Reversing switch action
CAUTION: Always check the direction of
rotation before operation.
CAUTION: Use the reversing switch only after
the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the
direction of rotation before the tool stops may dam-
age the tool.
CAUTION: When not operating the tool,
always set the reversing switch lever to the neu-
tral position.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rota-
tion. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A side for clock-
wise rotation or from the B side for counterclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral posi-
tion, the switch lever cannot be pulled.

Automatic speed change function
This tool has "high speed mode" and "high torque mode".
The tool automatically changes the operation mode
depending on the work load. When the work load is low,
the tool will run in the "high speed mode" for quicker
operation. When the work load is high, the tool will run
in the "high torque mode" for powerful operation.

NOTICE: Use the speed change knob only after
the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the
tool speed before the tool stops may damage the tool.
NOTICE: Always set the speed change knob
carefully into the correct position. If you operate

Torque limiter
The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque level is reached
at the low speed setting (position 1). The motor will disengage from
the output shaft. When this happens, the tool bit will stop turning.
To restart the tool, lift the tool bit out of the workpiece
and then pull the switch trigger again.

This tool is equipped with an electric brake. If the tool consis-
tently fails to quickly cease to function after the switch trigger
is released, have the tool serviced at a Makita service center.
Soft start feature
This function allows the smooth start-up of the tool by
limiting the start-up torque.
