MAINTENANCE
Please note that factors other than the tools condition may effect its operation
and efficiency, such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the
airline, moisture or restrictions in the air-line, or the use of connectors of
improper size or poor condition which will reduce air supply.
DAILY OR EVERY USE
1. Before use, drain water from the air-line and compressor.
2. Lubricate the sander daily or before each use for optimum performance.
Use a high quality airline oil either via a lubricator in the air supply system or
by placing a few drops into the air inlet immediately before use. This should
be carried out regardless of whether or not an in-line lubricator is used.
3. Keep the sander clean and free from debris.
CLEANING & OVERHAULING
1. The right angle drive is fitted with a
grease nipple to provide a facility
for lubrication of the drive gears.
After extensive use, apply a shot
of general purpose grease using a
suitable grease gun.
2. Grit or gum deposits in the
mechanism may eventually
reduce efficiency. This condition
can be corrected by cleaning the
air inlet filter and flushing out the
tool with gum solvent oil or an
equal mixture of SAE No10 oil and
paraffin. Allow the mixture to soak
into the moving parts before
draining off the excess.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE SANDER IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE
AIR SUPPLY BEFORE STARTING ANY CLEANING, OR MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES.
