before using it.
. Machines can cause flammable materials and vapors
to burn. Do not use the machine with or near sol-
vents, thinners, fuels, or other flammable materials.
. To prevent the risk of fire or explosion:
a) Keep the machine away from sources of ignition,
as they could create an explosion during use.
b) Keep the work area well ventilated. Poorly ventila-
ted work areas can create an explosive atmosp-
here when they contain solvents, alcohol, thinners,
certain finishes or any kind of combustible mate-
rial.
c) Never leave a full dust bag in the machine.
Remove the dust bag when you have finished your
work.
d) Empty the dust bag when it is 1/3 full.
e) Always empty the sanding dust into a metal contai-
ner. This container must be outside the building.
f) Do not put the contents of the dust bag into a fire
or furnace.
g) Use a hammer and punch to set allthe nails flush
against the floor so that the sanding drum will not
touch them and create sparks which might cause
a fire in the dust bag.
Read these instructions carefully before operating or attempting to
carry out any service or maintenance procedure on this product.-
. Do not use the machine if it is not completely assem-
bled.
. To prevent electric shocks and personal injury,
always disconnect the power supply before chan-
ging the sandpaper, emptying the dust bag, leaving
it unattended or attempting any maintenance or ser-
vice of the machine.

tion before connecting the cable to the electrical
power supply.

. Keep the cable away from the underside of the
machine to avoid contact with the sandpaper as this
could cause electrocution. Always keep the cable on
top of the machine.
. Moving parts can cause injury and/or damage. Keep
hands, feet and loose clothing away from all the
moving parts of the machine.
. Make sure that all guards, doors and covers are
secure and in place before starting to sand.
. Check that all warning labels are legible and duly
stuck on to the machine. Should any of them become

To install and adjust the sandpaper, proceed as
follows:
EXPANDIBLE DRUM:
This type of drum uses unless sandpaper which
you slide onto the drum. When the drum spins, the
rubber expands and firmly holds the sanding belt
(Fig. 18a,b)
BAR CLAMP DRUM:
Easy access to the drum allows quick change of the
sanpaper which is held on the drum by a metal bar
with screws (Fig. 18c,b)
CONVENTIONAL DRUM:
Cut out the sandpaper to the same size as the pat-
ter provided with the machine.
Raise the lid covering the drum (Fig. 18).
lnsert one side of the sandpaper into the slot on the
drum, turn the drum around until it is covered with
sandpaper and insert the other extreme into the
same slot (Fig. 19a,b)
Use both keys to adjust the sandpaper against the
drum by turning one key fonryard and the other
backward, as in (Fig. 19c)
Make sure that the sandpaper has been correctly
inserted.

. To prevent electric shock keep the machine in a dry place.
. Do not expose the machine to rain.
. The machine cable and connection plugs must be in per-
fect condition.
. Unplug the machine after use.
. The machine must be connected to a grounded electrical
circuit in order to protect the operator from electric
shocks.
. Make sure that you are connecting the machine to 220-
240V.
. When connectingto 22O-240V make sure that the electri-
cal circuit in the house or building is grounded.
. Do not cut, remove or break the ground pin.
. Do not use a machine with a damaged plug or cable.
. Do not use the machine if the on-off switch doesn't work
correctly.

the
hold
Move the machine fonrvard slowly and push down the
drum control lever (Fig. 26).
Move the machine slowly and constantly.
Before reaching the end of the circuit marked out by
the machine, lift the drum gently (Fig.27).
Pull the machine back over the mark it left when it star-
ted moving, lowering the drum gently when you start
the backward movement.
Keep the sander in motion while the drum is working
or marks will appear which are very difficult to remove
with further sanding.
Always work from left to right.
ln order to obtain satisfactory sanding, the sandg.r
should be passed over the surface several times with
different sizes of sanding grain.
We recommend that the sander be passed over the
surface at least three times if the floor is new. lf the
floor in question has already been varnished we
recommend that the sander be passed four times,
according to the following chart:
Passes New floors Old floors
first grit 30 - 36 grit 24
second grit 60 grit 36 - 40
third grit 100 grit 60
fourth grit 100

