OPERATION
Always turn off the air supply, drain hose of air pressure and detach
tool from air supply before installing, removing or adjusting any part or
accessory on this tool, or before performing any maintenance on this
tool.
Aftermountingsandpaper,startthissanderunderabenchinorderto
make sure sandpaper is firmly attached. Set the sander down on the
work evenly and move it slowly back and forth in wide, overlapping
areas.Additionalpressuremaybeusedtomakemoreefficientuseofthe
tool when material to be sanded is thick. Lighter pressure may be used
in delicate sanding or when using edges of sanding pad. Whenfinished
sanding, lift it off the work before stopping the motor.
NOTE: During operation, safety goggles should always be worn to
guard against flying rust and chips (users and bystanders).
AIR SUPPLY
Tools operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is recommended that
air pressure measures 90 psig at the tool with the trigger fully depressed
andnoloadappliedtothetool.Higherpressure(over90psig;6.2bar)
raises performance beyond the rated capacity of the tool, which will
shortentoollifeandcouldcauseinjury.
Alwaysuseclean,dryair.Dust,corrosivefumesand/orwaterintheair
line will cause damage to the tool. Drain the water from air lines and
compressorpriortorunningtool.Cleantheairinletfilterscreenweekly.
TherecommendedhookupprocedurecanbeviewedinFIG.1.
Theairinletusedforconnectingairsupplyhasstandard1/4"NPT.Line
pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air
hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be 3/8" I.D. and
fittings should have the same inside dimensions and be tightly secured.
Ensure an accessible emergency shut off valve has been installed in the
air supply line and make others aware of its location.
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
Lubricate the air motor daily with high quality air tool oil. If no air line oiler
isused,run1/2oz.ofoilthroughthetool.Theoilcanbesquirtedintothe
tool air inlet or into the hose at the nearest connection to the air supply,
thenrunthetool.Arustinhibitiveoilisacceptableforairtools.
WARNING:Afteranairtoolhasbeenlubricated,oilwilldischargethrough
theexhaustportduringthefirstfewsecondsofoperation.Theexhaust
port must be covered with a towel before applying air pressure to prevent
seriousinjury.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or erratic action.
Reducedcompressor output,excessive drain onthe airline, moisture
or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections of improper
size or poor condition may reduce air supply. Grit or gum deposits in the
tool may cut power and may be corrected by cleaning the air strainer
and flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of
SAE#10oilandkerosene.Ifoutsideconditionsareinorder,andthetool
continues erratic action or low power, disconnect tool from hose and
contact your nearest authorized service center.
