Using your Makita 18V Cordless Multi - Tool Kit is a breeze. First, make sure you have the right accessory for the job. If you're cutting or sanding, choose the appropriate Starlock accessory and use the tool - less clamp system to install it quickly. Turn on the tool using the large on/off slide switch. You can lock it on for continuous operation with the lock - on button. Use the variable speed control dial to adjust the speed based on what you're working on. For tough materials, you might want a higher speed. The soft - start feature will ensure a smooth start every time. When using the planer, position it correctly on the surface and let the tool do the work. Keep in mind that the Anti - Vibration Technology will reduce the shake in your hands, making it more comfortable to use. When you're done, turn off the tool and remove the accessory. For maintenance, keep the tool clean. Wipe it down after each use to remove dust and debris. The Extreme Protection Technology helps resist dust and water, but it's still a good idea to avoid using it in extremely wet or dirty conditions. Check the battery regularly. Make sure it's charged and stored in a cool, dry place. If you notice any issues like overheating or the tool not performing well, the Star Protection Computer Controls should kick in to protect the tool and battery. But if the problem persists, contact Makita's customer service. Remember, this tool comes with a 3 - year limited warranty, so you're covered for a good while.
