Operation; Dust Bag - Makita BO4555 Instruction Manual

1. Set the tool upside down so that the pad is on top.
2. Position the sandpaper to fit the shape of the base.
Be sure to align the holes on the sandpaper with
the holes on the pad (the dust will be sucked into
these holes; it is therefore important to leave them
open).
3. Press the paper firmly over the pad.
To remove the sandpaper:
1. Set the tool upside down so that the sandpaper is
on top.
2. Grasping one corner of the sandpaper, peel it
from the pad.
NOTE:
If the sandpaper is in good condition, save it for
•
further use.

Dust bag

008301
The use of the dust bag makes sanding operations clean
and dust collection easy. To attach the dust bag, fit the
bag's entry port onto the dust spout on the tool. Make
sure that the hole in the bag's entry port is just over the
pimple-like protrusion on the dust spout.
For the best results, empty the dust bag when it
becomes approximately half full, tapping it lightly to
remove as much dust as possible.
