User manual MAKITA HR2470T

[. . . ] Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. [. . . ] Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or it may lower the illumination. The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque level is reached. As soon as the torque limiter actuates, switch off the tool immediately. This will help prevent premature wear of the tool. ⷠBits such as hole saw, which tend to pinch or catch easily in the hole, are not appropriate for this tool. This is because they will cause the torque limiter to actuate too frequently. Always check the direction of rotation before operation. ⷠUse the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool. For Model HR2470T/HR2470FT The quick change chuck for SDS-plus can be easily exchanged for the quick change drill chuck. Install the side grip so that the teeth on the grip fit in between the protrusions on the tool barrel. Then tighten the grip by turning clockwise at the desired position. It may be swung 360° so as to be secured at any position. Coat the bit shank head beforehand with a small amount of bit grease (about 0. This chuck lubrication assures smooth action and longer service life. Clean the bit shank and apply bit grease before installing the bit. Turn the bit and push it in until it engages. 11) After installing, always make sure that the bit is securely held in place by trying to pull it out. To remove the bit, pull the chuck cover down all the way and pull the bit out. There is tremendous and sudden twisting force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole break-through, when the hole becomes clogged with chips and particles, or when striking reinforcing rods embedded in the concrete. Always use the side grip (auxiliary handle) and firmly hold the tool by both side grip and switch handle during operations. [. . . ] wARNING: · The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared emission value depending on the ways in which the tool is used. ⷠBe sure to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time). These accessories or attachments are recommended for use with your Makita tool specified in this manual. The use of any other accessories or attachments might present a risk of injury to persons.
