IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (FOR ALL TOOLS)
WARNING: When using Electric Tools, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury,
including the following.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don’t expose power tools to rain. Don’t
use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit.
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded sur­
faces. For example, pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept away from work area. Do not let
visitors contact tool or extension cord.
STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and high or
locked-up place—out of reach of children.
DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was In­
tended.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force small tool or attachment to do the job of heavy-duty
tool. Don’t use tool for purpose not intended, for example, don’t use circular saw for
cutting tree limbs or logs.
DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught In
moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended when working
outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dustmask if cutting operation is dusty.
DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from recepta­
cle. Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges.
SECURE WORK, Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand
and it frees both hands to operate tool.
DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE, Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safe per­
formance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool
cords periodically and if damaged have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect
extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and
free from oil and grease.
DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before servicing, and when changing ac­
cessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that
keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry plugged-in tool with finger on
switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only exten­
sion cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool
when you are tired.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that
is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction
manual. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.
20. DO NOT OPERATE portable electric tools near flammable liquids or in gaseous or
explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks might
ignite fumes.

SANDING
It is not necessary to exert a lot of pressure on the tool when sanding horizontally. A slight
amount of pressure (just to control the tool) is usually sufficient to ensure satisfactory re­
sults. Any excess will reduce its efficiency.
In order to obtain an optimum finish, it is essential to progressively reduce the grain size of
the paper being used. With each change in grain size, it is recommended to sand at right
angles in relation to the previous sanding. In order to obtain a perfect finish, after using a
very fine-grained paper, we recommend wiping the work surface with a slightly damp rag
and sanding again with the finest paper possible.
In order to obtain maximum dust collection, it is important to empty the dust bag fre­
quently, and make sure opening in housing is not clogged.
The rate at which the dust bag will fill up is largely dependent on the type of material being
sanded and the size of grit used. A good rule of thumb is to empty the bag when it be­
comes about 1/3 full. So that the recovery bag can be thoroughly cleaned, it is washable
and must be dried before replacing in sander.
TOOL CARE
Keep your machine as clean as possible by wiping with a clean cloth and occasionally
blowing through with air.
Avoid overloading your sander. Overloading will result in a considerable reduction in
speed and efficiency and the unit will become hot. in this event, run sander at a “no load’’
condition for a minute or two. This may be accomplished by holding unit away from work
surface and allowing it to run “free speed.’’
