Operation; Cutting, Sawing And Scraping - Makita MT01 Instruction Manual

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 appli-
cation 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.
