General Power Tool Safety
Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all

instructions.

Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.

Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

Electrical safety

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.

There is an increased risk of

electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.

Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords

increase the risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use

of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) protected supply.

Use of an

GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

10.

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.

11.

children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool.

Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

21.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.

Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.

22.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

23.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.

Use of the

power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Characteristics of Cordless Oil-impulse Driver

The Makita Cordless Oil-impulse Driver is a hydraulically
operated impact tool using oil viscosity to produce impacts.
Since oil viscosity changes with the temperature, be aware of
the following two points when operating the tool.

1. Avoid using the tool below -10 ºC (14 ºF) of

temperature. When the tool temperature goes
down below the degrees, this may cause damage
to the motor of tool due to poor impulse.

2. When the tool becomes too hot, it may take

longer to set screws.

The tool can overheat, causing a failure or hand
burn if you operate it continuously for long hours.
Let the tool cool off for more than 30 minutes
before changing batteries during a long,
continuous job.

a test operation to determine the proper fastening time
for your screw.

The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of
factors including the following. After fastening, always
check the torque with a torque wrench.

When the battery cartridge is discharged almost
completely, voltage will drop and the fastening
torque will be reduced.

Driver bit or socket bit
Failure to use the correct size driver bit or socket
bit will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.

3. Bolt

•

Even though the torque coefficient and the class of
bolt are the same, the proper fastening torque will
differ according to the diameter of bolt.

•

Even though the diameters of bolts are the
same, the proper fastening torque will differ
according to the torque coefficient, the class
of bolt and the bolt length.

The manner of holding the tool or the material of
