HOW TO USE THE TOOL
Eff ective control of this powerful saw requires two-handed operation for maximum safety and ff ff
control.
The proper hold is to keep one hand on the main handle and the other hand on the sponge
grip on the column. It is vitally important to keep stable footing at all times, especially when
standing on scaffolding or stilts. ff ff
SANDING OPERATIONS
Once the machine and vacuum cleaner are set up and all safety measures and equipment are
in place, begin by turning on the vacuum cleaner and then the machine. (If you are using a
vacuum cleaner with integrated switching, then simply turn the machine on.)
Begin sanding and carefully contact the work surface as lightly as possible-just enough to
keep the sanding head fl at against the surface. fl
The joints in the sanding head allow the sanding disc to follow the contours of the work sur-
face.
The best technique is to use overlapping sweeps and keep the head in constant motion. Never
stop too long in any one place or there will be swirl marks. With experience it will be very easy
to create excellent results.
NOTE: Ensure that the sandpaper you are using is suited to the task. Overly coarse grit
paper may remove material too quickly to control. While overly fine grit paper may clog fi
too often and not shape down the surface.
CAUTION: Take care to avoid pointed projections and nails, etc. This will wipe out the
sandpaper and probably damage the sponge pad as well.
MAINTENANCE
KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. All plastic parts should be
cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could possibly
dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
Clean the vacuum swivel connector as too much dust will keep it from turning freely.
THE CARBON BRUSHES
The carbon brushes are a normal wearing part and must be replaced when they reach their
wear limit.
NOTE: Checking and replacing the carbon brushes should be entrusted to a qualified fi
service center.
