MAINTENANCE

WARNING: WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL RYOBI REPLACEMENT PARTS. USE OF ANY OTHER PARTS MAY CREATE A HAZARD OR CAUSE PRODUCT DAMAGE.

GENERAL

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.

WARNING: DO NOT AT ANY TIME LET BRAKE F L U I D S , G A S O L I N E , P E T R O L E U M - B A S E D PRODUCTS, PENETRATING OILS, ETC. COME IN CONTACT WITH PLASTIC PARTS. THEY CONTAIN CHEMICALS THAT CAN DAMAGE, WEAKEN, OR DESTROY PLASTIC.

When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster, it has been found that they are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutator, etc. Consequently it is not recommended that this tool be used for extended work on any fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During any use on these materials, it is extremely important that the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.

WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES, OR SAFETY GLASSES WITH SIDE SHIELDS DURING POWER TOOL OPERATION OR WHEN BLOWING DUST. IF OPERATION IS DUSTY ALSO WEAR A DUST MASK.

EXTENSION CORDS

The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Follow the recommended cord sizes on the chart provided to determine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord.

When working with your tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use and so marked. Outdoor use extension cords are marked with the letters "WA" on the cord's jacket.

CAUTION: Keep extension cords away from the sanding area and position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools, etc., when sanding.

WARNING: CHECK EXTENSION CORDS BEFORE EACH USE. IF DAMAGED REPLACE IMMEDIATELY. NEVER USE TOOL WITH A DAMAGED CORD SINCE TOUCHING THE DAMAGED AREA COULD CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY.

LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.
