CAUTION:
Only use genuine Makita batteries.
Use of non-genuine Makita batteries, or batteries that
have been altered, may result in the battery bursting
causing fires, personal injury and damage. It will
also void the Makita warranty for the Makita tool and
charger.
Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice
less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-
tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery
service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-
perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let
a hot battery cartridge cool down before
charging it.
4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove
it from the tool or the charger.
5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).

Glossary
MPa (megapascal): Metric pressure measurement.
1 megapascal equals to 10 bar.
Cut-in pressure: While the motor is off, air tank pres-
sure drops as you continue to use your accessory or
air tool. When the tank pressure drops to a certain level
the motor will restart automatically re-started is called
"cut-in pressure".
Cut-out pressure: When you turn on your air compres-
sor, it begins to run, air pressure in the air tank begins
to build. It builds to a certain pressure before the motor
automatically shuts off - protecting your air tank from
pressure higher than its design rating. The pressure at
which the motor shuts off is called "cut-out pressure".

INTRODUCTION
General information
This air compressor is equipped with an Oil-Less pump
designed for durability and no maintenance.
The compressor can be used for properly rated pneu-
matic nailers and staplers. An air pressure regulator is
supplied for these applications.
Intended use

applications could result in property damage and
personal injury.
Separate air transformers which combine the
functions of air regulation and/or moisture and dirt
removal should be used where applicable.
WARNING:
Use the pressure gauge only for a
reference. Check the air pressure using calibrated
measuring equipment during and after inflating
objects.
