Using your Makita 18V LXT® Brushless Cordless Vacuum is a breeze. First, make sure you have a fully - charged 18V LXT® battery (sold separately). Insert the battery into the vacuum. You can then choose the speed you need using the push - button 4 - speed power selection. For general cleaning, the normal speed is a good choice. If you need more power, go for the max or high speed. In quiet areas, use the quiet mode. When the dust bag is full, simply remove it and replace it with a new disposable paper bag or empty the reusable cloth bag. As for maintenance, keep the motor area clean. Don't use the vacuum in wet conditions. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and safety. Also, remember that the vacuum has Star Protection, which helps protect it from overloading, over - discharging, and overheating. If you notice any issues, refer to the 3 - year limited warranty for support.
