Operation; Maintenance - Makita CL072DZ Instruction Manual

ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-
tery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work
on the tool.
Disposing of Dust (Fig. 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9)
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 sponge filter to be
clogged or the motor to be damaged.
• Never throw away the dust stopper because it should
be used whenever either the dust bag or the dust pack
is used.
1. Push the button to open the front cover. Opening it
until a click is heard allows a positive stop at that
position.
NOTE:
• The cleaner is constructed in such a way that the front
cover comes off when trying to force the front cover
open at the angle of more than 90°. If the front cover
comes off, insert it into the front cover joint in place.
CAUTION:
• When closing the front cover, be careful not to pinch
your fingers.
2. Pull out both the orange-colored dust stopper and
dust bag together at the same time.
3. Remove the dust stopper and empty the cleaner.

paper pack.
Dust bag are usable many times repeatedly by cleaning it
out.
Paper pack is a throw-away type. Throw away the entire
paper pack without emptying when it has become full.

Use the dust stopper when installing dust bag. Be careful
not to take the upper side for the lower side by mistake
because they are different each other.
1. Insert the protrusion of the dust bag into the groove
in the dust stopper as shown in the figure.
2. There is no distinction between the upper and lower
sides of the dust bag. You may insert its protrusion
of any side into the lower groove of the dust stopper.
3. Overlap the frame of dust stopper with that of the
dust bag.
4. Place the dust stopper and the dust bag together
into the cleaner cavity in the same direction of arrow
on the dust stopper. Insert them all the way into the
slots in the cleaner cavity.

it on the dust stopper.
Use the dust stopper also when installing dust pack. Be
careful not to take the upper side for the lower side by
mistake because they are different each other.
2. Insert the protrusion of the dust pack into the groove
in the dust stopper as shown in the figure.
3. There is no distinction between the upper and lower

This may result in motor failure.
• Do not fold the cardboard at its opening when installing
the paper pack.
• Never throw away the dust stopper because it need to
be used repeatedly whenever either the dust bag or the

ignition.
