PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR OPERATION
Note! When assembling the components, pull out the power plug to disconnect the tool from the power supply.
Sander Handle Extension (II)
The sander features an extendable handle, which saves space during storage and facilitates transport.
Before starting work, set the correct length of the handle to ensure safe and effi cient operation.
Pull the coupling lever, extend the handle to the desired length and snap the coupling lever into place by pushing it towards the
handle. Make sure that the handle does not change its length spontaneously during the sander operation.
Note! Clean the inner part of the handle of dust and other contaminants after you have fi nished work. Sheathing the extended part
of the handle when it is dirty may later prevent the extending action.
Dust Extraction Hose Installation (III)
The sander comes with a fl exible hose which allows the sander to be connected to a dust extraction system such as an industrial
vacuum cleaner.
Connect the hose by sliding the hose coupling into the handle grip opening until it stops.
Connect the free end of the hose to the dust extraction system. This may require additional adapters which are not supplied with
the product.
To disassemble the hose, follow the above procedure in the reverse order.
The hose coupling is equipped with a ring for adjusting the dust extraction force. The dust extraction force must be selected
experimentally during operation. The greatest force will not always be the most eff ective. The airfl ow generated during operation
may cause the sander to suck too much to the ground surface, which will make it diffi cult for dust to move towards the holes in
the disc or its edges, and reduce the performance. If the extraction force is too low, the dust generated during operation will stay
on the material.
Sanding Sheet Replacement (IV)
Note! Make sure the sanding sheet is free from damage before installing it. If you notice any damage in the form of folds, cracks,
tears or holes, replace the sheet with a new one which is free of damage.
The sanding sheet must be provided with a surface which allows it to be attached on the disc by means of Velcro pad. The sheets
should have holes in the same places as the holes in the tool disc. Only then will it be possible to extract the dust generated during
operation eff ectively.
Place the sheet on the disc coaxially so that the holes in the sheet match the holes in the tool disc. The edge of the sanding disc
must not come into contact with the tool guard or the peripheral brush of the guard.
PRODUCT OPERATION
Note!
All the assembly steps described above must be carried out before you start working.
Starting the Sander
Do not start the sander while leaning the work head against any surface with the sanding sheet being in contact with any object.
This may lead to a loss of control of the tool and cause serious injury.
The sander is fi tted with a rotary knob (V), which allows you to adjust the motor speed, which translates into disk speed or the
delta oscillation speed, depending on a head mounted. The knob is marked with appropriate signs to indicate the direction of the
knob rotation for speed control.
Check that the product switch is in the “O” off position (VI).
Move the speed controller to the maximum speed position.
Start the dust extraction system.
Grip the sander with both hands - one hand on the front handle grip and the other on the rear handle grip.
Use your thumb to move the switch to the “I” on position (VII).
The switch is equipped with a lock that allows it to retain the “I” on position without the need for continuous hold. This makes long-
term work easier. Press the rear part of the switch and allow it to retract to unlock the switch. If the switch is not locked, releasing
it will automatically move it to the “O” off position, which will stop the tool work. The disc may be still spinning for some time after
turning off the sander. Wait until the disc has stopped revolving completely before putting the sander down. It is forbidden to stop
the disc by pressing it against the worked surface.
The disc will start operating at its nominal speed.
Retain the sander position and observe its run for approx. 1 minute. If you notice any signs of malfunction such as increased
vibration or excessive noise, turn the sander off immediately using the ON/OFF switch, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet,
and search for the cause of the malfunction. It is forbidden to resume operation without rectifying the fault.
