Table 2

NOTE
The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature and power source voltage.

CAUTION
When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the  charging has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.

4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the receptacle.
5. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery.

NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use, and then keep it.

Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric  discharge might be low when using them the first and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2-3 times.

How to make the batteries perform longer.

1. Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted.
   When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and  exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.

2. Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
   A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

CAUTION

• If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the pilot lamp of the charger lights up green or lights for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for 0.5 seconds). In such a case, first let the battery cool, then start charging.
• When the pilot lamp flickers in red (at 0.2-seconds intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.

MOUNTING AND OPERATION

1. Removing and inserting the battery
   CAUTION
   Before installing or removing the battery, turn the switch to the OFF position.
   If the battery is inserted with the switch in the ON position, the motor will operate unexpectedly.

2. Installing the sanding paper
   Since the attachment is a hook-and-loop type, the sanding paper can be installed easily by just pressing it onto the pad. Gently pinch and hold together two places on the edges of the sanding paper so that two holes are visible on the bottom. (Fig. 4-a) Overlap the two holes of the sanding paper with two holes of the pad, and attach the whole surface of the sanding paper to the pad so that the remaining holes are also aligned. (Fig. 4-b)

3. Attaching the dust bag
   If too much dust accumulates in the dust bag, the dust collection power will be reduced.
   Dispose of dust as soon as possible.

4. Adjustment of speed
   The sander is equipped with an electric control circuit that enables speed control. To adjust the speed, turn the dial shown in Fig. 7. When the dial is set to “1”, the sander operates at the minimum speed (7000 /min). When the dial set to “6”, the sander operates at the maximum speed (11000 /min). Adjust the speed according to the material to be cut and working efficiency.Material| Grain| Dial scale

5. How to move the random orbit sander
   

CAUTION

• Immediately after use, always ensure that the switch is in the OFF position and pull out the battery.
• Since the sander may suck in dust and debris, be careful not to place it where there is much dust and debris when it is still spinning right after use.
• Looking from above, the sanding pad rotates clockwise during the loaded operation, but it may rotate counterclockwise during the no-load operation.
• Never run the tool without the sanding paper. You may seriously damage the pad.
• Using the tool with the pad edge contacting the workpiece may damage the pad.

NOTE
Movement of the sander may tend to become unsteady after new sanding paper has been installed, because of the new, coarse grain of the paper. This can be avoided by slightly tilting the sander forward or backward during sanding or polishing. Sander movement will become steady as the sanding paper surface becomes properly abraded.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING
Be sure to turned off the switch and remove the battery before maintenance and inspection.

1. Empting and cleaning the Dust Bag
   If the dust bag contains too much dust, dust collection will be affected. Empty the dust bag when it gets full.
   Remove the dust bag, open the closure band, and dispose of the contents. (Fig.

2. Inspecting the sanding paper
   Since use of worn-out sanding paper will degrade efficiency and cause possible damage to the pad, replace the sanding paper as soon a  excessive abrasion is noted.

3. Inspecting the mounting screws
   Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could result in serious hazard.

4. Maintenance of the motor
   The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

5. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)
   Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not collected on the terminals.
   On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
   CAUTION
   Remove any swarf or dust which may have collected on the terminals.
   Failure to do so may result in malfunction.

6. Cleaning on the outside
   WARNING
   Wear protective glasses and a dust mask when cleaning the filter with an air gun.
   Failure to do so may result in inhalation or exposure of the eyes to debris or dust.
   Use an air gun or other similar tool to remove materials, chips, etc. which have adhered to the body, and wipe with a soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for they melt plastics.

7. Storage
   Store the power tool and battery in a place in which the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of children.

NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with a low charge may result in performance deterioration, significantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, significantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to five times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.

CAUTION
In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country must be observed.
