Using the Makita 18V LXT Starter Pack is a breeze. First, charge the batteries using the included charger. It takes about 90 minutes to fully charge a 4.0Ah battery. You can easily check the charge level of the battery with the integrated L.E.D. indicator. When using the impact driver or the angle grinder, make sure the battery is properly inserted. For the angle grinder, take advantage of the X - LOCK system for quick blade changes. When working, always wear appropriate safety gear like goggles and gloves. As for maintenance, keep the tools clean after each use. Wipe off any dust or debris. For the batteries, store them in a cool, dry place. Avoid over - charging or over - discharging them as the STAR Protection system helps protect against these, but it's still good practice. If you're not using the tools for a long time, charge the batteries every few months to prevent self - discharge. Remember, this product is only compatible with Star Protection tools, so check for the Star Symbol™ and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool before use.
