Hold the tool firmly and place the socket over the bolt or
nut. Turn the tool on and fasten for the proper fastening
time.
NOTE:
When fastening screw M8 or smaller, carefully
•
adjust pressure on the switch trigger so that the
screw is not damaged.
Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut
•
without applying excessive pressure on the tool.
Excessive fastening torque may damage the
•
bolt/nut or socket. Before starting your job, always
perform a test operation to determine the proper
fastening time for your bolt or nut. Especially for
the bolt smaller than M8, perform the above test
operation to prevent the trouble on socket or bolt,
etc.
The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of
factors including the following. After fastening, always
check the torque with a torque wrench.
1. Voltage
Voltage drop will cause a reduction in the fastening
torque.
2. Socket
Failure to use the correct size socket will
•
cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
A worn socket (wear on the hex end or square
•
end) 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.

4. The use of the universal joint or the extension bar
somewhat reduces the fastening force of the
impact wrench. Compensate by fastening for a
longer period of time.
5. The manner of holding the tool or the material of
driving position to be fastened will affect the
torque.
6. Operating the tool at low speed will cause a
reduction in the fastening torque.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
Replacing carbon brushes
Fig.7
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps.
Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones
and secure the brush holder caps.
Fig.8
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers,
always using Makita replacement parts.
