Dust bag
The use of the dust bag makes sanding operations clean and
dust collection easy. To attach the dust bag, fit the bag’s
entry port onto the dust spout on the tool. Make sure that the
hole in the bag’s entry port is just over the pimple-like protru-
sion on the dust spout.
For the best results, empty the dust bag when it becomes
approximately half full, tapping it lightly to remove as much
dust as possible.
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,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other mainte-
nance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Autho-
rized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita
