Using this tool is easy. First, make sure you have a Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion battery with the star symbol (batteries and charger are sold separately). Insert the battery into the tool. Depending on your task, select the appropriate mode - impact, hammer, driver, or drill. For driving screws, use the screwdriver mode and choose the right torque setting. When drilling, adjust the speed according to the material you're working on. Remember to use the Tightening Mode for self - drilling screws to prevent damage. As for maintenance, keep the tool clean after each use. Wipe it down with a dry cloth. Avoid using the tool in wet or dusty environments as much as possible. If the tool gets dirty, you can use a mild cleaning agent. Always store the tool in a cool, dry place. Only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the tool's performance and safety. And don't forget, the tool has a 3 - year limited warranty, but proper use and maintenance will keep it working well for a long time.
