Fit the wool bonnet completely over the rubber pad and
pull the string tight. Tie a bow knot and tuck the knot and
any loose strings between the wool bonnet and the rub-
ber pad.
To remove the wool bonnet, follow the installation proce-
dure in reverse.
OPERATION
Polishing operation (Fig. 6)
CAUTION:
• Always wear safety glasses or a face shield during
operation.
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and then apply the
wool bonnet to the workpiece.
In general, keep the wool bonnet at an angle of about
15 degrees to the workpiece surface.
Apply slight pressure only. Excessive pressure will result
in poor performance and premature wear to wool bonnet.
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 (Fig. 7 & 8)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear 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.
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.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-
formed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.

Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined according
to EN60745:
Sound pressure level (L
Sound power level (L
Uncertainty (K): 3 dB (A)
Wear ear protection
Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined
according to EN60745:
Work mode: polishing
Vibration emission (a
Uncertainty (K): 1.5 m/s
• The declared vibration emission value has been mea-
sured in accordance with the standard test method and
may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
• The declared vibration emission value is used for main
applications of the power tool. However if the power
tool is used for other applications, the vibration emis-
sion value may be different.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of
the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
