MAINTENANCE

General

Regular periodic maintenance on your Model G9910 Hook & Loop Sander/Polisher will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your sander each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary:

1.Loose fasteners.

2.Worn switch.

3.Worn or damaged cords and plugs.

4.Worn or damaged rubber backing pad or abrasive sheet.

5.Any other condition that could hamper the safe operation of this machine.

Keeping Tool Clean

Your G9910 Rotary Sander will give you years of trouble free service if you keep it clean and free of built-up dust or grime. Ensure that no air passages get blocked. If they do, blow them out with compressed air. WARNING: Wear safety glasses when cleaning tool with compressed air.

Plastic parts can easily be cleaned with a damp cloth, but never use water to clean any electrical parts. Solvents should also be avoided on plastic because of the pos- siblity of damage.

If possible use a scraper to remove glue or sap from your work; these elements may hinder the effectiveness of the abrasive sheets and cause unnecessary build-up of grime on the sander.

Repair and Service

All quality tools will eventually wear from normal use. Since sander is encased in a double insulated plastic cover, leave repair and service issues to a qualified service technician. This includes brush replace- ment, lubrication or any other internal operation.

You can replace the rubber backing pad that holds the abrasive sheets if it becomes worn. Simply remove the four screws that hold backing plate to the body of the sander and replace with a new rub- ber backing piece, installing the reverse of removal. Always make sure you re-tighten the rubber backing screws sufficiently enough, so you don’t have problems when you resume operations.

Disassembly and improper reassem- bly of this device can result in elec- trical shock danger. Always have this device serviced by a qualified electri- cal repair technician. Serious injury will result.
