you simply pull the switch trigger without press-
ing the lock-off button. A switch in need of repair
may result in unintentional operation and serious
personal injury. Return tool to a Makita service center
for proper repairs BEFORE further usage.

Operation of speed change knob
NOTICE:
Use the speed change knob only after
the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the
tool speed mode before the tool stops may damage
the tool.
NOTICE:
Always set the speed change knob
carefully into the correct position. If you operate
the tool with the speed change knob positioned half-
way between the position 1 and the position 2, the
tool may be damaged.
NOTICE:
If the rotation speed significantly
decreases during operation in the high speed
mode, stop the tool and change the mode to the
low speed mode. Otherwise, the motor may get
overloaded and cause a malfunction or fire.
Two speed ranges can be preselected with the speed
change knob.
Select the proper speed mode for the material to be
mixed.
To change the speed mode, turn the speed change
knob so that the pointer points to the dot at position
1 for low speed mode or the dot at position 2 for high
speed mode.
