Proper use of tool
This tool is designed for sanding all types of materials i .e . metals, wood, stone, plastics, etc . using abrasive designed for
this purpose . Do not use this tool for any other purpose than specified, without consulting your Mirka dealer .
Work stations
The tool is intended to be operated as a hand-held tool . It is always recommended that the tool should be used when
standing on a solid floor . It can be used in any position but before any such use, the operator must be in a secure
position, have a firm grip and footing and be aware that the tool can develop a torque reaction . See the section
“Operating instructions” .
Operating instructions
When unpacking the tool, make sure it is intact, complete and has not been damaged in transport . Never use a
damaged tool .
Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give a measured air pressure at the tool of 6 .2 bar (90 psig) when the tool is
running with the lever fully pressed . It is recommended to use an approved 10 mm (3/8") x 8 m (25 ft) maximum length
air hose . The tool should be connected to the air supply as shown in Figure 1 .
Do not connect the tool to the compressed air system without incorporating an easy to reach and operate air shutoff
valve . It is strongly recommended that an air filter, regulator and lubricator (FRL) are used as shown in Figure 1 as this
will supply clean, lubricated air at the correct pressure to the tool . Details of such equipment can be obtained from
your supplier . If such equipment is not used the tool should be manually lubricated .
To manually lubricate the tool, disconnect the air hose and put 2 to 3 drops of Würth art . no . 08930505 into the air
connection on the tool or similar oils . Reconnect the tool to the air supply and run the tool slowly for a few seconds to
allow air to circulate the oil . If the tool is used frequently, lubricate it on a daily basis . Lubricate the tool before longer
storage or if the tool slows down or loses power .
It is recommended that the air pressure at the tool is 6 .2 bar (90 psig) while the tool is running . The tool can run at
lower air pressures but we do not recommend using higher air pressure than 6 .2 bar (90 psig) .
