Installing or removing pad
Optional accessory
CAUTION:
Only use hook-and-loop system
pads for polishing.
► Fig.8: 1. Pad
To install the pad, first remove all dirt and foreign mat-
ter from the hook-and-loop system of the pad and the
backing pad. Attach the pad to the backing pad so that
their edges are aligned.
To remove the pad from the backing pad, just pull up
from its edge.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the pad and
backing pad are aligned and securely attached.
Otherwise the pad will cause a excessive vibration
which may cause loss of control or the pad may be
thrown out from the tool.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Only use Makita genuine pads for
polishing.
CAUTION:
Make sure the work material is
secured and stable. Falling object may cause
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly with one hand
on the switch handle and the other hand on the
front grip (or side handle) when performing the tool.
CAUTION:
Do not run the tool at high load
over an extended time period. It may result in tool
malfunction which causes electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to touch the rotating part.
NOTICE:
Never force the tool. Excessive pressure
may lead to decreased polishing efficiency, damaged
pad, or shorten tool life.
NOTICE:
Continuous operation at high speed
may damage work surface.
Polishing operation
► Fig.9
1. Surface treatment (Random orbit with forced
rotation mode)
Use a wool pad for rough finishing then use a sponge
pad for fine finishing.
2. Applying wax (Random orbit mode)
Use a sponge pad. Apply wax to the sponge pad or work
surface. Run the tool at low speed to smooth out wax.
CAUTION:
Do not apply excessive wax or
polishing agent. It will generate more dust and may
cause eye or respiratory diseases.
NOTE: First, perform a test waxing on an inconspicuous
portion of the work surface. Make sure that the tool will
not scratch the surface or result in uneven waxing before.
3. Removing wax (Random orbit mode)
Use another sponge pad. Run the tool to remove wax.
4. Polishing (Random orbit mode)
Apply a felt pad gently to the work surface.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
Cleaning dust covers
► Fig.10: 1. Dust cover
Regularly clean the dust covers on the inhalation vents
for smooth air circulation. Remove the dust covers and
clean the mesh.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
