OPERATION

Grasp the sander as shown and turn it ON. Move it in long, sweeping strokes along the surface, letting it do the work. Pushing down on the tool while sanding actually slows the removal rate and produces an inferior quality finish.

Check your work often. This sander is capa- ble of removing material rapidly.

DUST COLLECTION

WARNING: Collected sanding dust from sanding surface coatings (polyurethane, linseed oil, etc.) can self- ignite in sander dust bag or elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce risk, empty bag fre- quently and strictly follow sander manual and coating manufacturer's instructions.

Your sander comes equipped with a cloth canister to collect the dust generated while sanding. To attached the canister to the sander, fit it firmly onto the dust extraction port at the back of the sander.

To empty the canister, remove it from the dust port and dump the sanding debris into an appropriate trash receptacle.

You may, if you prefer, attach a vacuum cleaner to the tool to collect the dust as you sand. Simply remove the dust bag and install the vacuum hose over or into the dust extrac- tion port. Shop vacuums come with two diam- eters of hoses and the dust extraction port is designed to accept both of them.

Ensure that the vacuum cleaner can be placed such that it will not tip over or interfere with the motion of the sander. If this cannot be done, do not use the vacuum cleaner. Turn on the vacuum cleaner before beginning to sand and turn it off after turning off the sander. Empty vacuum cleaner as required.

MAINTENANCE

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
