PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE
WHEN SANDING PAINT
1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT
RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of
controlling the contaminated dust. The
greatest danger of lead poisoning is to
children and pregnant women.
2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not
a paint contains lead without a chemical
analysis, we recommend the following
precautions when sanding any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. No children or pregnant women should enter
the work area where the paint sanding is
being done until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be
worn by all persons entering the work
area. The filter should be replaced
daily or whenever the wearer has
difficulty breathing.
NOTE
: Only those dust masks
suitable for working with lead paint
dust and fumes should be used.
Ordinary painting masks do not offer
this protection. See your local hardware
dealer for the proper N.I.O.S.H.
approved mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING
should be done in the work area to
prevent ingesting contaminated paint
particles. Workers should wash and
clean up BEFORE eating, drinking
or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or
smoking should not be left in the work
area where dust would settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
1. Paint should be removed in such a
manner as to minimize the amount of
dust generated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring
should be sealed with plastic sheeting
of 4 mils thickness.
3. Sanding should be done in a manner
to reduce tracking of paint dust outside
the work area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

1. All surfaces in the work area should be
vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for
the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum
filter bags should be changed frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered
up and disposed of along with any
dust chips or other removal debris.
They should be placed in sealed refuse
receptacles and disposed of through
regular trash pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant
women should be kept away from the
immediate work area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils
used by children should be washed
thoroughly before being used again.
MOUNTING AND USING WIRE
BRUSHES AND WIRE WHEELS
Wire cup brushes or wire wheels screw
directly on the grinder spindle without the
use of flanges. Use only wire brushes or
wheels provided with a 5/8 inch-11 threaded
hub. A Type 27 guard is required when
using wire brushes and wheels. Wear work
gloves when handling wire brushes and
wheels. They can become sharp.
Wheel or brush must not touch guard when
mounted or while in use. Undetectable
damage could occur to the accessory,
causing wires to fragment from accessory
wheel or cup.
MOUNTING WIRE CUP BRUSHES
AND WIRE WHEELS
WARNING:
operation, turn off and unplug tool
before performing the following
operations. Failure to do this could result in
serious personal injury.
1. Thread the wheel on the spindle by hand.
2. Depress spindle lock button and use a
wrench on the hub of the wire wheel or
brush to tighten the wheel.
3. To remove the wheel, reverse the
above procedure.
Failure to properly seat the wheel hub
before turning the tool on may result in
damage to tool or wheel.
USING WIRE CUP BRUSHES AND
WIRE WHEELS
Wire wheels and brushes can be used for
removing rust, scale and paint, and for
smoothing irregular surfaces.
NOTE
: The same precautions should be
taken when wire brushng paint as when
sanding paint.
1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before
touching the tool to the work surface.
2. Apply minimum pressure to work surface,
allowing the tool to operate at high
speed. Material removal rate is greatest
when the tool operates at high speed.
3. Figure N - Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle
between the tool and work surface for
wire cup brushes.
4. Maintain contact between the edge of
the wheel and the work surface with
wire wheels.
5. Continuously move the tool in a forward
and back motion to avoid creating
gouges in the work surface. Allowing
