Sanding Operation; Maintenance - Makita M9200 Instruction Manual

OPERATION

Sanding operation

► Fig.3
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.
