ASSEMBLY OF EQUIPMENT
Mounting the abrasive sheet
ATTENTION! Mounting the abrasive sheet may be done only with disconnected power supply. Unplug the sander power cord
from the mains socket!.
sander allows to mount the paper or abrasive cloth in two ways. You can use the Velcro located on the foot of the tool. For this
purpose the paper should have one side adapted for fastening with Velcro. The dimensions of the sheet should, in this case,
correspond to the dimension of the tool foot given in the table.
The sheet should be mounted so it does not stick out beyond the feet, and the holes in sheet wold cover the holes in tool foot (II).
This will allow for effi cient sucking of the dust produced during operation.
In the case of paper or abrasive cloth, without mounting option by using the Velcro, there is possibility of installation by using latch-
es. In this case, the width of the sheet should be the same width as the width of the foot, but the length should allow for installation
with latches. Sheet dimensions are given in the table.
The sheet should be applied to the foot so, the holes in sheet would cover the holes in tool foot. This will allow for effi cient sucking
of the dust produced during operation. Then both ends of the sheet should be attached using the latches (III). You should pay
attention that sheet was is not misaligned relative to the foot and that it does not stick out beyond its longer edges.
Dust extraction
The tool is equipped with a dust extraction system. The use of a dust extraction system improves effi ciency and safety at work. A
fl exible hose connected to the dust extraction system, e.g. an industrial vacuum cleaner, must be fi xed to the dust extraction outlet.
Do not use household vacuum cleaners as dust extraction systems. Household vacuum cleaners are not suitable for extracting
dust generated during operation with a tool and such use can lead to damage to the vacuum cleaner.
The adapter for connecting the hose to the dust extraction outlet must be purchased separately. The connection must be made in
such a manner that the fl exible hose does not interfere with manoeuvring the tool during operation.
PRODUCT SERVICE
Preparing for operation
Before starting the work you should carry out all assembly operations described above.
Operation of the sander
If it is required, the workpiece should be fi xed in an appropriate manner, so it does not move during machining, for example, by
clamps or clips. Unproper mounting of the machined workpiece can cause its uncontrolled movement during operation, which
increases the risk of injury.
Use the personal protection equipment. in the form of an eye and ear protection, a dust mask, suitable protective gloves and
clothing.
Do all the assembly and adjustment actions.
Make sure, that the the switch is in the "off " position. and then connect the plug of power cord to the mains wall socket.
Grasp the sander with both hands for main and additional grip, and hold it in a safe position so, the feet and sanding sheet have no
contact with any object (VI). Press the switch with your fi nger. You should allow the sander to achieve its nominal working speed
and only then apply it to the workpiece. The switch has the ability to block during operation. If the lock-off switch is released while
holding down the switch, it will remain locked until the switch is pressed again.
You can turn off the sander by releasing pressure on the unlocked switch.
The sander must be hold in a safe position to its completely stop of working. It is forbidden to stop the tool foot by applying it to
the work surface. Then put off the sander, disconnect it from the mains by unplugging the power cord and start its maintenance.
Tips useful when working with the sander
It is forbidden to hold the sander in a diff erent way than by the handles. The wrong grip does not provide safe operation and can
cover the ventilation holes. This can lead to the destruction of the tool.
Grinding should not be too tight against the machined surface. Too much pressure can cause overheating of sander, or damage
the workpiece surface. and in the particular case, it can even lead to burst of the abrasive sheet or to damage to the foot of tool.
Hold sander in such a manner, that the grinding is performed by entire surface of the sandpaper sheet. This will allow for even
wear of sheet.
The sander should be moved towards you and away from you, and gradually to the side. Wood should be ground along the rings..
Grinding should be started with a thicker paper grain and gradually follow with the paper of fi ner grain, until you reach the required
surface, Avoid checking the status of the treated wood surface using bare hands. This may cause injury by splinters and burrs,
which are arising during processing.
The grit of paper should be selected depending on the work surface. Too high grit of the sandpaper will result in scratches on the
surface of the workpiece.
