ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Dust collection bag assembly
1. Fit the dust collection bag (5) by turning gently until
it snaps into place.
2. The dust is extracted directly into the dust bag
through the sanding disc and the oscillating sanding
base plate (1).
3. Turn and pull the dust collection bag simultaneously
to remove it again.
For safety reasons it is essential to use the dust
bag or a dust extraction system.
Installing and changing the sanding discs
Use only sanding discs with the corresponding
dimensions and perforated holes.
▪
Place the sanding disc on the base plate (1). Check
that the holes in the sanding discs match the
oscillating base plate.
▪
To remove the sanding disc, you only need to pull it
out.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
When working with the orbital sander, you should
consider some precautions and operating procedures:
▪
Hold the sander firmly. Loss of control of the sander
can cause serious injury;
▪
When working on loose or small parts, use fixing
devices to secure the parts firmly and securely;
▪
Do not apply excessive pressure to the sander against
the workpiece/object. If the speed decreases
abruptly, reduce the pressure on the sander
immediately;
▪
Never put down the orbital sander before the
oscillating sanding base plate (1) is completely
stopped;
▪
Wear hearing protection when using the sander.
Noise exposure may cause hearing loss;
▪
Switch the sander off immediately if any of the
following problems occur:
- Leakage of lubricant through ventilation holes;
- Damage to the sander housing;
- Damage to the ON/OFF switch;
- Appearance of smoke or characteristic burning
smell;
Variable speed control dial
The orbital sander is equipped with a variable speed
control dial (3), with 6 speed levels.
Level 1: Lower speed;
Level 6: Higher speed;
Starting and stopping the orbital sander
1. Before plugging in the power cord (4), make sure the
ON/OFF switch (2) is turned off;
2. Hold the sander by the handle;
3. To switch on the sander, press the ON/OFF switch (1)
to position I;
4. To switch off the sander, press the ON/OFF switch, to
position 0;
Orbital sander handling
1. Place the entire surface area of the sanding disc on
the material;
2. Switch on the orbital sander, and move it with some
pressure on the workpiece, making circular/transverse
and linear movements;
3. Use a thicker sanding disc for greater material
removal and a thinner sanding disc for finishing stages.
To decide on the best type of sanding disc to use,
perform tests before use on the final product.
The dust created while the equipment is in use can
be hazardous to health:
•
Always wear goggles and dust mask when sanding;
•
All individuals working with the sander or coming
into the work area should wear a dust mask;
