NOTE: Some items in the list may be included in the tool package as standard accessories. They may differ from country to country. Installing or removing battery cartridge CAUTION • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking function on the tool. • Always switch off the tool before installing or removing of the battery cartridge. • Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when installing or removing battery cartridge.
CAUTION • Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around you. • Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly. Battery Protection System The battery is provided with a protection system for automatically turning output OFF to extend the life of the battery.
Using the USB adapter (optional accessory) 1 1 2 1: DC jack 2: DC jack plug 1: DC jack cover 1. Make sure that the product is turned OFF and remove the DC jack cover. Then, connect the DC jack plug of the power supply cable to the DC jack. Connect the battery to the USB adapter. Turn the power switch on the USB adapter ON, then turn the power switch on this product ON. 2. 3.
Using the Multi Line Laser 1. Installing the Multi Line Laser Set this product on a level surface. Turn the adjustment screw leg so that the bubble in the circular level comes to the center of the red circle. Circular level When using the tripod, first set down the tripod. Then mount the line laser on it. Extend or retract the legs of the tripod so that the bubble in the level comes to the center of the red circle. WARNING 1.
2. Operating the power switch 1. Power switch 1 [Power ON] Turn the power switch to the "I/ON" side. The laser beam is emitted. The laser beam is emitted in the mode that was active when the product was turned OFF last time. [Power OFF] Turn the power switch to the "O/OFF" side. The power turns OFF, and the pendulum inside is locked. After turning the power OFF, disconnect the battery or DC jack. 3.
Bright: The line beam is brighter in this mode. Normal: Brightness is between the Eco and Bright modes. This is the optimum mode when using the receiver. Eco: Battery life lasts longer in this mode. 1 1: Brightness indicator [Loopback switch system] Bright Mode Bright Normal Eco Brightness Red indicator LED lit LED out Green LED lit 4. Line beam mode selection Select the line beam emission mode by the line selection switch on the operation panel.
SK209GD [Loopback switch system] Lower dot beam Lower dot beam NOTE: The height of the horizontal line beam can be easily adjusted by using the tripod (optional accessory). 1: Fine-adjustment knob 1 Fine-adjustment mechanism It can be fine-adjusted from either side by turning the fine-adjustment knob. NOTE: About the rubber foot caps Use the rubber caps to prevent the floor from being scratched or when the floor is slippery. Rubber caps are supplied as standard.
CHECKING THE ACCURACY ■ Should the line laser exceed the permissible difference during the checking, contact the store of purchase or a Makita authorized service center. 1. Checking the horizontal line B A 5m 1. Place the line laser near the center of a room with approx. 5 m walls. 2. Adjust the line laser so that the bubble in the level comes to the center of the red circle. 3. Mark A at the position of the horizontal laser line on the wall. 4.
2. Checking the plumbing point and vertical line 1. Set the "plumb" on the wall approx. 3 m above the floor. 2. Place the line laser 3 to 5 m away from the wall. 3. Adjust the attitude so that the bubble in the level comes to the center of the red circle. 4. Set the laser beam mode either the "vertical line" or "2-vertical line". 5. Rotate the line laser observing the plumbing point on the ceiling. The result is normal if the plumbing point moves only within the width of the laser line. 6.
3. Checking the 180°vertical line C B A 1. Make a mark on the floor near the center of a room with 4 to 6 m walls. 2. Emit the vertical line beam. 3. Mark A near the center of the vertical laser line on the right wall, and mark B near the center of the "90°vertical laser line" on the front wall. Mark C near the center of the "180°vertical laser line" on the left wall. C B D A 4.
4. Checking the 90°vertical line C B A 1. Make a mark on the floor near the center of a room with 4 to 6 m walls. 2. Emit all vertical line beams. 3. Mark A near the center of the vertical line on the right wall, and mark B near the center of the "90°vertical line" on the front wall. Mark C near the center of the "180°vertical line" on the left wall. C’ B C 4.
[SK209GD] C B 1. Make a mark on the floor near the center of a room with 4 to 6 m walls. 2. Emit all vertical line beams. 3. Mark B and C near the center of the vertical line on the front and left wall. C D B A B’ 4. Align the vertical line on the front with C, and mark D near the center of the rear wall. 5. Likewise, mark A and B’. 6. The result is normal if the difference between B and B’ is within 3 mm.
MAINTENANCE CAUTION Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, any maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
