DETAILED SAFETY REGULATIONS
When sanding wood and metal surfaces coated with paints with
lead additives, harmful or toxic dust may arise. Contact or inhalation
of the dust may endanger operator's or other persons' health. Use
appropriate personal protection measures such as filter masks and
safety glasses. Use dust extraction system.
PRIOR TO SANDER OPERATION
• During operation hold the sander firmly with both hands.
• Ensure the abrasive paper does not touch processed material
prior to switching the sander on.
• Ensure the abrasive paper is well installed before switching the
sander on.
• Do not touch moving parts of the sander.
• After switching off, do not put away the sander until all moving
parts stop.
• Use protective mask if the dust appears during sanding. Dust,
which appears when sanding surfaces coated with lead-based
paint, some types of wood and metal, is harmful.
• Pregnant women and children should not enter the room where
lead-based paint is removed with the use of sander.
• Do not eat, drink or smoke in the room where lead-based paint is
removed with the sander.
• Avoid using long extension cords.
WHEN OPERATING THE SANDER
• Wear earmuff protectors and protection half-mask always when
using the sander.

• Ensure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging the
sander to power supply.
• Keep the power cord away from moving parts of the sander.
• Use safety goggles or glasses when operating the sander above
head.
• When operating the sander do not apply excessive pressure that
might stop the tool.
CAUTION! This device is designed to operate indoors.
The design is assumed to be safe, protection measures and
additional safety systems are used, nevertheless there is always a
small risk of operational injuries.
CONSTRUCTION AND USE
Orbital sanders are hand-operated power tools with insulation class
II. Tools are driven by single-phase commutator motors. Orbital
sander is designed for sanding and polishing surfaces of wood,
metal, plastic and similar materials, with the use of sanding paper
with appropriate gradation. Range of use covers repair and building
works, and any work from the range of individual, amateur activities
(tinkering).
Do not use the sander for sanding surfaces that contain
magnesium or asbestos, or covered with gypsum.

PREPARATION FOR OPERATION
CHOOSING SANDING PAPER
Coarse-grained sanding paper is used for coarse processing of most
materials, while fine-grained paper is used for finishing works.
• When the surface is not flat, start the work with coarse-grained
sanding paper and continue until the surface is flat.
• Next use middle-grained paper to remove traces of coarse
processing.
• To finish the work use fine-grained sanding paper.
INSTALLING SANDING PAPER
Orbital sander is equipped with pad with so called hook-and-loop
and only perforated sanding paper of appropriate size should be
used.
• Put the sanding paper close to the sander backing pad (8).
• Place the paper so its (a) holes match holes on the sander backing
pad (fig. A).
• Press the sanding paper against the backing pad (8).
• Ensure that the holes on the sanding paper and backing pad fully
match; it ensures possibility of dust extraction.
The dust bag is located in a plastic case. In order to empty it, the
lower section of the plastic case must be slid down, the dust bag
must be taken out of its mount and its contents can be disposed
of. The dust bag must be fastened in the reverse order to the
disassembly.
OPERATION / SETTINGS
SWITCHING ON / SWITCHING OFF
The mains voltage must match the voltage on the rating plate
of the sander.
Switching on – set the switch button (1) to position I (fig. C).
Switching off – set the switch button (1) to position O.
ORBITAL SANDER OPERATION
• Whole area of backing pad must rest on the processed surface.
• Turn the sander on and apply moderate pressure; move it on
the processed material in circular movements, in transverse or
lengthwise direction.
• For coarse processing use sanding paper with coarse grain, for
finishing processing use fine-grained paper. It is best to match the
type of sanding paper by trials and errors.
• When finishing polishing, reduce pressure, lift the sander above
the processed surface and only after that switch the tool off.
