The sander is heavy enough so I don't have to apply any downward pressure, just have to guide it along the length of the wood. The dust catcher bag is very efficient and no dust cloud is released from the use the Makita 9403 sander. Because of the aggressiveness of the sander in the amount of wood surface being removed, I do have to empty the bag every so often which gives a chance for the sander and sanding belt to cool down. I tried to attach a small shop vac to the sander dust output nozzle but I don't have the right size adapter, so another trip to my home improvement center!
This sander puts up a lot of hot air from the port by the front handle which is not very noticible if you are right handed but very noticible if you are left handed and hold the front handle with your right hand. The hot exhaust is very hot and uncomfortable on the right wrist if in sustain use. Thinking of designing some form of flexible air rechanneling to mitigate this little issue as I am ambidextrous and would switch from left to right hand operation as needed.
Other then these minor issues, the Makita 9403 is a perfect, well designed tool that I would buy again and again should someone borrowed and failed to return it. I would recommend this to others! I would rate 4.5 stars if that option were available but it deserves 5 rather then 4 stars, that is how pleased with this tool! Well done, Makita!
I purchased this second unit to do the same metal and wood finishing at my home in Texas.
My new unit is working very well.
I highly recommend it. It’s pricy and heavy but works very well. With proper care it will last many years.
PS: this tool is very heavy. I personally like that as the weight of the sander is perfect for sanding without any help from me.
