Maintenance - Makita BFS440 Instruction Manual

Apply pressure to the tool and start it. Withdraw the tool
as soon as the clutch cuts in. Then release the switch
trigger.
CAUTION:
• When fitting the screw onto the point of the bit, be
careful not to push in on the screw. If the screw is
pushed in, the clutch will engage and the screw will
rotate suddenly. This could damage a workpiece or
cause an injury.
• Make sure that the bit is inserted straight in the screw
head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 13)
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 two screws then remove the
front cover. (Fig. 14)
Raise the arm part of the spring and then place it in the
recessed part of the housing with a slotted bit screwdriver
of slender shaft or the like. (Fig. 15)
Use pliers to remove the carbon brush caps of the carbon
brushes. Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the
new ones and replace the carbon brush caps in reverse.

Make sure that the carbon brush caps have fit into the
holes in brush holders securely. (Fig. 17)
