Dust bag
To install the dust bag, align the mark on the bag’s entry
port with the mark on the dust spout of the tool and fit the
entry port onto the dust spout. Then turn the dust bag clock-
wise to secure it in place.
For the best results, empty the dust bag when it becomes
approximately half full, tapping it lightly to remove as much
dust as possible.
NOTE:
• If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool,
more efficient and cleaner operations can be performed.
OPERATION
Sanding operation
CAUTION:
• Never run the tool without the abrasive paper. You may
seriously damage the pad.
• Never force the tool. Excessive pressure may decrease
the sanding efficiency, damage the abrasive paper or
shorten tool life.
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and wait until it attains
full speed. Then gently place the tool on the workpiece sur-
face. Keep the pad flush with the workpiece and apply slight
pressure on the tool.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, car-
bon brush inspection and replacement, any other mainte-
nance or adjustment should be performed by Makita
Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.
