Open the paper clamp by raising on the lever to release
from the locking port and then Insert the paper end into
the clamping part, aligning the paper edges even and
parallel with the sides of the base. (Bending the paper
beforehand makes attachment easier). Once the paper
is in place, return the lever to its original position.
Repeat the same process for the other end of the base,
maintaining the proper paper tension.
After inserting the paper, make sure the clamping part hold
it securely. Otherwise the paper will be loose and subject
to slippage, resulting in uneven sanding operation.
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 and/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 surface. A finishing sander is generally used
to remove only a small amount of material at a time.
Since the quality of the surface is more important than
the amount of stock removed, do not bear down on the
tool. Keep the base flush with the workpiece at all times.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspec-
tion 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.
