Using the Makita 18V LXT Cordless Steel Rod Flush - Cutter is a breeze. First, make sure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted into the tool. Then, select the right blade for your cutting job. Position the rebar or threaded rod you want to cut and line up the cutter. Press the switch to start the motor, and let the powerful 2,200 RPM BL™ Brushless Motor do the work. The Automatic Speed Change™ technology will adjust the cutting speed and torque for the best performance. As you cut, the chip collector will catch the metal cut - offs. For your comfort, adjust the side handle to one of the three available positions. When it comes to safety, always wear appropriate protective gear like safety glasses and gloves. Avoid using the tool in wet or extremely dusty conditions, unless the XPT™ protection can handle it. Keep the tool away from children. For maintenance, after each use, clean the tool, especially the blade, to remove any debris. Check the blade regularly for wear and replace it if necessary. Store the tool in a dry place and keep the battery charged. This will help your Makita cordless cutter last a long time and work at its best.
