19. Stay alert
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense.
Do not operate tool when you are tired.
20. Check damaged parts
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly and per-
form its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction
manual. Have defective switches replaced by
and authorized service center. Do not use tool if
switch does not turn it on and off.
21. Warning
The use of any other accessory or attachment
other than recommended in this operating
instruction or the catalog may present a risk of
personal injury.
22. Have your tool repaired by an expert
This electric appliance is in accordance with the
relevant safety rules. Repairing of electric appli-
ances may be carried out only by experts other-

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

1. Hold the tool firmly.
2. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
3. This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not
use water on the workpiece surface.
4. Ventilate your work area adequately when you
perform sanding operations.
5. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator for
the material and application you are working
with.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Installing or removing abrasive paper (Fig. 1)
Important:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the paper.
Press the clamper. Insert the paper end into the clamper,
aligning the paper edges even and parallel with the sides
of the base. Then release the clamper.
Repeat the same process for the other end of the base,
maintaining the proper paper tension.
CAUTION:
After inserting the paper, make sure the teeth of the
clamper hold it securely. Otherwise the paper will be
loose and subject to slippage, resulting in uneven sand-
ing operation.
Switch action (Fig. 2)
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released.
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the trig-
ger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the trigger and
then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the
locked position, pull the trigger fully, then release it.
Operation (Fig. 3)
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and wait until it
attains full speed. Then gently place the tool on the work-
piece 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.
Excessive pressure may damage the paper and shorten
tool life.
You can put a high polish on furniture or other fine sur-
faces by using a cloth under the tool.
CAUTION:
• Do not block motor vent with your finger or hand.
• Never run the tool without paper. You may seriously
damage the pad.
When you wish to perform clean sanding operation, pro-
ceed as follows:
Place the punch plate (optional accessory) over the
paper so that the guide of the punch plate is flush with
the sides of the base. Then press the punch plate to
make holes in the paper. (Fig. 4)
Remove the cap from the dust spout on your tool and
connect a vacuum cleaner to your tool using a hose
(optional accessory). Be sure to read cleaner's instruc-
tion manual. (Fig. 5)

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
To maintain product safety and reliability, repairs, mainte-
nance or adjustment should be carried out by a Makita
Authorized Service Centre.
