1) Remove the sanding disc guard by removing the two Phillips screws on top of the guard.
2) Remove the two locking handles on either side of the sander.
3) Remove the swivel studs and lift the table away.
4) Lift the edge of the disc and, gripping firmly, peel the disc away from the plate; turning the
plate as required to free the entire disc.
5) Remove and throw away. If you have been extremely fortunate all the adhesive will have been
removed with the disc. As this is rarely the case, be prepared to rub, scrape, pick etc.,
6) Clean the surface of the disc with a degreasing cleaner, (methylated spirit; acetone nail polish
remover borrowed from the female side of the family, if you don’t have a proprietary cleaner.)
Allow to dry off and wipe over with a clean dry cloth. Locate the sanding disc, peel the cover from
the adhesive surface and apply CAREFULLY to the disc.Use a piece of cloth in your hand or wear
a glove, to firmly press the abrasive to the disc, the application will be reinforced by a gentle
sanding action across the face when you first use the new sanding disc.
7) Replace the table and guard as described above, in reverse and continue operation.
Maintenance
DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY
!
There is very little mechanical maintenance that can be carried out on the machine. Most
prudent maintenance is preventative and concerned with keeping the machine clean.
Inspect and remove all dust/resin build ups, and blow the motor clean.
Remove the sanding disc guard, remove any build ups and clean them thoroughly to allow the
dust to travel over their surfaces smoothly.
