UNPACKING 

 

To unpack the sander, you will need tin snips, knife, screwdriver, hammer, 
and a wrench. 

1. 

Using the tin snips, cut the banding that is securing the packing box (if 

fitted). 

WARNING: EXTREME CAUTION MUST BE USED BECAUSE THE 

BANDING WILL SPRING AND COULD CAUSE INJURY. 

 

2. 

Dismantle the box. 

3. 

Remove any bolts that secure the machine to the base (if fitted). 

4. 

Remove the machine from the base with a forklift truck. The forklift must 

have sufficient capacity to achieve the job safely. 

5. 

Remove the base and lower the machine to the floor. 

Note. 

If you have any doubt about the described procedure, seek 

professional assistance. Do not attempt any procedure that you feel is 
unsafe or that you do not have the physical capability of achieving. 

 

 

 
 
 

ASSEMBLY & SETUP 

 

Very little assembly and setup is required, as the machine comes fully 
assembled. You will have to install the sanding belt and connect the air, 
dust collection and electrical supply as described in this manual. 

 

Cleaning the machine. 

Remove the rust protection packing-grease with WD-40®, green or citrus 
de-greasers or a similar grease-remover. It is important that you remove all 
the packing-grease. It is important not to introduce solvent into bearings or 
conveyor belt!
