Using this impact wrench is easy. First, make sure you have a fully charged Makita 18V LXT Lithium - Ion battery with a Star symbol. Insert the battery into the tool. Select the appropriate speed using the 4 - speed power selection switch according to your task. If you're tightening or loosening a fastener, the auto - stop modes can be really helpful. Just start using the tool and it will stop when the fastener is at the right tightness. When working in low - light areas, turn on the built - in LED light with its independent switch. As for maintenance, keep the tool clean. Wipe it down after each use to remove dust and debris. Since it has XPT™ technology, it can handle some harsh conditions, but try to avoid extreme wet or dirty environments. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and to protect the tool with Star Protection. Also, check the hammer and anvil impact mechanism regularly for any signs of wear. If you notice any issues, contact Makita's customer service. Remember, this tool comes with a 3 - year limited warranty, so take good care of it.
