DOUBLE INSULATION
This tool is double insulated. Double insulated tools are
equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will only fit in a polarized outlet one
way. If the plug does not fit the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit the outlet, have a polarized outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. DO NOT change the plug.
Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
WARNING
Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electrical
shock. The double insulated system is intended to protect
the user from shock in event of a break in the tool’s
internal insulation.
NOTE:
Servicing of this product requires extreme
care and knowledge of the double insulation system
and should be performed only by a qualified service
technician. Always use original factory replacement parts
when servicing.
GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION
CORDS
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in
good condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord
or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit
should be protected with a 15 A time-delayed fuse. Before
connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the
switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is
rated the same as the current stamped on the motor
nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage
the motor.

VARIABLE SPEED DIAL
Refer to Figure 5
The variable speed dial increases or decreases the speed
from 6000 – 12000 RPM (1-Max). Use a higher setting on
harder materials and a lower setting on softer materials.
Material removal rate increases as speed increases.
SANDING
Sandpaper Selection
• Choose the correct grit and type of sandpaper for the
job.
- Aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and other synthetic
abrasives are best for power sanding
- Flint and garnet are too soft for economical use in
power sanding.
• Coarse grit will remove the most material and finer grit
will produce the best finish in all sanding operations.
• The condition of the surface to be sanded determines
the grit. Start with a coarse grit and sand until the
surface is uniform. Change to a medium grit to remove
the scratches left by the coarser grit. Finish with a finer
grit. Always continue sanding with each grit until surface
is uniform.
NOTE:
DO NOT use sander without sandpaper, the hook
and loop fastener sanding base will be damaged.
Sanding
• Start the sander and let it reach full speed and then
lower it to the workpiece.
• Move the sander slowly guiding it in a forward and
backward motion. DO NOT force or apply pressure to
the sander. Let the sander do the work.
• Check the sandpaper often for wear. Change sandpaper
when grit is worn.
• Empty the dust box frequently.
• When sanding is complete, turn sander off and remove
the sander from the workpiece.
