Motor
Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your
tool will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do not operate AC tools on DC. A
rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or DC
power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power
and can result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does
not operate, check the power supply.
Sanding
lead based Paint
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of controlling
the contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant
women.
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains lead without a chemical
analysis, we recommend the following precautions when sanding any paint:
Personal Safety
• No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is
being done until all clean up is completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work area. The filter
should be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
NoTe:
Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead paint dust and fumes should
be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware
dealer for the proper (NIOSH approved) mask.
• NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to prevent
ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE
eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the
work area where dust would settle on them.
environmental Safety
• Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of dust generated.
• Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils
thickness.
• Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work
area.
cleaning and disposal
• All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the
duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently.
• Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust chips or
other removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of
through regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean up, children and pregnant women
should be kept away from the immediate work area.
• All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed thoroughly
before being used again.
Assembly
Warning:
Before assembly, make sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged.
Random orbit sanding base
With this sanding base, you can use the tool as a random orbit sander.
fitting and removing the sanding base (fig. B)
- Place the sanding base (3) onto the spindle (10).
- Place the washer (7) onto the spindle.
- Insert the Allen screw (8) into the screw hole in the spindle.
- Tighten the Allen screw using the Allen key (9) supplied.
- To remove the sanding base, remove the Allen screw (8) and washer (7).
fitting sanding sheets (fig. c)
- Hold the tool with the sanding base (3) facing upwards.
- Place the sanding sheet (11) onto the sanding base (3). The holes in the sheet do not need
to line up with the holes in the base.
large detail sanding base
With this sanding base, you can use the tool as a detail sander or an orbital sander.
operation
Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Warning:
Do not cover the ventilation slots when using the tool. Hold the tool as shown in
fig. L & M. Make sure that the sanding base is flat on the workpiece.
Switching on and off (fig. d)
- To switch the tool on, set the on/off switch (1) to position I.
- To switch the tool off, set the on/off switch to position O.
Automatic brake system (ABS)
This tool has an automatic brake system. When the tool is not on the work surface, this
feature keeps the speed of the disc below the speed of the motor. When the tool is switched
off, the disc will stop very quickly.
dust collection
WARNING:
Collected sanding dust from sanding surface coatings (polyurethane, linseed
oil, etc.) can self-ignite in sander dust canister or elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce risk,
empty canister frequently and strictly follow sander manual and coating manufacturer’s
instructions.
cAuTIoN:
When working on metal surfaces, do not use the dust canister or a vacuum
cleaner because sparks are generated. Wear safety glasses and a dustmask. Due to the dan-
ger of fire, do not use your sander to sand magnesium surfaces. Do not use for wet sanding.
emptying the dust canister (fig. e )
The dust canister should be emptied every 10 minutes of use.
- Remove the cover (18) by twisting it counterclockwise and pulling it straight off.
- Hold the sander with the filter (19) facing down and shake the canister to empty the
contents. Shake the cover to empty the contents.
- Refit the cover (18) onto the dust canister, twisting it clockwise until it locks into place.
cleaning the dust canister filter (fig. f)
The dust canister filter prevents dust and dirt from entering the motor housing. The filter is
re-usable and should be cleaned regularly.
- Empty the dust canister (2) as described above.
- Pull the filter (19) off the dust canister.
- Shake off excess dust by tapping the filter into a wastebasket.
Warning:
Do not brush or use compressed air to clean the filter. Do not wash the inside of
the filter.
- Replace the filter.
- Refit the cover.
- Refit the dust canister onto the tool.
Hints for optimum use
- For user comfort, the tool can be operated with two hands or one (
figs. G & H
). Do not
place your hands over the ventilation slots.
- Do not exert too much pressure on the tool.
- Regularly check the condition of the sanding sheet. Replace when necessary.
- Always sand with the grain of the wood.
- When sanding new layers of paint before applying another layer, use extra fine grit.
- On very uneven surfaces, or when removing layers of paint, start with a coarse grit. On
other surfaces, start with a medium grit. In both cases, gradually change to a fine grit for a
smooth finish.
Maintenance
Your tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer
or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
- Clear the cooling vents and slots with a clean, dry paint brush.
- Clean the housing with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use solvents.
