Functional Description - Makita DML812 Manuel D'instruction

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION:
Only use genuine Makita batteries.
Use of non-genuine Makita batteries, or batteries that
have been altered, may result in the battery bursting
causing fires, personal injury and damage. It will
also void the Makita warranty for the Makita tool and
charger.
Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice
less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a
hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it
for a long period (more than six months).
FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before adjusting or checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery
cartridge (Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
Always switch off the tool before
removing of the battery cartridge.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool and the battery
cartridge firmly when installing or removing
battery cartridge. Failure to hold the tool and the
battery cartridge firmly may cause them to slip off your
hands and result in damage to the tool and battery
cartridge and a personal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place
with a little click. If you can see the red indicator on the
upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
Always install the battery cartridge
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:
Do not install the battery cartridge
forcibly. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is
not being inserted correctly.

Battery protection system
The tool is equipped with the protection system, which
automatically cuts off the output power for long service
life. The light goes off during operation when the
remaining battery capacity gets low. This is caused by
the activation of the protection system and does not
show trouble. Remove the battery cartridge from the tool
and charge it.
