Frequently Asked Questions - 13/05/2026
Response Notice-Facile

The official manual for the Makita 9741J does not contain a detailed electrical diagram or wiring diagram specifying the color codes of the wires. This tool is designed as a sealed unit where all internal electrical connections are pre-assembled at the factory, with no user intervention required on the electrical circuit.

Electrical information available in the technical documentation:

  • The Makita 9741J has double insulation (class /II), which means it does not require a ground wire to operate safely
  • It operates only on single-phase alternating current (AC), that is, on standard domestic power
  • The supply voltage must match exactly what is stated on the nameplate affixed to the device
  • The connection is made via the power cord supplied with the tool, with a standard plug suitable for your country

How to check electrical specifications: Refer to the adhesive nameplate affixed to the body of the Makita 9741J. You will find: the voltage in volts (V), the frequency in hertz (Hz), and the maximum amperage. This information corresponds to the characteristics of your domestic or professional power supply.

For any questions regarding the connection or intervention on the internal electrical connections, contact Makita technical support (support@makita.fr) or consult a qualified electrician. Never attempt to modify or open the electrical circuits of this tool without proper training, as this could damage the protective double insulation and create a risk of electric shock.

GEB146-1

WHEEL SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS

  1. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the wheel may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

  2. Always use safety glasses or goggles. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses.

  3. Inspect for and remove foreign matter such as nails, screws, etc. from the workpiece surface before operation.

  4. Secure the workpiece firmly.

  5. Do not wear gloves during operation.

  6. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.

  7. Keep hands away from rotating parts.

  8. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

- Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

Adjusting front roller (Fig. 1)

The front roller allows you to apply uniform pressure to the workpiece. To adjust the front roller, set the tool on a flat surface and loosen the wing nut. Adjust the front roller up or down until the clearance distance (D) is about 2 mm. Tighten the wing nut securely.

Switch action (Fig. 2)

CAUTION:

- Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.

To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.

For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button.

To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

- Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing wheel (Fig. 3 & 4)

To remove the wheel, insert one hex wrench into the end of the spindle and another hex wrench into the end of the output shaft. Turn the hex wrench in the output shaft clockwise while securely holding the hex wrench in the spindle so that the wheel cannot revolve. Pull the output shaft out from the wheel. Move the wheel slightly away from the spindle and remove the wheel from the tool.

NOTE:

- The output shaft has a left hand thread.

To install the wheel, follow the removal procedures in reverse. When installing it, be sure to align the notches in the wheel with the pins on the spindle.

Connecting to dust collector (Fig. 5)

The use of a dust collector makes sanding operations clean and dust collection easy. To connect a dust collector, open the dust port by sliding the cover plate up and in a clockwise direction. Attach the joint onto the dust port. Now a dust collector can be connected to this tool.

CAUTION:

- When not using a dust collector, close the dust port opening with the cover plate.

OPERATION (Fig. 6)

Hold the tool firmly with both hands on the handle and the grip in front. Place the tool on the workpiece surface and move the tool gently forward and backward while applying slight downward pressure.

CAUTION:

  • The tool should not be in contact with the workpiece surface when you turn the tool on or off. Damage to the tool or the workpiece surface and injury to the operator may result.
  • Apply slight downward pressure only. Excessive pressure may decrease tool efficiency, shorten wheel service life and possibly gouge the workpiece surface.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

  • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
  • Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.

Replacing carbon brushes

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace them when they are worn 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.

(Fig. 7)

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. (Fig. 8)

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.
