Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated in accordance with European Standard
and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without
earth wire.
Safety hints
For your own safety, please refer to the enclosed Safety
instructions.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

1. Hold the tool firmly.
2. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
3. This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not
use water on the workpiece surface.
4. Ventilate your work area adequately when you
perform sanding operations.
5. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator for
the material and application you are working
with.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Installing or removing the abrasive paper
Important:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the paper.
When using the conventional type of abrasive paper
(standard equipment) (Fig. 1 & 2):
Turn the clamp lever counterclockwise. Insert the paper
end into the clamper, aligning the holes in the paper with
those in the pad. Then return the clamp lever to the origi-
nal position to secure the paper. Repeat the same pro-
cess for the other end of the tool, maintaining the proper
paper tension.

Remove all dirt or foreign matter from the pad. Attach the
paper to the pad, aligning the holes in the paper with
those in the pad.
CAUTION:
Always use velcro type of abrasive papers. Never use
pressure-sensitive abrasive papers.
Dust bag (Fig. 4)
To install the dust bag, align the
entry port with the y mark on the dust spout of the tool
and fit the entry port onto the dust spout. Then turn the
dust bag clockwise to secure it in place. For the best
results, empty the dust bag when it becomes about half
full. To remove the dust bag, follow the installation proce-
dures in reverse.
Paper dust bag
To install the paper dust bag, place the paper dust bag on
the paper dust bag holder with its front side upward.
Insert the front fixing cardboard of the paper dust bag
into the groove of the paper dust bag holder. (Fig. 5)
Then press the upper part of the front fixing cardboard in
arrow direction to hook it onto the claws. (Fig. 6)
Insert the notch of the paper dust bag into the guide of
ENB042-2
the paper dust bag holder. Then install the paper dust
bag holder set on the tool. (Fig. 7 & 8)
Note:
If you connect a Makita dust collector to your sander,
more efficient and cleaner operations can be performed.

CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released.
To switch on, press the trigger. To switch off, release the
trigger.
Continuous running (Fig. 9)
Press the trigger and at the same time push the lock but-
ton. To stop this lock position, press the trigger and
release it.

The front grip position can be changed in 90° increments.
Pull the front grip and rotate it to the desired position.
