3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FOREWORD
The Drywall Sander is designed for sanding walls and ceilings that are made of drywall
or plaster. The Sander provides a superior finish, and is faster than conventional finishing
methods for both new construction and renovation work. Clean-up time is minimized by the
use of an external Vacuum Cleaner attached to the Sander.
ABRASIVE DISC SELECTION
The Drywall Sander is shipped with a 100 grit, abrasive disc installed. This abrasive is
suitable for most applications. Abrasive discs of 120 grit and 240 grit are available for
situations requiring a smoother finish.
HOW TO HOLD A DRYWALL SANDER
The Drywall Sander should be held with both hands on the main tube (A) as shown in Fig. 1.
The hands may be positioned anywhere along the main tube to provide the best combination
of reach and leverage for the particular application.
CAUTION: Keep hands on Main Tube (A) Fig. 1. Do not place hand into area around the
sanding head. The sanding head swivels in multiple directions and could pinch hand.
CONNECT DRYWALL SANDER TO VACUUM CLEANER
The following items are furnished with the Drywall Sander:
• One vacuum hose: 4m long (includes a standard 47mm vacuum cleaner connector on
one end and a special swivel connector on the Sander end), with a static dissipating feature
to dissipate static electrical charges that are sometimes experienced when recovering drywall
dust.
• One 40mm to 47mm adapter (adapts the 40mm hose connector to fit a 47 mm vacuum
cleaner).
• Six straps to connect the Sander cord to the vacuum hose (to prevent tangling).
4. INSTALL AS FOLLOWS:
