OPERATION

KNOW YOUR BELT SANDER

Before attempting to use your sander, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements.

See Figure 1.

WARNING: IF ANY PARTS ARE MISSING DO NOT OPERATE YOUR SANDER UNTIL THE MISSING PARTS ARE
REPLACED. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Your sander has a precision built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 230 volts, 50 Hz, AC only
(normal household current).
Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of
power and the motor will overheat. If your tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.

WARNING:

WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY WITH YOUR SANDER TO MAKE YOU CARELESS. REMEMBER
THAT A CARELESS FRACTION OF A SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE INJURY.

The operation of any sander can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which
can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation, always wear safety
goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We
recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses
with side shields.
