OPERATION
Screwdriving operation
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly and place the
driver bit/socket bit securely over the screw head/
bolt head during fastening operation. Failure to
do so may cause mishandling of the tool resulting in
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the bit is inserted
straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit
may be damaged.
CAUTION:
Keep hands away from the rotating
parts during operation. Failure to do so may cause
your hands to be caught in the moving parts, resulting
in personal injury.
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and
apply pressure to the tool. Then switch the tool on.
When the clutch cuts in, the motor will stop automati-
cally. Then release the switch trigger.

NOTE: The rotation angle is the angle from the point
that the bolt is tightened in 50% of desired torque to
the point that the bolt is tightened in 100% torque.
NOTE: This reference value is measured by the mea-
surement conditions specified by Makita.
NOTE: Use of a cold battery cartridge may give
warning for battery capacity by LED indicator and
beeper and stop the tool immediately, even if it is fully
charged. In this case, the fastening capacity may be
inferior to the specification on this manual.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
NOTICE:
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
