Accidental re-start preventive
function
When any power source (e.g. the battery cartridge, etc.)
is connected to the tool while pressing the power but-
ton, the tool does not start.
To start the tool, press the power button again.
Tool / battery protection system
The tool is equipped with a tool/battery protection sys-
tem. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend tool and battery life. The tool will auto-
matically stop during operation if the tool or battery is
placed under one of the following conditions:
Overload protection
When the tool or battery is operated in a manner that
causes it to draw an abnormally high current, the tool
automatically stops without any indication. In this sit-
uation, turn the tool off and stop the application that
caused the tool to become overloaded. Then turn the
tool on to restart.
Overheat protection
When the tool or battery is overheated, the tool stops
automatically. In this case, let the tool and battery cool
before turning the tool on again.
Overdischarge protection
When the battery capacity is not enough, the tool stops
automatically. In this case, remove the battery from the
tool and charge the battery.
Protections against other causes
Protection system is also designed for other causes
that could damage the tool and allows the tool to stop
automatically. Take all the following steps to clear the
causes, when the tool has been brought to a temporary
halt or stop in operation.
1.
Make sure that all switch(es) is/are in the off posi-
tion, and then turn the tool on again to restart.
2.
Charge the battery(ies) or replace it/them with
recharged battery(ies).
3.
Let the tool and battery(ies) cool down.
If no improvement can be found by restoring protection
system, then contact your local Makita Service Center.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the pad saver
The pad saver prevents wear of the hook-and-loop on
the pad.
1.
To install the pad saver, remove all dirt and foreign
matter from the pad.
2.
Attach the pad saver to the pad aligning the
dust-suction holes in the pad saver with those in the
pad.
► Fig.5: 1. Pad saver 2. Pad 3. Dust-suction holes
When the hook-and-loop on the pad saver wears out,
remove the pad saver and install a new one.
To remove the pad saver, peel the pad saver off from
the edge.
Installing or removing abrasive
paper
CAUTION:
Make sure that the abrasive paper
is installed securely before use. Otherwise the
abrasive paper may be removed easily that causes
slipping and results uneven sanding operation.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the pad is installed
correctly and securely. A loose attachment will run
out of balance and cause an excessive vibration
resulting in loss of control.
CAUTION:
Be sure that a pad, pad saver and
abrasive paper are aligned and securely attached.
CAUTION:
Only use abrasive papers. Never
use pressure-sensitive abrasive papers.
NOTE: The abrasive paper can be attached also on
the pad directly.
1.
Remove all dirt and foreign matter from the pad
saver.
2.
Attach a abrasive sheet to the pad saver.
—
For paper type abrasive sheet with dust-suction
holes, align the dust-suction holes in the paper with
those in the pad saver.
—
For net type abrasive sheet, align the outer shape
with the pad saver.

suction holes
To remove the abrasive sheet, peel the abrasive sheet
off from the edge while holding the pad saver to prevent
it from being peeled together.
Protector
The protector prevents the pad, the tool housing and
the wall from being damaged when working near a wall.
► Fig.7: 1. Protector
To install the protector, align the tongue of the protector
with the groove, and push in the protector.
To remove the protector, pull the protector forward while
