Dust Collection (Fig. A)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit
off and disconnect it from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before
adjusting or when making repairs. Be sure the
switch is in the "OFF" position. An accidental start-up
can cause injury.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, NEVER operate this tool with perforated paper
unless the dust collection system is in place.

WARNING: Empty dust collection system frequently,
especially when sanding resin-coated surfaces such as
polyurethane, varnish, shellac, etc. Dispose of coated
dust particles according to the finish manufacturer's
guidelines, or place in a metal can with a tight fitting
metal lid. Remove coated dust particles from the
premises daily. The accumulation of fine sanding dust
particles may self ignite and cause fire.
Attach vacuum hose to the dust port
Using the Sander (Fig. G)
To operate your sander, grasp it as shown in Figure G. Hold
the tool firmly and turn it on. Apply the sanding disc to the
workpiece and apply slight pressure only. Be sure to check
your work often. This sander is capable of removing material
rapidly, especially with coarse paper.
To produce the best finish possible, start with coarse grit
sandpaper and change gradually to finer and finer paper.
Vacuum and wipe the surface with a tack cloth between
grit steps.
When sanding painted surfaces (see Additional safety
Rules for Paint Removal), you may find that the
sandpaper clogs with paint. A heat gun will work much
better to remove paint before sanding. Follow all the safety
instructions in the heat gun instruction manual.
MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this.
