MAINTENANCE
Replacing the Hook & Loop Backing Pad
After considerable use, the hook and loop backing pad (4) surface will become
worn, and must be replaced when it no longer offers a firm grip. The replacement
backing pad (SPDSG-0026, SPDSG-0026N) can be ordered through the Special
Orders Desk at any Bunnings store.
1. To replace, remove the four philips head screws by rotating anti-clockwise.
2. Place new backing pad on the tool and retighten the four philips head screws
by rotating clockwise.
Keep the ventilation slots of the sander clean at all times. If possible prevent
foreign matter from entering the vents.
After each use, blow air through the sander housing to ensure it is free from all
dust particles that may build up.
CAUTION: Excessive build-up of dust particles may cause the sander to
overheat and fail.
If the enclosure of the sander requires cleaning, use a soft, moist cloth only. Do
not use solvents.
CAUTION: Never immerse any part of the sander in liquid.
Carbon brushes will wear out after many uses, causing the sander to spark and/or
stop. The brushes are a wearing component of the sander and should be replaced
prior to the carbon wearing out completely. Take the sander to a suitably qualified
electrician or power tool repairer for replacement. Always replace both brushes at
the same time.
Note:
Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused
by the repair of the tool by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the tool.
