6. Check that the sanding belt is securely fixed to the sander and that it is correctly aligned
while the tool is operating. If necessary, switch the sander OFF and re-fix to the sander
WARNING: DO NOT use the sander inverted unless it is securely clamped to the work surface.
Note: When the belt sander is being clamped, use the Bench-Mounting Mat (17) beneath
the belt sander to protect the work surface from damage and to prevent the belt sander
from moving.

Maintenance
WARNING: Always disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any inspection,
maintenance or cleaning.
Emptying the dust collection bag (if fitted)
WARNING: Always switch the belt sander OFF and disconnect from the power supply before
detaching the Dust Collection Bag (20) or dust extraction system.
1. To remove the Dust Collection Bag, rotate outwards to disengage the bayonet, then pull
off (Image A)
2. Unzip the Dust Collection Bag, empty, and refit (see 'Connecting the Dust Collection Bag')
Note: If the sanding dust contains harmful substances, such as particles from old paint,
varnish, surface coatings etc, always dispose of in accordance with laws and regulations.
Note: For optimum dust removal, empty the Dust Collection Bag when it is no more than
half full.
Note: Always clean the tool THOROUGHLY when switching from sanding wood to sanding metal
and vice versa.
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time
• Inspect the mains cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear. Repairs should
be carried out by an authorised Triton service centre. This advice also applies to extension
cords used with this tool; always check for wear or damage and see the manufacturer of
the product for repairs, if possible
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly
and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft
brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the
ventilation holes
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do not use alcohol,
petrol or strong cleaning agents
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts
Lubrication
• Slightly lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals with a suitable spray lubricant
Brushes
• Over time the carbon brushes inside the motor may become worn
• Excessively worn brushes may cause loss of power, intermittent failure, or visible sparking
• If you suspect that the brushes may be worn, both brushes will need
replacing simultaneously
Replacing the brushes:
WARNING: Ensure that the belt sander is switched OFF and the mains power cord is
unplugged from the power source before attempting to replace the brushes.
1. Locate the Vented Motor Cover (12) on the belt sander and the two screw-in
Brush Covers (13)
2. Remove the Brush Covers with a flat-tipped screwdriver, then remove the two brushes
3. Note the notches on the brush ends, which align with the fitment in the Brush Cover holes,
and place the new brush inside then screw the Brush Cover back in
Note: Fitting the new brushes can be done one at a time, but it is recommended that both
brushes be replaced during the same session.
4. Once both brushes have been replaced, plug the belt sander in to the power socket and
switch ON. Run the belt sander to test that the replacement has worked
5. If there is no power, retry from step 1. If there is still no power after a second attempt to fit
the brushes, see your Triton service technician

the belt until it is on both pulleys and located in the grooves of each pulley
