Makita 900BL Sander User Manual


 
Operation
I
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and
then apply the wheel or disc to the work-
piece.
In general, keep the edge of the wheel or
disc
at
an angle of about 15" to the work-
piece surface.
During the break-in period with
a
new
wheel, do not work the grinder in the
B
direction or
it
will cut into the workpiece.
Once the edge of the wheel has been
rounded off by use, the wheel may be
worked in both A and
B
directions.
WARNING:
It
should never be necessary to force
the
tool. The weight of the tool applies adequate
pressure. Forcing and excessive pressure could cause dangerous wheel breakage.

Continued use of
a
worn-out wheel may result in wheel explosion and serious personal
injury. Depressed center wheel should not be used after
it
has been worn down to
11
5 mm (4-1/2") in diameter. Use of the wheel after this point
is
unsafe and
it
should
be removed from service and rendered unusable by intentional destruction.
