ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing abrasive paper

Model BO4553 (Fig. 2 & 3)

Raise the lever. Insert the paper end into the clamper,

aligning the paper edges even and parallel with the sides

of the base. (Prebending the paper makes attachment

easier). Once the paper is in place, return the lever to its

original position.

Repeat the same process for the other end of the base,

maintaining the proper paper tension.

CAUTION:

After inserting the paper, make sure the teeth of the

clamper hold it securely. Otherwise the paper will be

loose and subject to slippage, resulting in uneven sand-

ing operation.

Hold the tool with the paper surface facing up. Place the

punch plate over the paper so that the bent sides of the

punch plate are flush with the paper edges. Then press

the punch plate to make holes in the paper.

Models BO4561 and BO4563 (Fig. 4, 5 & 6)

NOTE:

• Use Makita hook-and-loop sandpaper with this sander.

To attach the sandpaper:

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.

When sanding in narrow, hard-to-reach areas (e.g., shut-

ters, blinds, louvres), attach the cone-shaped abrasive

papers to the end of the pad (bottom and top). To sand

the end of thin materials, fold the abrasive paper and

attach to the side of the pad as shown in Fig. 4 and 5.

Dust bag (Fig. 7)

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 so that

the hole in the entry port is just over the protrusion on the

dust spout.

For the best results, empty the dust bag when it becomes

about half full, tapping it lightly to remove as much dust

as possible.

Installing paper dust bag (optional accessory)

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. 8)

Then press the upper part of the front fixing cardboard in

arrow direction to hook it onto the claws. (Fig. 9)

Insert the notch of the paper dust bag into the guide of

the paper dust bag holder. Then install the paper dust

bag holder set on the tool. (Fig. 10 & 11)

OPERATION

Sanding operation (Fig. 12 & 13)

CAUTION:

• Never run the tool without the abrasive paper. You may

seriously damage the pad.

• Never force the tool. Excessive pressure may decrease

the sanding efficiency, damage the abrasive paper and/

or shorten tool life.

Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and wait until it

attains full speed. Then gently place the tool on the work-

piece surface. A finishing sander is generally used to

remove only a small amount of material at a time. Since

the quality of the surface is more important than the

amount of stock removed do not bear down on the tool.

Keep the base flush with the workpiece at all times.

For BO4561 and BO4563

This tool is handy for sanding louvres, etc. When sanding

louvres, insert the protruding portion of the pad between

the louvres and sand them using the upper or lower side

of the abrasive paper.

unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
