Sanding
1. Attach a sanding disc with the required grit to the Hook and Loop Backing
Pad (8)
Note: Always start with a coarse grit paper, and work through progressively finer
grit papers until the desired finish is achieved
2. Hold the machine securely, using both hands, by the handles provided
3. Turn the tool on, wait until it has reached the desired speed, and then apply it
to the workpiece
WARNING: Never switch on the tool when it is in contact with the workpiece, it may
cause serious injury to the operator.
Note: In general, keep the tool at an angle of about 10 to 15° to the workpiece
surface.
4. Only apply moderate pressure to the sander
WARNING: Pressing too hard onto the workpiece may damage the tool or the
workpiece and will cause premature wear of the sanding disc.
5. Sand evenly over the workpiece surface; because the machine works in a
rotary motion it is not necessary to work with the grain
Polishing
1. Attach a clean Hook and Loop Lambswool Polishing Bonnet (9) to the Hook
and Loop Backing Pad (8)
2. Hold the machine securely, using both hands, by the handles provided
3. Turn the tool on, wait until it has reached the desired speed, and then apply it
to the workpiece
Note: In general, keep the tool at an angle of about 10 to 15° to the workpiece
surface.
4. Work across the surface using a wide sweeping motion; apply slight pressure
only
WARNING: Excess pressure will cause premature wear of the polishing bonnet and
result in a poor surface finish.
5. Continue until you have reached the desired surface finish and until all visible
polishing compound, if used, has been removed.
Other polishing tasks:
• Other compatible polishing sponges with M14 threads or hook and loop
surfaces are available from your Silverline stockist
• Sponges can be used for the application of polishing compounds
• Always use a polishing compound that is compatible with the workpiece
material, application method and desired surface finish

of the workpiece.

Maintenance
WARNING: Always disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any
maintenance/cleaning.
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear
quickly, and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine
with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to
blow through the ventilation holes
WARNING: Take extra care to clean the machine thoroughly, if used for both wood
and metal. Sparks from metal work can easily ignite wood dust!
Hook and loop surfaces
• Hook and loop surfaces need to be clean, free of dirt and foreign matter like
hair, fibres, sand etc.
• In order to provide adequate adhesion to secure fast rotating accessories, hook
and loop surfaces must be in good condition
• When used extensively, hooks and loops will become elongated or broken, and
the mechanism cannot provide the required strength of adhesion anymore
WARNING: The tool must not be used when hook and loop surfaces are worn out,
and parts must be replaced prior to further use.
• Replacement hook and loop backing pads and accessories are available from
your Silverline stockist.
Replacement brushes
• Over time the carbon brushes inside the motor may become worn
• Excessively worn brushes may cause loss of power, intermittent failure, or
visible sparking
• To replace the brushes, remove the Easy Brush Access Plugs (11) from both
sides of the machine. Remove the worn brushes and replaced with new.
Replace brush access plugs. Alternatively, have the machine serviced at an
authorised service centre
Note: This tool is supplied with one set of spare carbon brushes. Additional spare
brushes are available from your Silverline stockist.
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children

Always adhere to national regulations when disposing of power tools that are no
longer functional and are not viable for repair.
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE), with household waste
