[. . . ] (Bending the paper beforehand makes attachment easier). Once the paper is in place, return the lever to its original position. 3) Repeat the same process for the other end of the base, maintaining the proper paper tension. After inserting the paper, make sure the clamping part hold it securely. Otherwise the paper will be loose and subject to slippage, resulting in uneven sanding operation. 4) When using the dust bag, make holes in the abrasive paper using the punch plate as follows: 1. Place the punch plate over the abrasive paper so that the bent sides of the punch plate are flush with the paper edges. Be sure to remove the punch plate before operating the tool. Model BO4555 only NOTE: Use Makita hook-and-loop sandpaper with this sander. 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). Grasping one corner of the sandpaper, peel it from the pad. nOTE: · If the sandpaper is in good condition, save it for further use. Never run the tool without the abrasive paper. Excessive pressure may decrease the sanding efficiency, damage the abrasive paper and/or shorten tool life. Turn the tool on and wait until it attains full speed. then gently place the tool on the workpiece 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. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).
