Unpacking Your Tool

• Carefully unpack and inspect your new tool. Familiarise yourself with all its features
and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing
or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool

Before Use

WARNING: Ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply before attaching or
changing any accessories, or making any adjustments.
Secting the right grade of sanding sleeve
• Sanding sleeves are available in a variety of different grades: coarse (60 grit), medium
(120 grit) and fine (240 grit)
• Use a coarse grit to sand down rough finishes, medium grit to smooth the work,
and fine grit to finish off
• Always use good quality sanding sleeves to maximise the quality of the finished task
• It is advisable to do a trial run on a scrap piece of material to determine the optimum
grades of sandpaper for a particular job. If there are still marks on your work after
sanding, try either going back to a coarser grade and sanding the marks out before
recommencing with the original choice of grit, or try using a new piece of sandpaper to
eliminate the unwanted marks before going on to a finer grit and finishing the job
Fitting a sanding sleeve
WARNING: Always ensure the tool is switched OFF and the plug is removed from the
mains power supply before fitting or removing sanding sleeves.
Note: Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding sleeves. Ensure foreign
objects, such as nails and screws, are removed from the workpiece before starting to sand.
WARNING: Do not use a sanding sleeve on wood that has previously been used on metal.
This may cause scouring on the wooden surface.
1. Remove the Locking Bolt (10) and Drum Washer (11) (D)
2. Remove the Sanding Sleeve Drum (15)
3. Slide a Sanding Sleeve (9) onto the Sanding Sleeve Drum (A)
4. Replace the Sanding Sleeve Drum back onto the spindle (B)
5. Replace the Drum Washer (C) and retighten the Locking Bolt (D)
Note: See Fig I for assembly diagram.
Dust extraction
GB
WARNING: Always connect the sander to a suitable vacuum cleaner or workshop dust
extraction system if the sanding dust contains harmful substances, such as particles from
old paint, varnish, surface coatings, etc. Always dispose of harmful dust according to laws
and regulations.
WARNING: Take special care to guard against harmful and toxic dusts when sanding
lead-based painted surfaces, woods and metals, particularly if you are unsure about the exact
substance involved. All persons entering the work area must wear a mask specially designed
for protection against the toxic dust and fumes involved. Children and pregnant women MUST
NOT enter the work area. DO NOT eat, drink or smoke in the work area.
• This sander is designed to be connected to a household vacuum cleaner hose or workshop
dust extraction system. This is the preferred and most effective method of dust extraction
• Connect a suitable vacuum hose to the supplied Dust Extraction Port Adaptor (7)

• To remove the Dust Extraction Port Adaptor: turn anti-clockwise so the pins align with the
notches of the dust extraction port then remove
• To replace the Dust Extraction Port Adaptor: insert it with the pins aligned with the dust
extraction port then turn the adaptor clockwise to lock it into place (E)
• The portable spindle sander can be used without the Dust Extraction Port Adaptor and
a compatible dust extraction system; however, it is always recommended to use a
compatible dust extraction system
WARNING: When sanding metal, always connect the sander to a suitable workshop dust
extraction system. Always clean the tool THOROUGHLY when switching from sanding wood to
sanding metal, and vice versa.
Note: A dust bag is not supplied with this tool because the tool requires a dust extraction
system for effective dust extraction. Inserting a third-party dust bag into the Dust Extraction
Port Adaptor is not an effective method of extracting dust during use and is not recommended.
Operation
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing protection, and
suitable gloves when working with this tool.
WARNING: Do not touch the moving Sanding Sleeve (9).
Note: Always use clamps to secure your workpiece to a workbench wherever possible.
WARNING: NEVER allow the sandpaper to completely wear down before replacing it. Failure to
observe these precautionary measures can lead to damage to the Sanding Sleeve Drum (15),
resulting in Sanding Sleeves failing to attach properly.
Switching ON & OFF
WARNING: Never switch the sander ON when the Sanding Sleeve (9) is in contact with the
workpiece or any other surface. This might cause the operator to lose control over the
machine and lead to serious injury.
1. Connect the power cord to the mains power supply
2. To switch the sander ON, push the ON/OFF Switch (2) to the 'I' position
3. To switch the sander OFF, push the ON/OFF Switch (2) to the 'O' position
WARNING: Always wait until the machine has stopped vibrating completely before setting
down. Always disconnect from the power supply after use
Adjusting the speed
WARNING: Never fit any accessories to the Sanding Sleeve Drum (15) that are not rated to
the maximum no load speed of this device (see 'Specification').
• This sander features variable speed control that enables it to be used with a variety of
accessories, and to work on a range of different materials, workpieces and objects
Note: The Speed Adjustment Dial (1) can be adjusted when the sander is ON or OFF. When
the Speed Adjustment Dial is set to '1' the no load speed of the sander with be 1800min
when the Speed Adjustment Dial is set to '6', the maximum no load speed of 3200min
be achieved.
• To adjust the speed, rotate the Speed Adjustment Dial to the desired setting
• The speed settings range from 1–6, with '1' being the lowest speed setting and '6' being
the highest speed setting
• If in doubt about choosing the correct speed setting suitable for the task, begin with a low
speed, examine the results, then adjust to a higher setting if necessary
Edge sanding
• The portable spindle sander is effective at sanding the edges of a variety of flat
workpieces (F)
• Always ensure the workpiece is secure and use clamps where necessary
• The Edge Guide (16) can be attached to the sander, if required (J). Apply the Edge Guide to
the sander and fix in the desired position with the Edge Guide Locking Screws (17) (Fig II)
1. Place the sander with the Sanding Base (8) flat on the workpiece and the Sanding
Sleeve (9) facing down, ensuring that there is more than enough room for the stroke length
of the oscillating spindle movement up and down
2. Switch ON the dust extraction system first (if connected) then switch the spindle sander ON
3. Make more shorter passes across the edge of the workpiece rather than longer, slower
passes
4. Allow the sander to do the work and do not force the sander against the workpiece by
applying excessive pressure. Doing so could damage the workpiece and the tool or cause
an injury to the user
Note: When using the Edge Guide, always start sanding from the corner or edge of a
workpiece. Start with the front feed guide against the workpiece and gradually feed the tool
onto the surface.
