Machine Setup
Listed below are the tools needed for setup of the
machine: 1 - #2 Phillips screwdriver
2 - ½” open end wrenches or (2) adjustable
wrenches.
To prepare the machine for use, follow this procedure:
1. Remove all components of the machine from its
package and check for damaged or missing parts.
2. Read Operation and Parts Manual, including all
danger, warning, and caution statements before
operating the machine. If you or the operator are
unable to read the language this manual is printed
in, have the manual fully explained before attempt-
ing to operate this machine.
3. Attach the sanding unit to the truck frame by se-
curing the two hand knobs through the truck frame
to the sanding unit. (see Figure 6). The eccen-
trics in the truck frame should be used for proper
alignment between the truck frame and sanding
unit. Match tick marks on spacers and frame;
one on right and two on left.
4. Route the motor power cable under the head pres-
sure strap and vacuum support strap, then over
the tilt assist strap.
5. Secure the handle assembly to the truck frame by
bolting it on with the four 5/16-18 bolts and nyloc
nuts supplied and plug in motor power cord. (see
Figure 7) Tighten the nuts that hold on the tilt
wheels and attach the vacuum support straps as
per figure 7.
6. Put Dacron filter around the cloth filter. (See Fig-
ure 8)
7. Set the dry vacuum on the vacuum support straps
with the center bottom in the 2” diameter hole.
NOTE: The vacuum hose port should be facing
the sanding unit motor. Attach the vacuum strap
around the base of the vacuum. (See Figure 9)
8. An optional disposable paper bag (60711A) is
available. If you wish to use the paper bag, re-
move the vacuum head and install a paper dust
control bag by inserting the deflector on the
vacuum into the mounting shoe of the paper bag.
To ensure the bag is properly seated on the de-
flector, the rubber seal should rest in the groove
of the deflector. (See Figure 10)
NOTE: Check the paper bag for proper seating
after transport to avoid dust in the vacuum tank.
9. Wrap the vacuum cord around the cleats located
on the back of the handle. Leave enough slack in
the cord to plug into the electric box. Turn the
vacuum switch to the “ON” position. The vacuum
switch should remain in the “ON” position. (See
Figure 11 below)
