WARNING: For optimum dust removal, empty the dust bag
when it is no more than half full.
Do not use the dust bag when sanding metal. The hot
metal particles could cause residual wood dust or the bag
itself to catch fire. A vacuum cleaner adaptor can be used
to connect a household vacuum cleaner or workshop dust
extraction system to the sander. The adaptor fits into the
dust extraction port (11).
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight.
• The supply cord of the tool and any extension cord used
should be checked frequently for damage. It damaged,
have the cordset replaced by an authorised service
facility. Replace the extension cord if necessary.
Cleaning
1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all times.
2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is best done
with a soft brush or a rag.
3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
4. If the body of the sander needs cleaning, wipe it with
a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but
nothing like alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.
5. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
CAUTION. Water must never come into contact with
the sander.
