OPERATION
Flush sanding can be performed with the sander. The front
edge of the sander allows flush sanding in corners. Always
remove the sander from the workpiece before turning the
sander off.
Extended periods of sanding may tend to overheat the mo-
tor. If this occurs, turn sander off and wait until it comes to
a complete stop, then remove it from workpiece. Remove
your hand from vent area, remove sandpaper, then with your
hand removed from vent area, turn sander on and run it free
without a load to cool motor.
EMPTYING THE DUST BAG
For more efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is no
more than half full. This will permit the air to flow through the
bag better. Always empty and clean the dust bag thoroughly
upon completion of a sanding operation and before placing
the sander in storage.
WARNING:
Collected sanding dust from sanding surface
coatings such as polyurethanes, linseed oil,
etc. can self-ignite in the sander dust 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 coatings
manufacturers.
To empty the dust bag:
Unplug the sander.
Remove the dust bag from the sander.
Shake out the dust.
Reattach the dust bag to the sander.
