Switch action

WARNING:
Before installing the battery car-
tridge on the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released. Operating a tool
with a switch that does not actuate properly can lead
to loss of control and serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not use a lock with a shank or
cable any smaller than 6.35 mm (1/4") in diameter.
A smaller shank or cable may not properly lock the
tool in the off position and unintentional operation
may occur resulting in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER use tool without a fully
operative switch trigger. Any tool with an inoper-
ative switch is HIGHLY DANGEROUS and must be
repaired before further usage or serious personal
injury may occur.
WARNING:
For your safety, this tool is equipped
with a lock-off button which prevents the tool from
unintended starting. NEVER use the tool if it runs
when you simply pull the switch trigger without
pressing the lock-off button. A switch in need of
repair may result in unintentional operation and seri-
ous personal injury. Return tool to a Makita service
center for proper repairs BEFORE further usage.
WARNING:
NEVER defeat the lock-off button
by taping down or some other means. A switch with
a negated lock-off button may result in unintentional
operation and serious personal injury.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard
without pressing in the lock-off button. This can
cause switch breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off button is provided. To start the tool,
press in the lock-off button and pull the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop.
A hole is provided in the switch trigger for insertion of a
padlock to lock the tool off.
