vibrAtion PrecAutions
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a
doctor and then have regular medical check ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused
by or worsened from tool use.
Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to the
hands, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes or Raynaud's Disease should not use this
tool. If you feel any medical symptoms related to vibrations (such as tingling, numbness, and white or
blue fingers), seek medical attention as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use.
Nicotine reduces the blood flow to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
3. wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
4. use tools with the lowest amount of vibration when there is a choice between different processes.
5. D not use for extended periods.
Take frequent breaks when using this tool.
6. let the tool do the work.
Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it).
7. To reduce vibrations, maintain tool as explained in this manual.
If abnormal vibrations occur, stop
using this tool immediately.
COmPONENTS ANd CONTROlS
1. The air valve lever (28) is used to turn the air reciprocating sander On and OFF by depressing
(On) or releasing (OFF) (see figure 1).
2. The air regulator assembly (30) regulates amount of air input to the sander. Turn the air regulator
Knob (36) to adjust the oscillation speed. The closer the air regulator Knob (36) reads “max”,
the faster the sandpaper will oscillate (see figure 2).

Air suPPly
warning: To prevent explosion, use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air to power this
tool. Do not use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any other bottled gas as a
power source this tool.
1. Incorporate an in-line oiler, shut-off valve, regulator with pressure gauge and a filter for best
service, as shown in the diagram above.
An in-line shut-off valve is an important safety device
because it controls the air supply
even if the air hose is ruptured.
note: If an automatic oiler system is
not being used, add a few drops
of pneumatic tool oil to the airline
connection before operation. add
a few more drops after each hour
of continual use.
2. attach an air hose to the
compressor's air outlet.
Connect the air hose to the air inlet of
the tool. Other components, such as
a connector and quick coupler, will
make operation more efficient, but
are not required.
