GENERAL 

 

       

WARNING:

 When servicing, use only 

identical replacement parts. Use of any other 

replacement parts may create a hazard or 

cause product damage. 

 

DO NOT use solvents when cleaning plastic 

parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage 

from various types of commercial solvents and 

may be damaged by their use. Use a clean cloth 

to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease etc. 

 

       

WARNING:

 Do not at any time allow 

brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based 

products, penetrating oils, etc. to come in 

contact with plastic parts. They contain 

chemicals that can damage, weaken or 

destroy plastic. 

 

DO NOT abuse power tools. Abusive practices 

can damage the tool as well as the workpiece. 

 

       

WARNING:

 DO NOT attempt to modify 

tools or create accessories not 

recommended. Any such alteration or 

modification is misuse and could result in a 

hazardous condition leading to possible 

serious injury. It will also void the warranty. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It has been found that electric tools are 

subjected to accelerated wear and possible 

premature failure when they are used on 

fiberglass boats and automotive parts, 

wallboard, spackling compounds or plaster. The 

chips and grindings from these materials are 

highly abrasive to electric tool parts such as 

bearings, brushes, commutators, etc.  

Consequently, it is not recommended that this 

tool be used for extended work on any 

fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling 

compounds or plaster. During any use on these 

materials it is extremely important that the tool is 

cleaned frequently by blowing the dust out of the 

tool with an air jet. 

 
      

WARNING:

 Always wear safety goggles 

or safety glasses with side shields during all 

sanding operations. It is critical that you also 

wear safety goggles or safety glasses with 

side shields and a dust mask while blowing 

dust out of the sander with an air jet. Failure 

to take these safety precautions could result 

in permanent eye or lung damage. 

 

LUBRICATION 

 

All of the bearings in this sander are lubricated 

with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant 

for the life of the unit under normal conditions. 

Therefore, no further lubrication is required.
