MAKITA HM1512 (01) PDF SUMMARY:
What is the intended use of the tool?
The tool is intended for chiselling work in concrete, brick, stone, and asphalt, as well as for driving and compacting with appropriate accessories.
What is the power supply for the tool?
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on a single-phase AC supply. It is double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without an earth wire.
What should I do before plugging in the tool?
Always check to see that the switch lever actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position.
How do I start the tool?
To start the tool, push the switch lever “ON (I)” on the left side of the tool.
How do I stop the tool?
To stop the tool, push the switch lever “OFF (O)” on the right side of the tool.
Can the switch be locked in the “ON” position?
Yes, the switch can be locked in the “ON” position for ease of operator comfort during extended use. Apply caution when locking the tool in the “ON” position and maintain a firm grasp on the tool.
What does the green power-ON indicator lamp signify?
The power-ON indicator lamp lights up in green when the tool is plugged in. If the indicator lamp does not light up, the mains cord or the controller may be malfunctioning.
What does it mean if the green indicator light is on but the tool does not start?
If the indicator lamp lights up but the tool does not start, even if the tool is switched on, the carbon brushes may be worn out, or the controller, the motor or the switch may be malfunctioning.
What does the red service indicator lamp signify?
The service indicator lamp flickers red when the carbon brushes are nearly worn out, indicating that the tool needs servicing. After approximately 8 hours of use, the motor will automatically shut off.
What is the soft no-load rotation function and which models have it?
The soft no-load rotation function is when blows at no load per minute become smaller than those on load in order to reduce vibration under no load. This function is available for models HM1511 and HM1512 only.
What is the soft start function?
The soft-start function minimizes start-up shock, and makes the machine start smoothly.
When should I use the side handle?
Always use the side handle to ensure safe operation.
What should I check after installing or adjusting the side handle?
After installing or adjusting the side handle, make sure that the side handle is firmly secured.
How can the side handle be adjusted?
The side handle can be swung 360° on the vertical and secured at any desired position. Loosen the clamp nut to swing the side handle to a desired position, and then tighten the clamp nut securely.
What should I do before installing a bit?
Clean the shank end of the bit and apply grease before installing the bit. Coat the shank end of the bit beforehand with a small amount of grease (about 0.5 – 1 g).
How do I install the bit for models HM1511 and HM1501?
With the notched portion on the shank of the bit facing toward the tool retainer, insert the bit into the tool holder as far as it will go. Then pull out and turn the tool retainer 180° to secure the bit.
How do I install the bit for models HM1512 and HM1502?
This tool accepts bits either with or without a collar on its shank. For bits with a collar, pivot the tool retainer, insert the bit into the tool holder as far as it will go, and then return the tool retainer. For bits without a collar, pivot the tool retainer, with the notched portion of the bit facing the tool retainer shaft, insert the bit into the tool holder as far as it will go, and then return the tool retainer.
How do I remove the bit?
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse.
What is the purpose of the dust extractor attachment?
The dust extractor attachment is intended for reducing blown-away dust and particles when chiseling in a ceramic material such as concrete.
How do I install the hose holder (A)?
Loosen the clamp nut, and then remove the hex bolt. Install the hose holder (A) between the hex bolt and the clamp nut by tightening the clamp nut firmly.
How do I attach the dust cover and hose to the tool?
Attach the dust cover and the hose to the tool, and then fix the hose to the hose holders.
How do I connect the hose to the vacuum cleaner?
Connect the hose to the hose of the vacuum cleaner with the hose joint. If the hose is not included, attach the dust cover to the cleaner’s joint or attach it to Makita’s hose ø28.
What is the recommended distance between the dust cover and the tip of the chisel or bull point?
For the self-sharpening bull point, adjust the dust cover not to veil the grooves of the self-sharpening bull point. For bits other than the self-sharpening bull point, the recommended distance is 30 mm to 100 mm.
How should I hold the tool during operation?
Always use the side grip (auxiliary handle) and firmly hold the tool by both side grip and switch handle during operations.
What should I ensure about the workpiece before operating the tool?
Always make sure that the workpiece is secured before operation. Failure to properly secure the workpiece may cause the workpiece to move resulting in injury.
What should I do if the bit gets stuck?
Do not pull the tool out forcibly even if the bit gets stuck. Loss of control may cause injury.
What should I do with the tool after using it?
Do not leave the tool stabbed in the workpiece. Otherwise, the tool may start unintentionally and cause an injury.
How should I use the tool for chipping, scaling, and demolition?
Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Turn the tool on and apply slight pressure on the tool so that the tool will not bounce around uncontrolled. Pressing very hard on the tool will not increase the efficiency.
What should I do before performing any inspection or maintenance?
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
What type of cleaning agents should I avoid using on the tool?
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol, or the like as discoloration, deformation, or cracks may result.
How is the tool lubricated?
This tool requires no hourly or daily lubrication because it has a grease-packed lubrication system. It should be relubricated regularly. Send the complete tool to a Makita Authorized or Factory Service Center for this lubrication service.
What are some of the recommended optional accessories?
Bull point, cold chisel, scaling chisel, clay spade, rammer, bit grease, dust extractor attachment, safety goggles, and hammer carrier.
