IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ENCLOSED.
READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING TOOL.
IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE EMPLOYER TO PLACE THE INFORMATION
IN THIS MANUAL INTO THE HANDS OF THE OPERATOR.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN INJURY.
PLACING TOOL IN SERVICE
•
Always operate, inspect and maintain this tool in
accordance with all regulations (local, state, federal
and country), that may apply to hand held/hand
operated pneumatic tools.
•
For safety, top performance, and maximum durability
of parts, operate this tool at 90 psig
(6.2 bar/620 kPa) maximum air pressure at the inlet
with 3/8” (10 mm) inside diameter air supply hose.
•
Always turn off the air supply and disconnect the air
supply hose before installing, removing or adjusting
any accessory on this tool, or before performing any
maintenance on this tool.
•
Do not use damaged, frayed or deteriorated air hoses
and fittings.
•
Be sure all hoses and fittings are the correct size and
are tightly secured. See Dwg. TPD905–1 for a typical
piping arrangement.
•
Always use clean, dry air at 90 psig maximum air
pressure. Dust, corrosive fumes and/or excessive
moisture can ruin the motor of an air tool.
•
Do not lubricate tools with flammable or volatile
liquids such as kerosene, diesel or jet fuel.
•
Do not remove any labels. Replace any damaged label.
USING THE TOOL
•
Always wear eye protection when operating or
performing maintenance on this tool.
•
Always wear hearing protection when operating this
tool.
•
Keep hands, loose clothing and long hair away from
rotating end of tool.
•
Note the position of the reversing lever before
operating the tool so as to be aware of the direction of
rotation when operating the throttle.
•
Anticipate and be alert for sudden changes in motion
during start up and operation of any power tool.
•
Keep body stance balanced and firm. Do not
overreach when operating this tool. High reaction
torques can occur at or below the recommended air
pressure.
•
Tool shaft may continue to rotate briefly after throttle
is released.
•
Check for excessive speed and vibration before
operating.
•
Air powered tools can vibrate in use. Vibration,
repetitive motions or uncomfortable positions may be
harmful to your hands and arms. Stop using any tool
if discomfort, tingling feeling or pain occurs. Seek
medical advice before resuming use.
•
Use accessories recommended by Ingersoll–Rand.
•
These Sanders/Polishers will operate at the free speed
specified on the nameplate if the air supply line
furnishes 90 psig (6.2 bar/620 kPa) air pressure at the
tool. Operation at higher air pressure will result in
excessive speed.
•
Use only a sanding pad, buffing wheel or polishing
bonnet with these tools. Do not use any grinding
wheel, bur or metal removing accessory with these
tools. Never use an accessory having a maximum
operating speed less than the free speed of the
Sander/Polisher in which it is being used.
•
When using a pad having a shank, insert the shank
to full depth in the collet. When using a pad on a
threaded arbor, make certain the flange nut is
tightened securely. Check the tightness of the collet
nut or flange nut before operating a Sander/Polisher
to make certain it will not loosen during operation.
•
This tool is not designed for working in explosive
atmospheres.
•
This tool is not insulated against electric shock.
The use of other than genuine Ingersoll–Rand replacement parts may result in safety hazards, decreased tool
performance, and increased maintenance, and may invalidate all warranties.
Repairs should be made only by authorized trained personnel. Consult your nearest Ingersoll–Rand Authorized
Servicenter.
