be read before use. And the max discharging current of the
battery should be greater than or equal to 8A.
11. The contained lithium-ion-batteries are subject to
the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. For
commercial transports e.g. by third parties, forwarding
agents, special requirement on packaging and
labeling must be observed.
For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting
an expert for hazardous material is required. Please

explosion, or leak of electrolyte.
CAUTION:
●
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced.
●
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
●
Only use genuine Makita batteries. Use of non-
genuine Makita batteries, or batteries that have
been altered, may result in the battery bursting
causing res, 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 cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at
10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot battery cartridge
cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for a
long period (more than six months).
