Makita BDF452 - Manual (Page 8)

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The
exceptions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION:
• Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the
drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve
to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool
performance and shorten the service life of the tool.
• There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at
the time of hole break through. Hold the tool firmly and
exert care when the bit begins to break through the
workpiece.
• A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back
out. However, the tool may back out abruptly if you do
not hold it firmly.
• Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar
hold-down device.
• If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15
minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
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. 11)
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
rear cover. (Fig. 12)
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. 13)
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.
(Fig. 14)
Make sure that the carbon brush caps have fit into the
holes in brush holders securely. (Fig. 15)
Reinstall the rear cover and tighten two screws securely.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
