Assembly
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the bat-
tery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
▶ Installing Side Handle
The side handle is used to control and bal-
ance the tool.
Securely thread handle into either side of
gear housing, depending on personal pref-
erence, comfort, and operation being per-
formed (Fig. 5).
The handle should always be installed
onto the guard protected side of the tool,
see figure 7. Use the side handle for safe
control and ease of operation.
▶ Hand Shield
The hand shield is to be used with back-
ing pads, sanding discs, and wire brushes
to keep fingers and hand away from work
surface, sharp edges, burrs and debris.
When using the hand shield, insert side
handle through hole in shield and then
thread into housing (Fig. 5). Ensure that
hand shield is positioned between hand
and backing pad, sanding disc or wire
brush.
