adjust the sanding belt tracking several times until the belt becomes
conditioned.
WARNING: Before connecting the sander to a power
supply, always make sure it is not in the "lockedon"
position. Failure to do so could result in accidental starting
of the sander resulting in possible serious injury.
Follow these steps to adjust sanding belt tracking.
▶Insert the battery pack.
▶Position the sander upside down.
NOTE: This position is for adjustments only. The sanding belt should
not contact a workpiece or any foreign object when you are making
belt tracking adjustments.
▶Depress the switch trigger and release immediately.
▶Choose one of these options:
• Sanding belt runs inward: Turn the tracking knob slowly
counterclockwise.
• Sanding belt runs outward: Turn the tracking knob slowly
clockwise.
NOTE: Turn the tracking knob until you are sure the sanding belt is
secure, i.e., it will not come off the sander or contact internal parts.
NOTICE: If the sanding belt wears excessively on the inner
edge it is probably adjusted too far inward and is rubbing
against internal parts. If this is the case, readjust the
tracking knob.
▶Start the sander and fine adjust the tracking knob until the belt
stabilizes.
WARNING: Keep hands and fingers away from a moving
sanding belt. Any part of the body coming in contact with a
moving sanding belt could result in serious injury. Do not
wear loose clothing or jewelry when operating the sander.
They could get caught in moving parts and foreign objects
could get thrown away from the sander causing injury.
DUST COLLECTION BAG
WARNING: Do not use
the dust collection
bag when sanding
metal. Using the dust
collection bag when
sanding metal creates
a fire hazard, which
could damage the tool
and lead to serious
personal injury.
To attach the dust collection bag:
▶Remove the battery pack.
Instruction manual
▶Slide the dust bag retainer over the blower exhaust hole on the
sander.
For more efficient operation, empty the dust collection bag when it is
no more than half full. This action permits the air to flow through the
bag better. Always empty and clean the dust collection bag thoroughly
upon completion of a sanding operation and before placing the sander
in storage.
To empty the dust collection bag:
▶Remove the battery pack.
▶Remove the dust collection bag from the sander.
▶Unzip the dust bag
▶Shake out the dust.
▶Zip up the dust bag.
▶Replace the dust collection bag.
NOTE: Periodically, you should turn the dust bag inside out and
thoroughly clean it.
OPERATING THE SANDER
Secure the work to prevent it
from moving under the sander.
▶Turn the sander on and let
the motor reach its maximum
speed before placing the sander on the work surface.
▶Lower the sander to the work surface with a slight forward motion.
▶Move the sander slowly over the work surface, using the rear handle
to control the sander and the front handle to guide the sander.
NOTE: Allowing the sander to remain in one place will result in an
uneven surface.
WARNING: Keep a firm grip on the sander with both hands at all times.
Failure to do so could result in loss of control leading to possible
serious injury.
The sander is designed to provide the proper weight on the sanding belt.
Excessive pressure will result in the following:
▶Uneven work
▶Clogged sanding belts
WARNING: Collected sanding dust from sanding surface
coatings such as polyurethanes, linseed oil, etc, can
self-ignite in the sander dust collection bag or elsewhere
and cause fire. To reduce the risk of fire, always empty
the dust bag frequently (10-15 minutes) while sanding and
never store or leave a sander without totally emptying its
dust bag. Also follow the recommendations of the coating's
manufacturers.
WARNING: Unsecured
work could be thrown
towards the operator
causing injury.
