OPERATION
INSTALLING SANDING DISC
See Figure 11.
Before installing the sanding disc, the rubber disc must be
installed on the tool. If the grinding wheel and guard are on
the tool, they must be removed first. Follow the steps in
Installing Rubber Disc before proceeding.
Unplug the tool.
Depress and hold spindle lock button and rotate spanner
nut with provided wrench until spindle locks.
NOTE: To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock,
always allow motor to come to a complete stop before
engaging spindle lock.
Loosen and remove spanner nut from spindle.
Center and place the sanding disc over the rubber
disc.
Install spanner nut on spindle. Finger tighten.
Depress and hold the spindle lock button and rotate the
wheel clockwise until the spindle locks in position.
Securely tighten the spanner nut with the wrench provided.
Do not overtighten.
WARNING:
To prevent loss of control and possible serious personal
injury, always operate the tool with both hands, keeping
one hand on the side handle.
SANDING
See Figure 12.
Clamp or otherwise secure the work to prevent it from mov-
ing under the tool. Secure small workpieces in a vise or use
clamps to secure them to a workbench.
WARNING:
Unsecured work could be thrown towards the operator
causing injury.
Hold the tool in front and away from you, keeping it clear of
the workpiece. Start the tool by depressing the switch trigger
and letting the motor build to its maximum speed. Gradually
lower sander to the workpiece at a slight (5° to 8°) angle.
Do not attempt to hold the sanding disc flat on the workpiece.
Always keep the tool in motion moving over the work, allowing
it to operate freely without unnecessary pressure. The weight
of the unit supplies adequate pressure, so let the sanding
disc and sander do the work. Applying additional pressure
only slows the motor, rapidly wears sanding discs, damages
rubber disc, and greatly reduces sander speed.
Excessive pressure will overload the motor, causing pos-
sible damage from motor overheating, which can result in
inferior work. Any finish or resin on wood may soften from
the frictional heat.
