ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the
tool.
Installing side grip (auxiliary handle)
Fig.4
Always use the side grip to ensure operating safety.
Install the side grip so that the teeth on the grip fit in
between the protrusions on the tool barrel.
Then tighten the grip by turning clockwise at the desired
position.
NOTE:
•
The depth gauge cannot be used at the position
where the depth gauge strikes against the gear
housing.
Installing or removing drill bit
For Model DP4010
Fig.5
To install the bit, place it in the chuck as far as it will go.
Tighten the chuck by hand. Place the chuck key in each
of the three holes and tighten clockwise. Be sure to
tighten all three chuck holes evenly.
To remove the bit, turn the chuck key counterclockwise
in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand.
After using the chuck key, be sure to return to the
original position.
For Model DP4011
Fig.6
Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterclockwise to
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.
Depth gauge
Fig.7
The depth gauge is convenient for drilling holes of
uniform depth. Loosen the side grip and insert the depth
gauge into the hole in the grip base. Adjust the depth
gauge to the desired depth and tighten the side grip.
NOTE:
•
The depth gauge cannot be used at the position
where the depth gauge strikes against the tool
body.
OPERATION
Holding the tool
Always use side grip (auxiliary handle) and fimly hold the
tool by side grip and switch handle during operations.
Drilling operation
CAUTION:
•
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up
the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will
only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease
the tool performance and shorten the service life
of the tool.
•
There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit
at the time of hole break through. Hold the tool
firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break
through the workpiece.
•
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to
back out. However, the tool may back out abruptly
if you do not hold it firmly.
•
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or
similar hold-down device.
•
Avoid drilling in material that you suspect contains
hidden nails or other things that may cause the bit
to bind or break.
Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with
wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw
makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole,
make an indentation with a center-punch and hammer
at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the
indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The
exceptions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
•
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Cleaning vent holes
Fig.8
The tool and its air vents have to be kept clean.
Regularly clean the tool's air vents or whenever the
vents start to become obstructed.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
maintenance or adjustment should be performed by
Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.