It is important to check the tension of the poly - V belt
and change it if necessary. Loosen the screw to adjust
or change the belt and then tighten it.
The belt must neither too tight nor too loose.
Remember that over-tight belt make it difficult to start
the motor and that the drum will turn freely if they are
too loose (Fig. 28).
Check that the drum surface is in good condition and
that there is no sawdust inside it, as this could throw it
off balance (Fig. 29).
Clean the sanding drum from time to time, using air to
clean out the drum chamber.
Check the wheels periodicatty (Fig. 30).
. Make sure that the surfaces do not have glue or
debris stuck to them.
. Change them when worn.
. Clean the bearings with air.
ln order to avoid inconvenient setbacks, we suggest
that you carry the following along with your normal
tools:
.aPoly-Vbelt.
. a dust bag.
. a set of capacitors.
ln this way you will be sure that your machine will
always function (Fig. 31).

. Below we offer a series of suggestions which will
enable you to resolve some of the most frequent
problems which arise when sanding wooden flo-
ors.
. Sometimes the belt make a noise as if it is slip-
ping. This means that it is not fitted tighfly enough
or that it is worn and need changing.
. The ball bearings are protected against dust and
are self-lubricating. However, they have a limited
life span depending on the amount of time the
machine is in use.
Chances are that the machine will have sucked in
a nail, a piece of wood or any other foreign body
which will have blocked the blades of the fan.
To solve this problem, try to turn the blades
manually and remove the foreign body that is blo-
king it.
. Firstly, clean the floor to make sure that there are
no nails lying around.
. Brush the floor before sanding to avoid remains
of materials which could damage the rubber
drum.
. By way of indication, their useable life is approxi-
mately: . Take care not to insert sandpaper which is too
long, as this will cause it to fold and leave marks
on the floor. lt could also cause the sandpaper to
break while working.
. lf the motor functions haltingly once it has been
switched on and set in motion, this means that:
a)The electric voltage is too low.
b)The cable is too long or the cross-section is
inappropriate.
c)The work capacitor is defective.
d)The motor is defective.
. lf the motor does not start, thrs means that:
a)The electric voltage is too low.
b)The starting capacitor is defective.

. No matter what the case, if you hear a strange
noise, check whether it is coming from the drum,
motor or fan. Run the motor together with the
drum alone and then the motor with the suction
tube alone, which will make it easy to pinpoint the
noise. Once found, the faulty bearing has to be
changed.
. Should you notice that the fan is not turning, the
machine is not vacuuming, and that the fan belt
is making a slipping noise, STOP THE MOTOR.
to

c)There is no electricity in the plug.
d)The cable pins are not properly connected.
e)The motor is defective.
Should the demand limiter jump when the motor
is started, it means that the house has less than
15 amps. lf this happens, DO NOT INSIST ON
TRYING TO MAKE lT START, as you will only
succeed in burning the capacitor.
. lf you observe that the machine is sanding more
on one side than the other, it means that it is not
exactly levelled. See the section Leveling the
machine in this manual.
. These usually appear on the floor like a thread
after the last sanding (fine grain). This is becau-
se a tiny stone has left a mark on the sandpaper
which, in turn, is leaving a thread-like mark on
the floor. The solution is to change the sandpa-
per and clean the floor well before passing the
fine-grain sandpaper.
. Sawdust, glue or any kind of material which
sticks to the wheels can leave marks on the floor.
Always make sure that the wheels are comple-
tely clean before sanding.
. Excessively long pieces of sandpaper can crea-
te a fold on the drum and cause
marks. Avoid this anomaly by cutting
the piece of sandpaper to exactly the
same shape as the sample provided with the
machine.
. Any material leftovers which get stuck between
the drum and the sandpaper can also leave
marks on the floor. Always check the surface of
the drum to ensure that it is clean and in good
condition.
. When using the machine, try to maintain a uni-
form and constant sanding speed. Otherurise,
marks might appear on the floor.
. Lowering the drum too quickly will cause marks,
.-.==- which will be even more
obvious if you pass over them
€ again in the same direction.

stops" is by sanding the mark on the floor at 45o.
. Always carry a spare set of capacitor with you.
.lf the building has a voltage lower than 220-
240V, you might have problems starting the
motor. ln winter, with low temperatures, the belts
and interior of the bearings stiffen, meaning that
the motor might take longer to start.
DO NOT INSIST ON TRYING TO START THE
MOTOR. This will only cause the capacitor to
burn out.
