Foreseen Use of the Tool
This tool is designed for use with 7" diameter coated abrasive
discs of various grades of grit which are designed to be used at
the same or higher speed of this tool. The spindle thread is 5/8
- 11 UNC-2A and the tool can be used with other abrasive
devices that have the same female thread size and are designed
to run without a guard and have a rated speed equal to or higher
than the speed of the tool. Do not attempt to use any bonded
abrasive devices, i.e. grinding wheels, as those which could be
fitted because of their size, cannot be used without a suitable
guard. A guard is not available for this tool.
Do not fit any form of saw blade.
Do not fit any other abrasive or cutting device before checking
the suitability for use with this tool with the manufacturer or the
manufacturer's authorised distributor.
Do not modify this tool for other use, or for its use as a sander/
polisher before checking the intended alternative use with the
manufacturer or his authorised distributor.
Putting Into Service
Air Supply
Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give a measured air
pressure at the tool of 90 p.s.i./6.3 bar when the tool is running
with the trigger/lever fully depressed. Use recommended hose
size and length. It is recommended that the tool is connected to
the air supply as shown in figure 1. Do not connect the tool to
the air line system without incorporating an easy to reach and
operate air shut off valve. The air supply should be lubricated. It
is strongly recommended that an air filter, regulator, lubricator
(FRL) is used as shown in Figure 1 as this will supply clean,
lubricated air at the correct pressure to the tool. Details of such
equipment can be obtained from your supplier. If such
equipment is not used then the tool should be lubricated by
shutting off the air supply to the tool, depressurising the line by
pressing the trigger on the tool. Disconnect the air line and pour
into the intake bushing a teaspoonful (5ml) of a suitable
pneumatic motor lubricating oil preferably incorporating a rust
