CAUTION
To extend the lifetime, the tool and the lithium-ion battery are equipped with a
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.
Additionally, refer to “CAUTION ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY”. If it still does not run,
request repairs from a HiKOKI authorized service center.
WARNING
Never apply water or grinding
fl
uid when sanding. This could result in electrical
shock.
1. How to hold the random orbit sander
While gripping the housing, lightly press the sander
against the surface to be sanded so that the sanding
paper uniformly contacts the surface, as shown in
Fig. 11
. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the
sander while sanding. Excessive-pressure may
cause overload of the motor, reduced service life of
the sanding paper, and lowered sanding or polishing
e
ffi
ciency.
2. How to move the random orbit sander
Move the sander by either moving it up and down or
by moving it in circles while gradually progressing in a
sideways direction (
Figs. 12
and
13
).
3. Switching the sander ON and OFF
The power can be turned on by setting the switch to
ON (I) and turned o
ff
by setting the lever to OFF (
○
).
NOTE
Never turn the power switch ON when the sander is
contacting the surface to be sanded. This is necessary
to preclude damage to the material. The same applies
when switching the power OFF.
CAUTION
●
Immediately after use, always ensure that
the switch is in the OFF position and pull
out the battery.
●
Since the sander may suck in dust and
debris, be careful not to place it where
there is much dust and debris when it is still
spinning right after use.
●
Looking from above, the sanding
pad rotates clockwise during the
loaded operation, but it may rotate
counterclockwise during the no-load operation.
