CAUTION: on lithium-ion battery
To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery
equips with the protection function to stop the
output. Therefore, if the tool is overloaded, the
motor may stop. However, this is not the trouble
but the result of protection function. In this case,
release the switch of tool and eliminate the
causes of overloading.
CAUTION
●
When switching on the tool, make sure the
application tool is not in contact with the material
to be processed. Failure to do so may result in
injury.
●
For cutting e
ffi
ciency, switch the speed of the
application tool according to task conditions and
materials to be cut.
●
Do not apply any unnecessary pressure when
operating the tool. Doing so may damage the
application tool.
●
After use, be sure not to place the tool near chips
or sawdust before it comes to a full stop as the
tool may suck in those particles.
CUTTING, SAWING AND SCRAPING
Sawing and scraping tasks require speci
fi
c application
tools (sold separately).
WARNING
●
Be absolutely sure to keep the switch turned o
ff
and the battery removed to prevent any accident.
●
During operation, do not place your face or
hands near the application tool of the unit.
1. Switch the unit on and use the dial to set the speed of
the application tool. (Fig. 11)
2. Lightly place the application tool on the material and
move the application tool forward at a pace where the
movement isn’t slowed. (Fig. 11)

Tips on SANDING
○
How to place the sandpaper
Lightly press the tool to the surface to be processed;
making sure that the sandpaper is evenly applied to
the surface. Applying unnecessary pressure will place
stress on the motor and shorten the sandpaper’s life,
reducing polishing e
ffi
ciency.
○
How to move the tool
Using your hand, repeatedly push out and pull back in
a back and forth motion.
○
New coarse sandpaper with rougher grit
New coarse sandpaper with rougher grit may cause
the unit to jerk. During the start of the task, slightly
tilt the unit towards the front or back for a while,
maintaining the tilted position. The jerking will stop as
the sandpaper adapts to the task.
○
Until the surface being processed is polished
Use the same grade of sandpaper until the surface
being processed is evenly polished. Switching to
a di
ff
erent grade of sandpaper when the task is not
completed may result in an uneven
fi
nish.
○
Testing
Before starting a task, it is recommended that you
check the vibration frequency using excess material.
