Using the Makita GV7000C is quite straightforward. First, make sure you've attached the appropriate sanding disc and tightened the sanding lock nut. Then, hold the sander firmly with the side handle. You can adjust the speed according to the material you're sanding. For softer materials, a lower speed is usually better, while harder materials may require a higher speed. When starting the sander, let the soft - start feature do its job to avoid sudden jolts. As for maintenance, keep the sander clean after each use. Remove any dust or debris from the sanding disc and the body of the tool. Check the wrenches and the side handle regularly to make sure they're in good condition. Also, store the sander in a dry place to prevent rust. Be careful when handling the sanding disc as it can be sharp. Always wear safety goggles and gloves when operating the sander.
