FAQs

What type of batteries are compatible with this kit?

This kit is compatible with Makita 18V G-Series lithium-ion batteries.

Can I use this kit for heavy-duty construction work?

While suitable for many tasks, this kit is best suited for light- to medium-duty applications. For heavy-duty construction, consider a more powerful tool.

How do I change the drill bit in the combi drill?

Open the keyless chuck by rotating it. Insert the bit and tighten the chuck by rotating it in the opposite direction.

What is the purpose of the electronic brake on the impact driver?

The electronic brake stops the tool quickly, enhancing safety and allowing for more precise screw placement.

How do I maintain the batteries?

Avoid storing batteries in a fully discharged state. Charge the batteries regularly, even when not in use. Store in a cool, dry place.

What is the warranty period for this kit?

Warranty information can be found in the product documentation or on Makita's official website.

Can I use standard drill bits with the impact driver?

No, the impact driver requires impact-rated bits. Using standard drill bits may damage the tool or the bit itself.

Troubleshooting

Drill or driver not starting

Check if the battery is properly inserted and charged. Ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position.

Drill or driver losing power

Recharge the battery. Consider using a higher capacity battery for longer run times.

Drill bit or screwdriver bit slipping

Ensure the bit is correctly inserted and that the chuck is tightened properly. Check the bit for wear and replace if necessary.

Impact driver not delivering enough torque

Check the torque setting. Ensure the battery is fully charged. If the issue persists, check the tool for any obstructions.

Charger not working

Check the power connection to the charger. Ensure the outlet is functioning. If the issue persists, contact Makita support.
