Overload protection
When the tool is overloaded and temperature of the tool
or the battery cartridge reaches a certain level, the front
lamp blinks and the tool automatically stops. Remove
a cause of overload, and cool down the tool and the
battery cartridge to restart.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing application
tool
Optional accessory
WARNING:
Do not install application tool
upside down. Installing application tool upside down
may damage the tool and cause serious personal
injury.
NOTE: Install application tool in the correct direc-
tion according to your work. Application tool can be
installed at an angle of every 30 degree.
To Install an application tool (optional accessory), put
the application tool on the tool flange so that the protru-
sions of the tool flange fit in the holes in the application
tool. Then secure the application tool by tightening the
bolt firmly with the hex wrench.

the application tool 3. Application tool instal-
lation bolt

To remove the application tool, loosen and remove the
application tool installation bolt using a hex wrench and
then take off the application tool.
When using the tool as a sander, set a sanding paper
on the sanding pad (hook and loop fitting).
Make sure that their shape and dust extraction holes
match each other when setting.

To remove the sanding paper, raise its end and peel it
off.
When using application tools with a different type of
installation section, use a correct adapter (optional
accessory).

When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the
figure to keep it from being lost.
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.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the tool with press-
ing the battery cartridge against the tool.
Cutting, sawing and scraping
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.
► Fig.11
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.
NOTE: Before cutting operation, it is recommended to
preset the orbital stroke rate 3 - 5.
Sanding
CAUTION:
Do not reuse a sanding paper used
for sanding metal to sand wood.
CAUTION:
Do not use a worn sanding paper
or sanding paper without grit.
Apply a sanding paper on the workpiece.
► Fig.12
NOTE: Using a test material sample to try is recom-
mendable to determine a correct orbital stroke rate
suitable for your work.
NOTE: Use a sanding paper with the same grit until
sanding the whole workpiece is completed. Replacing
a sanding paper with different grit sanding paper may
not get a fine finish.
Dust extraction attachment
Optional accessory
CAUTION:
Do not use the dust extraction
attachment when sanding metal. Sucking spark
and hot particle results in smoking and ignition.
