American Sanders
Operator's Manual (EN) - American B2
FORM NO. 70896A - 5 -
Introduction and Machine Specifications
The American B-2 is specifically designed for finishing floor edges, stairs, and other hard-to-reach surfaces. The
handle location and low center of gravity make the American B-2 easy to operate.
The excellent cutting power comes from a powerful universal type motor. A motor that delivers maximum
performance without slowing down or overheating. Its exclusive two speed control when switched to hi-speed
produces 3200 rpm for fast, rough sanding. At low speed, the American B-2 operates at 2800 rpm for fine, finish
sanding. A non marking disc guard protects the rubber pad, permitting the edger to work right up to the base-
board or wall.
Also standard is a convenient built-in headlight. Powerful fan and sanding disc housing design provides efficient
dust pickup. Plus an easy to remove dust pipe that makes cleaning a quick and simple task.
