CAUTION:
• The fast charger Model DC1411 is for charging Makita battery cartridge. Never use it for other purposes or
for other manufacturer's batteries.
• When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery cartridge which has not been used for a long period of
time, it may not accept a full charge. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem. You can
recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging it completely and recharging a couple of times.
• If you charge a battery cartridge from a just-operated tool or a battery cartridge which has been left in a
location exposed to direct sunlight or heat for a long time, the charging light may flash in red color. If this
occurs, wait for a while. Charging will begin after the battery cartridge cools. The battery cartridge will cool
faster if you remove the battery cartridge from the fast charger.
• If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red color, a problem exists and charging is not possible.
The terminals on the charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or the battery cartridge is worn out or
damaged.
Trickle charge (Maintenance charge)
If you leave the battery cartridge in the charger to prevent spontaneous discharging after full charge, the
charger will switch into its ''trickle charge (maintenance charge)'' mode and keep the battery cartridge fresh and
fully charged.
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 Nickel Metal Hydride battery cartridge when you do not use it for more than six months.

open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far
as it will go. Hold the ring firmly and turn the sleeve
clockwise to tighten the chuck.
To remove the bit, hold the ring and turn the sleeve
counterclockwise.
When not using the driver bit, keep it in the bit holders.
