Thank you for your question. The case included with the FD07R1 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 3/8" Driver-Drill Kit (2.0Ah) is for the products that come with the kit.

Why is proper drill bit tightening methodology missing from FD07 Instruction Manual? I'll answer my own question so that the following info will hopefully help other owners/would-be buyers who experience loosening of drill bits: I spoke with Makita phone tech support and confirmed that the proper way to tighten a drill bit in a Makita keyless chuck is to (1) tighten the bit fully by hand until you hear a ratcheting/clicking sound from the chuck, and then (2) back off (as if loosening) the clutch until you hear one single click. This will lock the chuck and prevent the bit from loosening. Unfortunately, this important info (i.e. Step 2) is omitted from the FD07 Instruction Manual, and something Makita needs to correct in future printings.
Thank you for your question/response. We will check into adding this information in the instruction manual.
I appreciate this information and agree that it should be included in the instructions. I will follow this process going forward.
