Maintenance And Inspection; Important - HIKOKI FSV 10SA Mode D'emploi

English
CAUTION
Never turn the power switch ON when the sander is
contacting the surface to be sanded. This is necessary
to preclude damage to the material. The same applies
when switching the power OFF.
2. How to hold the orbital sander
While gripping the housing, lightly press the sander
against the surface to be sanded so that the sanding
paper uniformly contacts the surface, as shown in
Fig. 4. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the sander
while sanding. Excessive-pressure may cause overload
of the motor, reduced service life of the sanding paper,
and lowered sanding or polishing efficiency.
3. How to move the orbital sander
For optimum operating efficiency, alternately move the
sander forward and backward at a constant speed and
balance.
4. After installing new sanding paper
Movement of the sander may tend to become unsteady
after new sanding paper has been installed, because of
the new, coarse grain of the paper. This can be avoided
by slightly tilting the sander forward or backward during
sanding or polishing. Sander movement will become
steady as the sanding paper surface becomes properly
abraded.
5. Using commercial sanding paper having no holes
Obtain 230 × 280 mm sanding paper and cut into 3
equal longitudinal portions (Fig. 5).
Before using, make holes in the sanding paper to boost
its dust absorbing efficiency.
To make the holes (perforations), align the sanding
paper with the guide in the accessory punch plate and
apply pressure (Fig. 6).
MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
1. Attaching a sponge pad (magic type) or a stick-on
pad
Loosen the M4 × 10 screws (4) and remove the attached
pad. Next, attach a sponge pad (magic type) or a stick-
on pad.
CAUTION
Replace the pad only. Use the other parts without
removing them.
2. Attaching magic type sanding paper or stick-on
type sanding paper
Match the sanding paper's hole with the pad's hole and
strongly push the sanding paper with the palm of your
hand to fasten it securely in place.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Empting and cleaning the Dust Bag
If the dust bag contains too much saw dust, dust
collection will be affected. Empty the dust bag when it
gets full.
Remove the dust bag, open the fastener, and dispose of
the contents.
2. Inspecting the sanding paper
Since use of worn-out sanding paper will degrade
efficiency and cause possible damage to the pad,
replace the sanding paper as soon a excessive
abrasion is noted.
3. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that
they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws
be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so
could result in serious hazard.

4. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the power
tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
5. Replacing supply cord
If the supply cord of Tool is damaged, the Tool must be
returned to HiKOKI Authorized Service Center for the
cord to be replaced.
6. Servicing
Consult an authorized Service Agent in the event of
power tool failure.
CAUTION
In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the
safety regulations and standards prescribed in each
country must be observed.
