OPERATION
Sanding operation (Fig. 5)
CAUTION:
• Never switch on the tool when it is in contact with the
workpiece, it may cause an injury to operator.
• Never run the tool without the abrasive disc. You may
seriously damage the pad.
• Never force the tool. Excessive pressure may decrease
the sanding efficiency, damage the abrasive disc or
shorten tool life.
• Using the tool with the pad edge contacting the work-
piece may damage the pad.
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and wait until it
attains full speed. Then gently place the tool on the work-
piece surface. Keep the pad flush with the workpiece and
apply slight pressure on the tool.
CAUTION:
• The sanding pad rotates clockwise during the loaded
operation, but it may rotate counterclockwise during the
no-load operation.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
maintenance or adjustment should be performed by
Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.

• The declared vibration emission value has been mea-
sured in accordance with the standard test method and
may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
