BEFORE USING THIS AIR TOOL
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
When assembling discs to tools, stack discs together in following order, ”, 4 1/2”, 5 1/2” with side
marked as the sandpaper size toward the work. As the sandpaper wears on the outside diameter, you
may remove the large discs in descending order one at a time. DO NOT USE the 5 1/2” disc without the
” disc and 4 1/2” disc as backing or the 4 1/2” disc without ” disc as backing. The ” disc may be used
alone without another disc as backing.
Do not put additional pressure on the machine. This will only slow the speed of the pad, reduce sanding
efficiency and shorten the tool’s life. We recommend the air pressure of this sander at 90 PSI. Start the
sander off the work, set it down on the work evenly and move it slowly back and forth in wide overlap-
ping areas. When finished sanding, lift it off the work before stopping motor. Start the work with an abra
-
sive grit just coarse enough to remove high spots and roughness. Follow with additional sandings using
finer grits until the desired finish is obtained. Never go from a coarse grit to a fine grit in one step.
Lubricate the air motor with a good grade of air tool oil. Grit or gum deposit in the tool may cut power and
may be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil.
To ensure long life be sure to oil the tool daily. Pour 4 drops of Eagle air tool (SEA 20 non
detergent) oil into the air inlet, and then run the tool for a few seconds to clean.
If tool is an impact wrench fitted with a “Zirc” grease fitting:
The hammer mechanism of this tool also needs to be greased from time to time (depending
on usage). The tool is equipped with grease fitting for this purpose; use this connection to
re-grease the tool using Eagle impact wrench grease.
PLEASE USE EAGLE SEA 20 NON DETERGENT OIL
