damage to the parts.
CAUTION:
Empty the tank at least once a day
although this depends on picked-up dust volume
in the tank. Or, the suction force will weaken and the
motor may be broken.
CAUTION:
Do not grab the hook when empty-
ing the tank. Grabbing the hook may cause the hook
to break.
Unhook and lift up the tank cover.
Shake off the dust from the prefilter and then take the
polyethylene bag out of the tank.
► Fig.25
NOTE: Take the polyethylene bag carefully out of the
tank so that the polyethylene bag cannot be caught and
torn by the protrusion inside the tank when emptying it.
NOTE: Empty the polyethylene bag before it
becomes full. Too much dust in the tank may cause
the polyethylene bag to be torn.
Installing the tool box
1. Release the lock of the battery cover, and open
the battery cover.
2.
Set the rails on the tool box along the grooves on
the housing.
3. Close the battery cover and apply the lock.
► Fig.26
The tool box is convenient for carrying batteries, pipe, or cuffs.

Connecting the hose
NOTICE:
Never force the hose for bending or
stamp it. Never move the cleaner by a hose.
Forcing, stamping and pulling the hose may cause a
breakage or deformation of the hose.
NOTICE:
When picking up large wastes such as
planer carvings, concrete dusts or similar other
than small wastes, use the 38 mm inner diameter
hose (optional accessory). Using the 28 mm inner
diameter hose (optional accessory) may cause a
hose stuffing and damage.
Insert the hose onto the mounting port of the tank and
turn it clockwise until it locks.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
Storage of accessories
The pipes can be placed into the pipe holder when not
using the cleaner for a short time.
