3. Turn on the compressed air supply
and check for air leaks. Rectify any
found before proceeding.
• PTFE tape may be useful for
sealing threaded connections.
4. If required, connect an in-line mini
oiler to the sander. A mini oiler
helps to prolong the life of the tool.
5. If a mini-oiler is not being used, run
a few drops of oil through the
sander before use. It can be entered through the airline inlet or via the
hose at the nearest connection to the air supply.
6. A gauze filter is fitted inside the air inlet. Ensure this filter is always in place
and is kept clean. An airline is connected to the adapter, preferably via a
quick release coupling (not supplied).
7. Ensure the trigger is NOT depressed when connecting the air line.
• Your sander is now ready for use
• You can fit a whip hose with a quick fit coupling if required
(available from your Clarke dealer.)
OPERATION
IMPORTANT: Only use abrasive sanding pads designed for use with this type
of sanding pad.
1. To start, squeeze the trigger
against the body of the sander.
2. Rest the sander on the workpiece
before starting it. Let the sander do
the work.
• The actual weight of the sander
is normally sufficient for efficient
sanding. Do not put additional
pressure on the sander, which
would only slow down the
speed of the pad, reducing efficiency and placing an additional
burden on the motor.
3. Pass the sander back and forth in wide, overlapping areas, taking care to
keep the sander moving around at all times. Avoid dwelling in one place
for more than a moment.
