Using your Makita 18V LXT Cordless 1/3 Sheet Finishing Sander is easy. First, make sure you have a compatible 18V LXT Lithium - Ion battery with a Star symbol (sold separately) inserted correctly. You can select the appropriate speed setting (4,000, 8,000, or 12,000 OPM) using the one - touch electronic speed control button according to your sanding needs. When sanding, move the sander smoothly across the surface to achieve an even finish. To change the sandpaper, use the quick - change clamp for a fast replacement. If you have an optional dust extractor, you can connect it to the sander using the Auto - start Wireless System (AWS®) with Bluetooth technology for a cleaner workspace. Remember these important notes. Only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the safety and performance of your tool. Avoid overloading, over - discharging, and over - heating the tool as the Star Protection Computer Controls™ are there to protect it, but it's still good practice. For maintenance, regularly clean the dust bag and the through - the - pad dust collection system to keep the sander working efficiently. Check the battery regularly and charge it when needed. Store your sander in a dry and cool place when not in use.
