MAINTENANCE
WARNING
The tool should never be connected to a power supply
when you are assembling parts, making adjustments,
cleaning, performing maintenance, or when the tool is
not in use. Disconnecting the tool will prevent accidental
starting that could cause serious injury.
WARNING
When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or
cause product damage.
GENERAL
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial
solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean
cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
WARNING
Do not at any time let brake fl uids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can
damage, weaken or destroy plastic.
Electric tools used on fi berglass material, wallboard,
spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to
accelerated wear and possible premature failure because
the fi berglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to
bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we
do not recommended using this tool for extended work on
these types of materials. However, if you do work with any
of these materials, it is extremely important to clean the
tool using compressed air.
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing
dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a
suffi cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of
the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no
further lubrication is required.
CLEANING THE SANDING SHEETS
The sanding sheets that came with your sander are
made to be re-used. Therefore, it is important that they
be cleaned periodically to remove sanding residue and
foreign material that can accumulate over time.
One of the ways to clean sanding sheets is to rub the
sheets with a hard rubber block. You can also use the clean
rubber sole of a shoe.
WARNING
Always remove scrubbing or sanding pad from sander
before cleaning. Failure to do so could cause serious
personal injury.
