Using your Makita 18V LXT XVP01R1B Polisher/Sander Kit is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Insert the battery into the tool. Then, select the right speed for your job using the dual - speed selector. For polishing, use lower speeds, and for sanding, you can go for higher ones. Press the variable speed trigger to start the tool, and you can use the power lock - on for continuous operation. When changing pads, use the spindle lock button. Here are some important things to note. Always keep the power switch locked off when inserting or removing the battery to avoid accidental start - up. Don't use the tool in extremely wet or dusty conditions, but thanks to XPT™, it can handle harsher environments than most. To maintain your tool, clean it regularly. Remove any dust or debris from the air vent intake covers. Check the pads for wear and replace them when needed. Charge the battery as soon as the L.E.D. indicator shows a low charge. Keep the battery in a cool, dry place when not in use.
