Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Battery Charging: Before first use, charge both 5.0Ah LXT batteries using the supplied fast charger until the status light indicates completion.
  2. Compatibility: Both tools are part of the Makita 18V LXT battery ecosystem, meaning they are fully compatible with any existing 18V LXT batteries and chargers you may own.
  3. Chuck Maintenance: Keep the 1/4" hex chuck and drill chuck clean from debris. Apply a light amount of machine oil to moving parts if they become stiff.
  4. Storage: Always store the tools in the provided Makpac case in a dry environment to prevent moisture damage to the electronic circuits.
  5. Cleaning: Wipe the tools down with a dry cloth after use. Avoid using solvents which can degrade the plastic housing.
