ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-

tery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work

on the tool.

Installing or removing application tool (optional

accessory) (Fig. 7, 8, 9 & 10)

WARNING:

• Do not install application tool upside down. Installing

application tool upside down may damage the tool and

cause serious personal injury.

• Install attachment tool in the correct direction according

to your work. Application tool can be installed at an

angle of every 30 degree.

CAUTION:

• Be careful when closing the lock lever. The lock lever

may close suddenly and pinch your finger.

• Clean up dust and perform lubrication on the moving

part of the lock lever from time to time.

Otherwise dust may accumulate in the moving part of

the lock lever and hinder its smooth movement.

• Do not start the tool while the lever opens. The tool

may be damaged.

1. Open the lock lever fully. And remove the holder

bolt.

2. Put an application tool (optional accessory) on the

tool flange so that the protrusions of the tool flange

fit in the holes in the application tool.

3. Insert the holder bolt till it stops. And then, return the

lock lever to its original position.

When using sanding application tool, mount the applica-

tion tool on the sanding pad so that it matches the sand-

ing pad direction.

The sanding pad has a hook and loop type fitting system

which allows easy and rapid fitting of a sanding paper.

As sanding papers have holes for dust extraction, mount

a sanding paper so that the holes in a sanding paper

match those in the sanding pad.

To remove a sanding paper, raise its end and peel it off.

To remove the holder bolt, follow the installation proce-

dures in reverse.

When using application tools with a different type of

installation section, use a correct adapter (optional

accessory).

OPERATION

WARNING:

• Before starting the tool and during operation, keep your

hand and face away from the application tool.

CAUTION:

• Do not apply excessive load to the tool which may

cause a motor lock and stop the tool.

Cutting, sawing and scraping (Fig. 11)

CAUTION:

• Do not move on the tool forcibly in the direction (eg.

towards either side) of tool application with no cutting

edge. It may damage the tool.

Put the application tool on the workpiece.

And then move the tool forward so that the application

tool movement does not slow down.

NOTE:

• Forcing or excessive pressure on the tool may reduce

efficiency.

• Before cutting operation, it is recommended to preset

the orbital stroke rate 4 – 6.

• Remove sawdust by drawing the tool adequately. It

increases work efficiency.

• The round saw is recommended for cutting long

straight line.

Sanding (Fig. 12)

CAUTION:

• Do not reuse a sanding paper used for sanding metal

to sand wood.

• Do not use a worn sanding paper or sanding paper

without grit.

Apply a sanding paper on the workpiece.

NOTE:

• Using a test material sample to try is recommendable

to determine a correct orbital stroke rate suitable for

your work.

• Use a sanding paper with the same grit until sanding

the whole workpiece is completed. Replacing a sand-

ing paper with different grit sanding paper may not get

a fine finish.

Dust extraction attachment (optional accessory)

(Fig. 13 & 14)

• Install dust nozzles and dust attachment.

• Install the nozzle band on the tool so that its protru-

sions fit in the holes in the tool to secure it.

• Put the felt ring and the sanding pad on the dust attach-

ment and then secure them with the application tool

installation bolt.

When you wish to perform cleaner operation, connect a

vacuum cleaner to your tool. Connect a hose of vacuum

cleaner to the dust extraction attachment (optional

accessory).

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-

tery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform

inspection or maintenance.
