Using the Makita 18V LXT® Cordless Tower Work Light DML813 is a breeze. First, unfold the tower to its full height of 7 - 1/4 feet. Then, insert a fully - charged 18V LXT® Lithium - Ion battery (sold separately) into the lockable battery compartment. You can choose from three lighting modes - High, Medium, or Low according to your needs. The adjustable head can be rotated vertically 220 degrees and pivoted horizontally 230 degrees, so just turn it to the direction where you need light. When you're done, fold the tower back up. You can use the shoulder strap or handles to carry it around easily. As for maintenance, keep the light clean and dry. Since it's dust and water - resistant (IP55 rated), it can handle tough job site conditions, but still avoid long - term exposure to extreme wetness or dirt. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and safety. And remember, it comes with a 3 - year limited warranty, so if you have any issues, you can reach out to the support team.
