DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. Do not disconnect the air supply hose until the compressor has been shut
down and the compressed air released from the air line.
2. Once the pressure has been released, disconnect the airline hose from
the sander.
STORAGE
1. Store the sander safely in its box in a dry, secure environment.
2. If the sander is not to be used for longer than 24 hours, run a few drops of
CLARKE airline oil into the air inlet and run the tool for a few seconds to
ensure that the oil has been well distributed throughout the sander.
3. When storing, ensure the blanking plug is replaced at the airline
connection port once the airline has been disconnected.
