SAFETY WARNINGS General power tool safety warnings WARNING Read all safety warnings, instruc- tions, illustrations and specications provided with this power tool.Failuretofollowallinstructionslisted belowmayresultinelectricshock,reand/orserious injury. Save all warnings and instruc- tions for future reference. Theterm"powertool"inthewarningsreferstoyour mains-operated(corded)powertoolorbattery-operated (cordless) power tool. Cordless drywall sander safety warnings Safety Warnings Common for Sanding Operations:

1. This power tool is intended to function as a

sander. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specications provided with this power tool.Failuretofollowallinstructions listedbelowmayresultinelectricshock,reand/ orseriousinjury.

2. Operations such as grinding, wire brush-

ing, polishing or cutting-o󰀨 are not recom- mended to be performed with this power tool. Operations for which the power tool was not designedmaycreateahazardandcauseper- sonalinjury.

3. Do not use accessories which are not speci-

cally designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer.Justbecausetheaccessorycan beattachedtoyourpowertool,itdoesnotassure safe operation.

4. The rated speed of the accessory must be at

least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool.Accessoriesrunningfasterthan theirratedspeedcanbreakandyapart.

5. The outside diameter and the thickness of your

accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power tool.Incorrectlysizedaccessories cannotbeadequatelyguardedorcontrolled.

6. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each

use inspect the accessory such as pad for cracks, tear or excess wear. If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspect- ing and installing an accessory, position your- self and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damagedaccessorieswillnormallybreakapart during this test time.

7. Wear personal protective equipment.

Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appro- priate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stop- ping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. Theeyeprotectionmustbecapableofstopping yingdebrisgeneratedbyvariousoperations. Thedustmaskorrespiratormustbecapableof ltratingparticlesgeneratedbyyouroperation.

8. Keep bystanders a safe distance away from

work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragmentsofworkpieceorofabrokenaccessory mayyawayandcauseinjurybeyondimmediate area of operation.

9. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

10. Position the cord clear of the spinning acces-

sory.Ifyoulosecontrol,thecordmaybecutor snaggedandyourhandorarmmaybepulledinto thespinningaccessory.

11. Never lay the power tool down until the acces-

sory has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessorymaygrabthesurfaceandpullthe powertooloutofyourcontrol.

12. Do not run the power tool while carrying it at

your side.Accidentalcontactwiththespinning accessorycouldsnagyourclothing,pullingthe accessoryintoyourbody.

13. Do not operate the power tool near ammable

materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

WARNING: DO NOT let comfort or familiarity

with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. 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.Itmayresultinare,excessiveheat, 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 atten- tion 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.Suchconductmayresultina re,excessiveheat,orexplosion.

9. Do not use a damaged battery.

10. The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject

to the Dangerous Goods Legislation require- ments. Forcommercialtransportse.g.bythirdparties, forwardingagents,specialrequirementonpack- agingandlabelingmustbeobserved. Forpreparationoftheitembeingshipped,consult- inganexpertforhazardousmaterialisrequired. Pleasealsoobservepossiblymoredetailed national regulations. Tapeormasko󰀨opencontactsandpackupthe batteryinsuchamannerthatitcannotmove around in the packaging.

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.11 ENGLISH

12. Use the batteries only with the products

specied by Makita.Installingthebatteriesto non-compliantproductsmayresultinare,exces- siveheat,explosion,orleakofelectrolyte.

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.Itmaycauseheating,catchingre, burstandmalfunctionofthetoolorbatterycar- tridge,resultinginburnsorpersonalinjury.

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.Itmayresultinamalfunctionor breakdownofthetoolorbatterycartridge.

18. Keep the battery away from children.

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). Important safety instructions for wireless unit
