OPERATION
WARNING:
- It should never be necessary to force the tool. The weight of the tool applies adequate pressure. Forcing and excessive pressure could cause dangerous wheel breakage.
- ALWAYS replace wheel if tool is dropped while grinding.
- NEVER bang or hit grinding disc or wheel onto work.
- Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can cause loss of control and kickback.
- NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades and other sawblades. Such blades when used on a grinder frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to personal injury.
CAUTION:
- After operation, always switch off the tool and wait until the wheel has come to a complete stop before putting the tool down.
Grinding and sanding operation
ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with one hand on rear handle and the other on the
side handle. Turn the tool on and then apply the wheel or disc to the
workpiece. In general, keep the edge of the wheel or disc at an angle of about
15 degrees to the workpiece surface. During the break-in period with a new
wheel, do not work the grinder in the B direction or it will cut into the
workpiece. Once the edge of the wheel has been rounded off by use, the wheel
may be worked in both A and B direction.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
- Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
The tool and its air vents have to be kept clean. Regularly clean the tool’s air vents or whenever the vents start to become obstructed.
Replacing carbon brushes
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear down to
the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical
carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take out the worn carbon
brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, any other maintenance or
adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
