CAUTION:
• When installing the belt, make sure that the direction of
the arrow on the back of the belt corresponds to the one
on the tool itself.
Adjusting belt tracking
While the belt is running, use the adjusting knob to center the
belt tracking. Failure to do so can result in frayed belt edges
and wear on the sander frame.
Dust bag
Attach the dust bag onto the dust spout. The dust spout is
tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it onto the dust
spout firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from coming off
during operation.
When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag
from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust bag of
its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove particles adher-
ing to the insides which might hamper further collection.
NOTE:
• If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool,
more efficient and cleaner operations can be performed.
