MACHINE SET-UP
1. Familiarize yourself with the machine. Read all danger,
warning, and caution statements and the Owner's Manual
before operating this machine. If you or your operator
cannot read English, have this manual explained fully
before attempting to operate this machine.
2. Install dust bag support to the exhaust bracket (figure 1).
Place opening of dust bag over dust bag support and
exhaust bracket; cinch and tie securely to exhaust bracket.
3. Remove screw and abrasive retainer. Center abrasive on
pad and secure with abrasive retainer and screw. (Figure
2)
4. Return machine to upright position and tilt machine back on
casters until it comes to rest on the exhaust bracket.
Machine will be in a reclined position. Do not allow ma-
chine to rest on pad especially after use, or compression
set may take place within elastomer on pad. This will
create a flat spot and bounce during use. (Figure 3)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Move machine to the location of your work. Set any
exposed nails with hammer and punch to avoid encounter
with abrasive.
WARNING:
Bodily injury could occur if power is applied to the
machine with the power switch already in the "ON"
position. Always check to assure that the power
switch is in the "OFF" position before applying
power to the power cable.
2. Make sure the control switch is in the "Off" position then
connect the supply cable to an appropriately grounded
fused circuit. For machines that are equipped with a motor
pigtail, connect the supply cable to the motor pigtail.
(Figure 4)
3. With the machine in the reclined position firmly grasp both
handles and flip the control switch to the "ON" position.
(Figure 3.)
4.
Gradually lower pad to surface intended for sanding.
Make sure the machine is in motion while the pad is
engaged with the surface to be sanded. You may use
broad circular motion as you sand along the length of
the surface or your may use a combination of forward
and sideward motions. In time you will develop your
own technique to optimize coverage and dust recovery. It
is advisable to not add effort to the pad as this may lead
to "nosing in" or "tipping" which produces grooves or
lines on the surface.
5.
When replacing abrasive, emptying the contents of the
dust bag, or sanding operation is completed, return
machine to reclined position, flip control switch to "Off"
then disconnect the motor pigtail from the supply cable.
6.
Empty dust bag whenever it becomes 1/3 full.
