Operating Instructions

Failure to disconnect the supply cable from
DANGER:
machine whenever servicing, replacing
abrasive, or emptying the dust bag could
result in electrocution or severe injury.
Never leave machine unattended while the
supply cable is connected.
Never leave dust bag unattended with
DANGER:
sanding dust in it. Sanding dust can
spontaneously ignite and cause a fire or
explosion. Empty dust bag into a metal
container, clear of any combustibles. Do
not empty content into a fire. Do not
overfill dust bag.
To operate the machine, follow this procedure:
1. Set any exposed nails with a hammer and punch to
avoid encounter with sanding pad.
2. Connect the machine to an appropriately grounded and
fused circuit (power supply).
3. Tilt the machine back so that the sanding pad does not
contact the floor. See figure 5.1. Select cutting speed.
Use high speed for fast stock removal. Use low speed
for finish cuts and custom work. See
figure 6.
4. Grasp both handles and press the control switch to the
start position. Once started, allow the switch to return
to the run (ON) position. See figure 5.2.
5. Gradually lower sanding pad to the floor. Make sure
the machine is in motion while the sanding pad is
engaged with the floor. Broad circular motions can be
used as you sand along the length of the floor or you
may use a combination of forward and sideway
motions. In time you will develop your own technique
to optimize coverage and dust control. It is advisable
to not add effort to the pad as this may lead to
"nosing" or "tipping" which produces grooves or lines
on the floor.
6. When replacing abrasive; emptying the contents of the
dust bag; or the sanding operation is completed, return
the machine to the reclined position and flip the control
switch to the off (O) position. Disconnect the machine
from the power supply.
7. Empty dust bag whenever it becomes 1/3 full.
