ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The power supply to the Sander needs to be 120 volt/ 3.5 amp, sin-
gle phase, 60 Hz. The standard allowable voltage variation is plus or
minus 10%.

UNPACKING
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch overhead power lines, piping,
lighting, etc. if lifting equipment is used. Sander weighs approxi-
mately 32 lbs, proper tools, equipment and qualified personnel
should be employed in all phases of unpacking and installation.
Carton should be handled with care to avoid damage from drop-
ping, bumping, etc. Store and unpack carton with correct side up.

have occurred during transit. Check for loose, missing or damaged
parts. If any damage or loss has occurred, claim must be filed with

missing parts to dealer.
Sander is shipped partially assembled. End user will need to assem-
ble loose parts to machine.
IMPORTANT:
The tool has been coated with a protective coating. In
order to ensure proper fit and operation, the coating must be re-
moved. Remove coating with mild solvents such as mineral spirits
and a soft cloth. Nonflammable solvents are recommended. After
cleaning, cover all exposed metal surfaces with a light coating of
oil.

SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
For your own safety, read all of the instructions and
precautions before operating tool.
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
Some dust created by
using power tools contain chemicals known to the state

ductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
•
Lead from lead-based paints.
•
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products.
•
Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area and work with approved safety
equipment. Always wear
OSHA/NIOSH
approved, properly fitting
face mask or respirator when using such tools.
WARNING:
Always follow proper operating procedures as defined
in this manual even if you are familiar with the use of this or similar
tools. Remember that being careless for even a fraction of a second
can result in severe personal injury.
