Using these Makita abrasive belts is easy. First, make sure your Makita 3/8 - inch by 21 - inch belt sander is turned off. Then, install the belt onto the sander according to the sander's instructions. When sanding, hold the sander firmly and move it smoothly over the material you're working on. You can use these belts on wood, plastic, resin, or metal. Just keep in mind that different materials might require different sanding pressures and speeds. As for maintenance, after each use, clean the belts to remove any debris. Store them in a dry place to prevent rust or damage. If the belts start to wear out or lose their effectiveness, it's time to replace them with a new set from the pack.
