GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. Save ll warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your electric (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. The use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hats, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to a power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. The use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate at which it was designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
5.  Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Service

1.  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
2. If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or its agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.

Additional Safety and Working Instructions

• Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood types, minerals, and metals can be harmful to one’s health and cause allergic reactions, leading to respiratory infections and/or cancer. Materials containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists. Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the materials to be worked on.
•  Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can easily ignite.
• Additional Warnings for Sanders
• Harmful/toxic dust will arise from sanding e.g. lead paint need surfaces, woods, and metals. Contact with or inhalation of these dust can endanger the health of the operator and bystanders. Always use eyeglasses and a dust mask.
• Hearing protection should be worn when using the sander.
• Always wear safety glasses or eye shields when using the sander. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
• Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
•  Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating.
•  When an extension cable is required you must ensure it has the correct ampere rating for your power tool and is in a safe electrical condition.
•  Ensure your main supply voltage is same as indicated on the rating plate.
•  Your tool is double insulated for additional protection against a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
• Always check walls, floors, and ceilings to avoid hidden power cables and pipes.
• After a long working period, external metal parts and accessories could be hot.
• If possible, ensure the workpiece is firmly clamped to prevent movement.
• Your sander is a handheld tool, do not clamp your sander.
• Before sanding, check that the area is free of nails, screws, etc.
•  Never stop the sander by applying force to the base plate.
•  Only use paper in good condition. Do not use torn or worn paper.
•  Do not sand material containing asbestos due to a health risk.
•  Do not sand lead-based paint due to the risk of lead poisoning.
•  Do not eat or drink in the working area of the sander.
•  Do not allow people to enter the working area without wearing a dust mask.
• Where possible, seal off the working area to contain the dust for later removal.
• Your tool is designed for dry sanding only, not wet sanding.
•  Your tool is designed for general purpose light polishing of wood and metals.
•  Do not sand magnesium material due to the risk of fire.

Using an Extension Cable.

• If an extension cable is required, use an approved triple-core extension cable suitable for the power input of the tool.
•  Grounded tools always require a three-wire extension cable.
•  As the distance from the supply outlet increases you must use a heavier gauge extension cable. Using extension cables with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.
•  The smaller the gauge number of the wire the greater the capacity of the cord.
•  When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

Assembly

• Avoid unintentional starting of the machine. During assembly and for all work on the machine, the power plug must not be connected to the main supply.

• Carefully remove all parts included in the delivery from their packaging.

• Remove all packaging material from the machine and the accessories provided.

• Before starting the operation of the machine for the first time, check if all parts listed in the box content section have been supplied
  Note: Check the power tool for possible damage. Before further use of the machine, check that all protective devices are fully functional. Any lightly damaged parts must be carefully checked to ensure the flawless operation of the tool. All parts must be properly mounted and all conditions fulfilled that ensure faultless operation.

• Damaged protective devices and parts must be immediately replaced by an authorized service center.

Dust Bag

• We recommend that dust extraction is used at all times when using this product.
• To fit the dust bag (supplied) push it onto the extraction port as shown below.

Centralizing the Belt
Always make sure that the belt is running centrally before the machine is used. Centralizing the belt is essential to stop it from running off the rollers during use.

• With the belt facing the operator and the machine on its side, pull the trigger and observe how the belt is running. If this belt runs toward either edge it will need adjusting.
• Turn the centralizing knob(see 1) to adjust the belt to the center of the rollers.

Operation

Using the Belt Sander

• Hold the machine with both hands and assume a balanced posture.
• Press the On/Off trigger switch and allow the motor to reach full speed.
• Hold the machine parallel to the workpiece. Gently bring the belt in contact with the workpiece.

Caution! The sander may initially snatch forwards. Resist the forward’s motion and allow the sander to move forwards at a gradual pace. Do not use excessive, downward pressure; this may cause t he belt to snap.

• Keep the sander moving forwards at an even pace. Failure to do this will result in an uneven finish.
• When the operation is finished, lift the sander clear of the workpiece and release the On/Off trigger switch. Wait until the belt has stopped rotating before putting the sander down on workbench. Failure to do this will result in the machine running forwards.

Replacing the Sanding Belts

• Locate the belt tension lever and pull outwards. Take care as the lever is under tension and may spring back to the closed position. Continue pulling the lever outwards until it locks in to position.
• Manoeuvre the sanding belt off the rollers.
  NOTE: The Sanding belt has directional arrows printed on the inside of the belt.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Maintenance and Service Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the dust collector itself, pull the mains plug. If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by an approved service center.

1. Regularly check to see if any dust or foreign matter has entered the grills near the motor and around the trigger switch. Use a soft brush to remove any accumulated dust. Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst cleaning.
2. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
3. If the body of the sander needs cleaning, wipe it with a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but nothing like alcohol, petrol or other abrasive cleaning agents. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.

CAUTION! Water must never come into contact with the sander.

Replacing the Brushes

• During use, the carbon brushes will wear down and will be indicated by a possible loss of power and excessive sparking seen through the ventilation slots.When the carbon brushes have worn down to approximately 4-5mm, they will require replacing.
• Caution! Make sure that the sander is isolated from the mains power supply before fitting accessories, maintenance and adjustment if in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
• Place the sander on a workbench and using a screwdriver remove the carbon brush housing cover.
• Remove the carbon brush from the brush housing and replace it with a new one. Slide the new carbon brush into the brush housing. Repeat this procedure for the other carbon brush. Then replace the carbon brush housing coverNote: Carbon brushes must be replaced in pairs.
