How to use

Before first use, charge the battery fully in a compatible Makita charger following the charger manufacturer’s instructions. Insert the battery into the tool until it clicks into place, ensuring proper alignment with the tool’s contacts. During use, monitor runtime and replace the battery with a charged unit when power diminishes to maintain consistent tool performance. Remove the battery from the tool when not in use or before performing maintenance, and store the battery in a cool, dry place.

Usage recommendations

Charge and discharge the battery using only compatible Makita chargers and tools. Avoid exposing the battery to extreme temperatures, moisture or direct flame. For prolonged storage, keep the battery partially charged (around 40–60%) and check charge level periodically. Dispose of or recycle the battery according to local regulations for lithium‑ion cells.
