Operation - Makita CL183D Instruction Manual

Switch action
CAUTION:
• Before inserting the battery cartridge into the
tool, always check to see that the switch trigger
actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released.
► Fig.3: 1. Switch trigger

the switch trigger to stop.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
the battery cartridge is removed before carrying
out any work on the tool.
Disposing of Dust
CAUTION:
• Empty the cleaner before it becomes too full, or
the suction force weakens.
• Be sure to empty out the dust inside the cleaner
itself. Failure to do so may cause the filter to be
clogged or the motor to be damaged.
► Fig.4: 1. Capsule
In order to drop dust sticking on the filter in the capsule,
tap the circumference of the capsule 4 or 5 times with
your hand.
► Fig.5: 1. Capsule 2. Suction inlet
Now point suction inlet downwards, turn capsule in
direction of arrow in diagram, and disconnect capsule
slowly and straight.
NOTE:
• Dust may spill out when opening capsule. Be
sure to keep capsule as vertical as possible,
and place a garbage bag beneath capsule.
► Fig.6: 1. Prefilter 2. Capsule
Remove accumulated dust from inside of capsule and
off of prefilter.
► Fig.7: 1. Prefilter 2. Securing lip
Twist prefilter in direction of arrow to unfasten securing
lip from cleaner unit and then pull off prefilter.
► Fig.8: 1. Prefilter 2. Filter
Clean out fine dust from prefilter. Next, remove filter,
and lightly tap to dislodge dust.
Reassembly
► Fig.9: 1. Prefilter 2. Filter
First, put filter without being peeled back. If filter is put
on incorrectly, dust will get into motor housing, and
cause motor failure. Second, put prefilter over filter.
► Fig.10: 1. Securing lip
Turn the set of filters, and adjust the position of the two
securing lips on prefilter, and connect with the gutters of
the cleaner housing.
► Fig.11: 1. Alignment marks
► Fig.12: 1. Handle 2. Capsule
Connect capsule, in accordance with alignment marks
on handle and capsule, firmly twist capsule in direction
of arrow until it is secured.
NOTE:
• Always remove dust ahead of time, as suction
power will be reduced if there is too much dust
in cleaner.
• Always be sure to check that both filter and pre-
filter are loaded correctly prior to using cleaner.
If they are not loaded correctly, dust will get into
the motor housing, and cause motor failure.

OPERATION

CAUTION:
• Insert (or extract) nozzle while twisting it clock-
wise. If twisted counterclockwise, capsule may
become loose.
