methodandmaybeusedforcomparingonetoolwith
another.
NOTE: The declared noise emission value(s)
mayalsobeusedinapreliminaryassessmentof
exposure.
WARNING: Wear ear protection.
WARNING: The noise emission during actual
use of the power tool can di󰀨er from the declared
value(s) depending on the ways in which the
tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is
processed.
WARNING: Be sure to identify safety mea-
sures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of
use (taking account of all parts of the operating
cycle such as the times when the tool is switched
o󰀨 and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time).

perform sanding operations.
6. Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier
safety data.
7. Use of this tool to sand some products, paints
and wood could expose user to dust contain-
ing hazardous substances. Use appropriate
respiratory protection.

Important safety instructions for
battery cartridge
1. Before using battery cartridge, read all instruc-
tions and cautionary markings on (1) battery
charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.
2. Do not disassemble or tamper with the battery
cartridge.Itmayresultinare,excessiveheat,
or explosion.
3. If operating time has become excessively
shorter, stop operating immediately. It may
result in a risk of overheating, possible burns
and even an explosion.
4.
If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them out
with clear water and seek medical attention right
away. It may result in loss of your eyesight.
5. Do not short the battery cartridge:
(1) Do not touch the terminals with any con-
ductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a con-
tainer with other metal objects such as
nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water
or rain.
A battery short can cause a large current
ow, overheating, possible burns and even a
breakdown.
6. Do not store and use the tool and battery car-
tridge in locations where the temperature may
reach or exceed 50 °C (122 °F).
7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if
it is severely damaged or is completely worn
out. The battery cartridge can explode in a re.
8. Do not nail, cut, crush, throw, drop the battery
cartridge, or hit against a hard object to the
battery cartridge.Suchconductmayresultina
re,excessiveheat,orexplosion.
9. Do not use a damaged battery.
10.
The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject to
the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.
Forcommercialtransportse.g.bythirdparties,
forwardingagents,specialrequirementonpack-
aging and labeling must be observed.
Forpreparationoftheitembeingshipped,consultingan
expertforhazardousmaterialisrequired.Pleasealso
observepossiblymoredetailednationalregulations.

9ENGLISH
11. When disposing the battery cartridge, remove
it from the tool and dispose of it in a safe
place. Follow your local regulations relating to
disposal of battery.
12. Use the batteries only with the products
specied by Makita. Installing the batteries to
non-compliantproductsmayresultinare,exces-
siveheat,explosion,orleakofelectrolyte.
13. If the tool is not used for a long period of time,
the battery must be removed from the tool.
14. During and after use, the battery cartridge may
take on heat which can cause burns or low
temperature burns. Pay attention to the han-
dling of hot battery cartridges.
15. Do not touch the terminal of the tool imme-
diately after use as it may get hot enough to
cause burns.
16. Do not allow chips, dust, or soil stuck into the
terminals, holes, and grooves of the battery
cartridge.Itmaycauseheating,catchingre,
burstandmalfunctionofthetoolorbatterycar-
tridge,resultinginburnsorpersonalinjury.
17. Unless the tool supports the use near
high-voltage electrical power lines, do not use
the battery cartridge near high-voltage electri-
cal power lines.Itmayresultinamalfunctionor
breakdownofthetoolorbatterycartridge.
18. Keep the battery away from children.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION: Only use genuine Makita batteries.
Useofnon-genuineMakitabatteries,orbatteriesthat
havebeenaltered,mayresultinthebatterybursting
causingres,personalinjuryanddamage.Itwill
alsovoidtheMakitawarrantyfortheMakitatooland
charger.
Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice
less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-
tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery
service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-
perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let
a hot battery cartridge cool down before
charging it.
4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove
it from the tool or the charger.
5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).

Tool / battery protection system
Thetoolisequippedwithatool/batteryprotectionsys-
tem.Thissystemautomaticallycutso󰀨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o󰀨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. Turnthetoolo󰀨,andthenturnit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.
Switch action
CAUTION: Avoid turning the tool on while it
is placed on the workpiece or on your workbench.
Itmaycausepersonalinjuryordamage.
Turning the tool on and o󰀨
Press the power/speed select button to start the tool.
The tool starts to run at its highest orbital speed.
Press the stop button to stop the tool.
►Fig.3: 1. Power/speed select button 2. Stop button
Changing the tool speed
The orbital speed can be changed in two modes; high
and low. Choose either mode depending on the applica-
tion and workload.
Press the power/speed select button to switch speed
mode while the tool is running.

Speed level Orbital per minute
2 (High) 14,000 min-1 (/min)
1 (Low) 11,000 min-1 (/min)
NOTICE: If the tool is operated continuously
at low speeds for a long time, the motor will get
overloaded, resulting in tool malfunction.
NOTICE: Select an appropriate speed range for
your sanding operations to avoid overheating
and melting the workpiece. Sanding at high orbital
speedmayheatworkpieceandmeltitatthepointof
contact.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is
switched o󰀨 and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.

sanding operation.
NOTE:Bendingthepaperbeforehandmakesattach-
ment easier.
Using hook-and-loop abrasive paper
CAUTION: Make sure to install a hook-and-
loop pad correctly and securely. A loose attach-
mentwillrunoutofbalanceandcauseanexcessive
vibrationresultinginlossofcontrol.
CAUTION: Be sure that a hook-and-loop pad
and abrasive paper are aligned and securely
attached.
CAUTION: Only use hook-and-loop abrasive
papers. Never use pressure-sensitive abrasive
