- Good grinding effects and quality are mainly decided by choosing the right abrasive material. Ensure that the
sanding disc is suited to the task: coarse grit paper may remove material quickly, and fine grit paper may clog too
often and not shape down the surface.
CAUTION:
Take care to avoid sharp projections, nails, screws etc. This will wipe out the sanding disc and damage the
sanding pad.
- Once finishing the sanding task, switch off the machine.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
CAUTION:
To prevent accidents, make sure to turn the switch off and disconnect to the plug from the power receptacle.
Inspecting the machine
- Keep the machine clean.
- Since use of a dull tool will degrade efficiency and cause possible motor malfunction, replace the tool as soon as
abrasion is noted.
- All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could
possibly dissolve or damage the material.
- Clean the vacuum swivel connector.
Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be
loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could result in serious hazard.
Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
- For safe and proper working, always keep the machine and ventilation slots clean.
- Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air.
Changing the sanding pad (Fig 7)
- Hold the sanding pad (13) firmly and use the hex wrench to unscrew the screw M6x16 (15).
- Dismount the damaged pad and install a new one.
- Tiighten the screw (15).
Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig 8)
The Motor employs carbon brushes which are consumable parts. When they become worn to or near the “wear
limit”, it could result in motor trouble. The power tool must then be sent to an after-sales service agent.
When you have to replacement the carbon brushes by yourself, please following the order
：
- Loosen and remove the two brush covers (2) on both sides of the motor housing.
- Remove the carbon brushes.
- After replacing the carbon brushes, reinstall and screw the two brush covers (2).
CAUTION:
Repair, modification and inspection must be must be carried out by a LEMAN Authorized Service Center.
In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country
must be observed.
DISPOSAL
Do not dispose of electric tools together with household waste material!
In observance of European Directive on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its
implementation in accordance with national law, electric tools that have reached the end of their life
must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.
