tery pack into a tool with the switch on invites
accidents.
Work Area
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite acci-
dents.
9. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the tool on. A wrench or a
key that is left attached to a rotating part of
the tool may result in personal injury.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
10. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enable better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose control.
11. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must
be used for appropriate conditions.
Electrical Safety
4. A battery operated tool with integral bat-
teries or a separate battery pack must be
recharged only with the specified charger
for the battery. A charger that may be suit-
able for one type of battery may create a risk
of fire when used with another battery.
Tool Use and Care
12. Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead
to loss of control.
5. Use battery operated tool only with specif-
ically designated battery pack. Use of any
other batteries may create a risk of fire.
13. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for
your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
Personal Safety
6. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
14. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
on or off. A tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
15. Disconnect battery pack from tool or
place the switch in the locked or off posi-
tion before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the tool accidentally.
7. Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
16. Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
8. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch
is in the locked or off position before
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or inserting the bat-

model. Accessories that may be suitable for
one tool may create a risk of injury when
used on another tool.
SERVICE
18. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools with sharp cutting edge are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
21. Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or main-
tenance performed by unqualified personnel
may result in a risk of injury.
19. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the tool ser-
viced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
22. When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
shock or injury.
20. Use only accessories that are recom-
mended by the manufacturer for your
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
USB022-2

exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.
7. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the
tool only when hand-held.
8. Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece
immediately after operation; they may be
extremely hot and could burn your skin.
9. Some material contains chemicals which
may be toxic. Take caution to prevent
working dust inhalation and skin contact.
Follow material supplier safety data.
2. Be aware that this tool is always in an
operating condition, because it does not
have to be plugged into an electrical out-
let.
3. Always be sure you have a firm footing.
4. Be sure no one is below when using the
tool in high locations.
5. Hold the tool firmly.
6. Keep hands away from rotating parts.

3. When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light
color will change from green to red and charging will
begin. The charging light will remain lit steadily during
charging.
4. When the charging light color changes from red to
green, the charging cycle is complete.
5. If you leave the battery cartridge in the charger after the
charging cycle is complete, the charger will switch into
its “trickle charge (maintenance charge)” mode.
6. After charging, unplug the charger from the power
source.
8
NOTE:
•
The battery charger is for charging Makita battery
cartridge. Never use it for other purposes or for other
manufacturer’s batteries.
•
When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery
cartridge which has not been used for a long period of
time, it may not accept a full charge. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem. You can
recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging it
completely and recharging a couple of times.
•
•
If you charge a battery cartridge from a just operated
tool or a battery cartridge which has been left in a
location exposed to direct sunlight or heat for a long
time, the charging light may flash in red color. If this
occurs, wait for a while. Charging will begin after the
battery cartridge cools. The battery cartridge will cool
faster if you remove the battery cartridge from the
battery charger.
If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red
color, charging is not possible. The terminals on the
charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or the
battery cartridge is worn out or damaged.
Trickle charge (Maintenance charge)
If you leave the battery cartridge in the charger to prevent
spontaneous discharging after full charge, the charger will
switch into its “trickle charge (maintenance charge)” mode
and keep the battery cartridge fresh and fully charged.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely dis-
charged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery car-
tridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at
10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride battery cartridge when
you do not use it for more than six months.

•
If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15
minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
Drilling operation
First, turn the adjusting ring so that the pointer points to the
marking. Then proceed as follows.
Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with
wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw
makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, make
an indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the point
to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the indentation and
start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions
are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION:
•
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the
drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve to
damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool
performance and shorten the service life of the tool.
•
•
There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at the
time of hole break through. Hold the tool firmly and exert
care when the bit begins to break through the workpiece.
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back out.
13
However, the tool may back out abruptly if you do not
hold it firmly.
•
•
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold-
down device.
If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15
minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.

WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those
dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
MAKITA LIMITED ONE YEAR WARRANTY
Warranty Policy
Every Makita tool is thoroughly inspected and tested before leaving the factory. It is warranted to be free of
defects from workmanship and materials for the period of ONE YEAR from the date of original purchase.
Should any trouble develop during this one year period, return the COMPLETE tool, freight prepaid, to one of
Makita’s Factory or Authorized Service Centers. If inspection shows the trouble is caused by defective
workmanship or material, Makita will repair (or at our option, replace) without charge.
This Warranty does not apply where:
• repairs have been made or attempted by others:
• repairs are required because of normal wear and tear:
• the tool has been abused, misused or improperly maintained:
• alterations have been made to the tool.
IN NO EVENT SHALL MAKITA BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES FROM THE SALE OR USE OF THE PRODUCT. THIS DISCLAIMER APPLIES BOTH DURING
AND AFTER THE TERM OF THIS WARRANTY.
MAKITA DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
“MERCHANTABILITY” AND “FITNESS FOR A SPECIFIC PURPOSE,” AFTER THE ONE YEAR TERM OF THIS
WARRANTY.
This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above
limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. Some states do not allow limitation on how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
