MAKITA TW1000 (01) PDF Document

The specifications for the MAKITA TW1000 are as follows:

The tool is intended for fastening bolts and nuts.

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 single-phase AC supply. They are double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire.

The switch is reversible, providing either clockwise or counterclockwise rotation.

To start the tool, simply pull the lower part (A) of the switch trigger for clockwise or the upper part (B) for counterclockwise.

Release the switch trigger to stop.

Caution: Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when released. Change the direction of rotation only when the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing it before the tool stops may damage the tool.

Fit the side grip into the groove on the hammer case and fasten securely. The grooves for the side grip installation are located in two positions. Install it at the proper position according to your work.

Caution: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

To install the socket, push it onto the anvil of the tool until it locks into place.

To remove the socket, simply pull it off.

Caution: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before installing or removing the socket.

1. Move the O-ring out of the groove in the socket and remove the pin from the socket.

2. Fit the socket onto the anvil of the tool so that the hole in the socket is aligned with the hole in the anvil.

3. Insert the pin through the hole in the socket and anvil.

4. Then return the O-ring to the original position in the socket groove to retain the pin.

5. To remove the socket, follow the installation procedures in reverse.

The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of factors including the following. After fastening, always check the torque with a torque wrench.

1. Voltage: Voltage drop will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.

2. Socket: Failure to use the correct size socket will cause a reduction in the fastening torque. A worn socket (wear on the hex end or square end) will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.

3. Bolt: Even though the torque coefficient and the class of bolt are the same, the proper fastening torque will differ according to the diameter of bolt. Even though the diameters of bolts are the same, the proper fastening torque will differ according to the torque coefficient, the class of bolt and the bolt length.

4. Universal Joint/Extension Bar: The use of the universal joint or the extension bar somewhat reduces the fastening force of the impact wrench. Compensate by fastening for a longer period of time.

5. Holding Position: The manner of holding the tool or the material of driving position to be fastened will affect the torque.

1. Hold the tool firmly and place the socket over the bolt or nut.

2. Turn the tool on and fasten for the proper fastening time.

3. Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut.

Note: Excessive fastening torque may damage the bolt/nut or socket. Before starting your job, always perform a test operation to determine the proper fastening time for your bolt or nut. The proper fastening torque may differ depending upon the kind or size of the bolt, the material of the workpiece to be fastened, etc.

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes.

1. Remove the protector.

2. Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps.

3. Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps.

Caution: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

In addition to general safety rules, follow these specific instructions for the tool:

1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

2. Wear ear protectors.

3. Check the socket carefully for wear, cracks or damage before installation.

4. Hold the tool firmly.

5. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.

6. The proper fastening torque may differ depending upon the kind or size of the bolt. Check the torque with a torque wrench.

The following accessories or attachments are recommended for use with your Makita tool:

• Extension bar

• Side grip

• Socket

• Plastic carrying case

Caution: The use of any other accessories or attachments might present a risk of injury to persons. Only use accessory or attachment for its stated purpose.
