GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING!
Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed
below, may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas
invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children and visitors
away while operating a power tool.
Distraction can cause you to lose
control.
Electrical Safety
1. Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your
body is grounded.
2. Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
3. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord to carry the tool or pull the plug
from an outlet. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Replace the damaged cords
immediately if you found one. The
damaged cords will increase the risk of
electric shock.
4. When operating a power tool outside,
use an outdoor extension cord which
marked “W-A” or “W”. These cordsare
rated for outdoor use , so it can reduce
the risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use the
tool while tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from the moving parts. Because
loose clothes, jewelry, and long hair
can be caught in the moving parts.
3. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure
switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying tools with your finger on the
switch or plugging in tools that have
the switch on will invite accidents.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the tool on. A wrench or

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
a key that is left attached to a rotating
part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance enable better
control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear
eye protection.Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for
appropriate conditions. Ordinary eye or
sun glasses are NOT eye protection.
Tool Use and Care
1. Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the work piece to a
stable platform. Holding the work piece
by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
2. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool
for your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it is designed.
3. Do not use tool if the switch can not
turn on or off. Any tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired before use.
4. Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustment,
changing accessories, or storing the
tool. Such preventive safety measures
can reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Keep the
cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
7. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the
tools operation. If damaged, have the
tool serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
8. Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool, may become
hazardous when used on another tool.
Service
1. Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of
injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only
identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the maintenance section

of this manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure to follow maintenance
instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Make sure that the foreign objects
such as nails and screws have been
removed from the work before

Centralizing the sanding belt
Check that the sanding belt is running
centrally before using .Centralizing the belt
is necessary to stop the belt running off the
rollers. Turn the machine with the belt
facing the operator (see Fig.5).Start the
Sander and observe how the sanding belt is
running. If the sanding belt is seen to move
along the rollers in either direction,it will
require centralizing before use.

OPERATION
Using the Belt Sander
Hold the machine with both hands and
assume a balanced posture. Press the
On/Off trigger switch and allow the motor
to reach full speed. Hold the machine
parallel to the work piece. Gently bring belt
contact with the work piece.
Caution! The sander may initially snatch
forwards. Resist the forwards motion and
allow the sander to move forwards at a
gradual pace. Do not use excessive,
downward pressure, this may cause the
belt to snap. Keep the sander moving
forwards at an even pace. Failure to do
this will result in an uneven finish. When
the operation finished ,lift the sander clear
of the workpiece and release the On/Off
trigger switch. Wait until the belt has
stopped rotating before putting the sander
down on workbench. Failure to do this will
result in the machine running forwards.
Replacing the Sanding belts
Locate the belt tension lever (see 1 of
Fig.7)and pull outwards. Take care as the
lever is under tension and may spring back
to the closed position. Continue pulling the
lever outwards until it locks in the position
shown in Fig.7.
