INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATIONS

3.1.

Air Supply

3.1.1. Ensure the sander air valve (or throttle) is in the "off" position before connecting to the air supply.
3.1.2. You will require an air pressure between 70-90psi, and an air flow according to the specification above.
3.1.3.

p

WARNING! 

Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90 psi while operating the sander. 

( Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be 

dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury. )

3.1.4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the sander 

and will invalidate your warranty.

3.1.5. Clean air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig 1.

3.1.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). 

The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.

3.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all

connections are secure.

3.2.

Couplings.

Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the air sander. To overcome this,

connect a leader hose to the sander. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to

the air line recoil hose. See fig 1 & 2. 

p

WARNING!

Disconnect sander from air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing 

maintenance. Replace or repair damaged parts. 

Use genuine parts only. Non-authorised parts may be

dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.

5.1. Lubricate the air saw daily with a few drops of Sealey air tool oil dripped into the air inlet to

prolong saw life. 

5.2.  Clean the sander after use and change pads when required.

5.3.  Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:

a)

Excessive drain on the air line. Moisture or restriction in the air pipe. Incorrect size or type of hose 

connectors. To remedy check the air supply and follow instructions in chapter 3.

b)

Grit or gum deposits in the sander may also reduce performance. If your model has an air strainer 

(located in the area of the air inlet), remove the strainer and clean it.  Flush the sander out with gum 

solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No 10 oil and kerosene.  Allow to dry before use.

If you continue to experience problems, contact your local Sealey service agent.

5.4.

For a full service contact your local Sealey service agent.

5.5.

When not in use, disconnect from air supply, clean sander and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.

1.2.  LEAD PAINT WARNING!

Paint once contained lead as a traditional ingredient. Contact with the dust from the removal of such

paint is toxic and must therefore be avoided. The following action must be taken before using the

sander on a surface that you suspect may contain lead paint.

1.

User must determine potential hazard relating to age of paint to be removed.

(Modern paints do not have lead content).

2.

DANGER! 

Keep all persons and pets away from the working area. The following persons are

particularly vulnerable to the effects of lead paint dust: 

Expectant women, babies and children.

3.

We recommend personal protection by using the following safety items:

a

)  Paint Spray Respirator (Our ref SSP16EN)  

b

)  PE Coated Hooded Coverall (Our ref SSP266).

c

)  Latex Gloves (Our ref SSP24).

4.

Take adequate measures to contain the paint dust, flakes and scrapings.

5.

Continue to wear safety equipment as in (3) above and thoroughly clean all areas when task is

complete. Ensure paint waste is disposed of in sealed bags or containers.

WARNING! Ensure you read, understand 

and apply safety instructions before use.

4.1.

Assembly

4.1.1. Place the guard (fig.3 - 3) around the gun 

collar (fig.3 - 4). Position the guard with the 

clamp at the top and tighten the clamp screw.

4.1.2. Remove lock nut (1) from gun hub and push 

lock nut through the centre of the appropriate 

size backing disc (2). The lock nut must be an 

exact fit in the backing disc. Screw the lock nut 

with the disc attached back into the gun hub. 

Hold the hub steady by inserting the holding rod 

provided into one of the holes in the side of the hub.(5)

4.1.3. Connect air supply to the air inlet (8) on the sander and

press the control valve trigger (6) to check that the sander is working correctly. 

4.1.4. The air flow may be regulated by turning the control knob (7) at the base of the gun handle.

4.2.

Operation:

Always use the grit pad appropriate for the job. Work progressively from coarse grades to 

finer grades. DO NOT go from coarse to fine in one step as it may be difficult to remove swirl marks left by

the coarser grit. DO NOT apply excessive pressure, let the sander do the work for you. Start the sander 

and bring the sanding disc to the the work surface evenly and slowly. Move the sander back and forth in 

overlapping areas. Remove the sanding disc from the work surface before stopping the sander. Regularly 

check the sanding pad for wear, always changed a cracked or damaged pad.

DO NOT allow sander to run in “idle rotation” for an extended period of time as this will shorten the sander’s life.

7

DO NOT carry the sander with your finger on the power lever. 

7

DO NOT direct air from the air hose at yourself or others.

When not in use disconnect from air supply and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
