q) DO NOT exert additional pressure on the body of the tool: allow the blade or accessory
to do the work. By not exerting additional pressure you maintain a safer stronger grip on the
power tool when it breaks through the material, as well as reducing wear on the power tool
which will extend the power tool's service life. Additional pressure may also bend or twist the
accessory or blade which may cause it to break and cause injury. If the power tool allows for
being held with one or two hands hold with two hands whenever possible. ALWAYS exercise
caution when handling this power tool.
r) Sawing, cutting and abrasive actions create heat. This may affect the workpiece and power
tool. ALWAYS monitor the heat level and in the event of excessive heat switch off the
power tool and allow to cool before restarting work. Some power tools depending on design
may be more quickly and effectively cooled by running at high speed without load.
s) The power tool will draw in dust through the vents on its body. Excessive accumulation
of powdered metal may cause an electrical hazard and destroy the tool. ALWAYS ensure
the environment dust level is safe for the tool and ensure the vents are not blocked.
t) For mains-operated power tools, ensure the cable of the power tool is ALWAYS kept
behind the tool and never close to where the accessory or blade is operating.
u) DO NOT reach under the workpiece, rest the workpiece on your body, or hold the
workpiece while working on it, as contact with the blade or accessory protruding from the
workpiece can result in serious injury .
v) Anti-vibration gloves should be worn when operating power tools that produce large
amount of vibration, especially during long-term use.
w) For power tools with a rotating mechanism and accessories ensure the operator is not
wearing clothes or gloves with frayed threads, cords etc. that could be entangled in the
rotating mechanism dragging the operator's hand into the rotating accessory causing injury.
ALWAYS wear tight fitting work clothes, safety shoes. Remove jewellery and secure long hair.
NEVER wear fabric-based gloves that can produce strands of material when operating this type
of power tool.
x) DO NOT allow sanding sheets to wear away on the sanding pad. This will damage the
surface of the pad requiring replacement and may cause parts of the sanding sheet to fly off
the pad, causing operator injury.
y) DO NOT touch the moving sanding sheet.
z) Wire brush bristles are thrown by the brush even during ordinary operation. DO NOT
overstress the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily
penetrate light clothing and skin .
WARNING: The tool must ONLY be used for its intended purpose. Any use other than those
mentioned in this manual will be considered a case of misuse. The operator, and not the
manufacturer, shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from such cases of misuse. The
manufacturer shall not be liable for any modifications made to the tool, nor for any damage
resulting from such modifications

Before Use
WARNING: Always ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is removed from the power
supply, before fitting or removing accessories.
WARNING: Always wear suitable gloves when handling blades or other sharp accessories
Fitting a blade or scraper
1. Use the supplied hex key to loosen and remove the Mounting Bolt (9) and Mounting Washer (8),
turning the bolt anti-clockwise as you face the Mounting Spindle (6) (see Fig. I)
2. Position the blade or scraper on to the flange of the Mounting Spindle (6), so that the mounting
holes in the blade engage with the pins on the flange (see Fig. II)
3. The blade or scraper can be positioned at an angle not directly in line with the tool if
required, so long as the blade or scraper mounting holes are engaged with the pins on the
mounting flange
4. Re-fit the Mounting Bolt and Mounting Washer carefully, as shown in Fig. II, ensuring the blade
or scraper correctly sits in the flange pins as the bolt is tightened. The blade or scraper and
Mounting Spindle can be damaged if the pins are not inserted into the blade mounting holes
5. Before using the tool, check that the blade or scraper is securely fitted and the bolt is tight
Note: Blades or scrapers that are cranked or bent must be mounted on the tool so that the end of
the blade is away from the tool as shown in Fig. II.
Fitting the sanding pad & sanding sheets
1. Use the supplied hex key to loosen and remove the Mounting Bolt (9) and Mounting Washer (8),
turning the bolt anti-clockwise as you face the Mounting Spindle (6) (see Fig. I)
2. Position the supplied sanding pad on to the flange of the Mounting Spindle (6), so that the
mounting holes in the Sanding Pad (10) engage with the pins on the flange (see Fig. III)
3. The Sanding Pad can be positioned at an angle if required but normally a point of the triangle
base is directly in line with the body of the tool
4. Re-fit the Mounting Bolt and Mounting Washer carefully, as shown in Fig. III, ensuring the
Sanding Pad correctly sits in the flange pins, as the bolt is tightened. The Sanding Pad and
Mounting Spindle can be damaged if the pins are not inserted into the mounting holes in
the sanding pad
5. Before using the tool, check that the Sanding Pad is securely fitted and the bolt is tight
6. Select the required sanding sheet for your intended task (see 'Selecting the right grade of
sanding sheet' below)
7. The Sanding Pad and Sanding Sheets use a hook and loop system for attachment. To mount
the sheet carefully line up one corner of the sheet with a corner of the Sanding Pad and
gradually push the rest of the sheet on to the pad, checking alignment as you do so, until the
sheet is fitted correctly (see Fig. IV)
Selecting the right grade of sanding sheet
• Sanding sheets are available in a variety of different grades: coarse (60 grit), medium (120 grit)
and fine (240 grit)
• Use a coarse grit to sand down rough finishes, medium grit to smooth the work, and fine grit
to finish off
• Always use good quality sanding sheets to maximise the quality of the finished task
• It is advisable to do a trial run on a scrap piece of material to determine the optimum grades of
sandpaper for a particular job. If there are still marks on your work after sanding, try either going
back to a coarser grade and sanding the marks out before recommencing with the original choice
of grit, or try using a new piece of sandpaper to eliminate the unwanted marks before going on
to a finer grit and finishing the job
Operation
WARNING: Always wear adequate personal protection equipment, including eye, hearing and
respiratory protection, when working with this tool.
WARNING: Anti-vibration gloves should be worn when operating this tool, to protect users from
the effects of vibration produced by the tool.
Switching ON & OFF
1. Plug tool into mains via Power Cord (4). Hold the tool firmly by the Grip (2), with the
thumb over the ON/OFF Switch (3)
2. Slide the ON/OFF Switch forward until it locks,
to switch the tool ON
3. Slide the ON/OFF Switch backwards to switch the tool OFF
WARNING: Allow the tool to reach the required speed before making contact
with the workpiece.
WARNING: Motor vents allow heat generated from the motor to escape the body of the tool and
must not become blocked. Dust, wood chippings and swarf can block the motor vents and cause the
tool to shut down. Swarf, created when cutting metal, can also cause permanent damage if it enters
the tool. Do not allow dust, wood chippings and swarf to build up. Use a vacuum cleaner to keep the
work space clean, especially in confined areas, and when working with harmful substances.
WARNING: DO NOT inhale dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Some dusts may be toxic
especially from man-made composite materials.
