Operating Instructions
Follow this procedure for sanding fl oors:
1. Move machine to work location. Decide the best approach
to sanding the desired area. When sanding the area, work
so that you are moving away from the power supply. This
will help to avoid entanglement with the power cord and
reduce the need to move the power cord as frequently.
2. Install the sandpaper. Use the same procedure outlined
in MACHINE SETUP for installing the pad(s), to install the
sandpaper. The sandpaper uses a hook and loop system
which is identical to how the pads attach to the drivers.
Center the sandpaper over the pad and press it against
the pad until the hooks on the pad have set into the
sandpaper.
WARNING: Injury can occur if the machine
is connected to a power source
while installing the pads or the
sandpaper. Disconnect the
machine before installing the
pad/sandpaper.
3. Connect the machine to an appropriately fused and
grounded circuit.
4. While holding the handle, reach down and slide the
knurled locking collar up the handle tube and hook it to
the pin in the tube by rotating it (see
fi gure 7). Lower the
handle down to a comfortable position.
5. To run the machine, push the interlock button (1), and
apply pressure to the levers (2). To stop the machine,
release the levers (2). See
fi gure 8.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the
fl ooring and to reduce swirling, keep the
machine in motion while the motor is
running.
NOTE: For sanding cuts and sandpaper, see page 10.
