MAINTENANCE
General
Regular periodic maintenance on your
Model G9910 Hook & Loop
Sander/Polisher will ensure its optimum
performance. Make a habit of inspecting
your sander each time you use it. Check
for the following conditions and repair or
replace when necessary:
1. Loose fasteners.
2. Worn switch.
3. Worn or damaged cords and
plugs.
4. Worn or damaged rubber backing
pad or abrasive sheet.
5. Any other condition that could
hamper the safe operation of this
machine.
Keeping Tool Clean
Your G9910 Rotary Sander will give you
years of trouble free service if you keep it
clean and free of built-up dust or grime.
Ensure that no air passages get blocked. If
they do, blow them out with compressed
air. WARNING: Wear safety glasses when
cleaning tool with compressed air.
Plastic parts can easily be cleaned with a
damp cloth, but never use water to clean
any electrical parts. Solvents should also
be avoided on plastic because of the pos-
siblity of damage.
If possible use a scraper to remove glue or
sap from your work; these elements may
hinder the effectiveness of the abrasive
sheets and cause unnecessary build-up of
grime on the sander.
Repair and Service
All quality tools will eventually wear from
normal use. Since sander is encased in a
double insulated plastic cover, leave repair
and service issues to a qualified service
technician. This includes brush replace-
ment, lubrication or any other internal
operation.
You can replace the rubber backing pad
that holds the abrasive sheets if it
becomes worn. Simply remove the four
screws that hold backing plate to the body
of the sander and replace with a new rub-
ber backing piece, installing the reverse of
removal. Always make sure you re-tighten
the rubber backing screws sufficiently
enough, so you don’t have problems when
you resume operations.
Disassembly and improper reassem-
bly of this device can result in elec-
trical shock danger. Always have this
device serviced by a qualified electri-
cal repair technician. Serious injury
will result.
