Congratulations on purchasing a Full Boar drywall sander kit.
It will make quick work of sanding plasterboards to achieve a
smooth finish, ready for paint.
Read and understand the instruction manual before operating
the demolition hammer. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury or equipment damage.
INTRODUCTION GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions, including the
following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury
and material damage.
Read the whole manual carefully, and make sure you know how to switch the tool off in an emergency,
before operating the tool. Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for
future reference. The manufacturer cannot accept any liability for damage or accidents which arise
due to a failure to follow these instructions and the safety information.
Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate is
identical to the mains data.
This tool is double insulated therefore no earth wire is required.
The power supply for this product should be protected by a residual current device (rated at 30mA or
less). A residual current device reduces the risk of electric shock.
If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord
available through the service organisation.
Note: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this
tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical
insulation failure within the tool.
Using an extension lead
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool. Before use, inspect
the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing. Replace the extension lead if damaged or
defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of an extension lead
not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is damaged or defective may result in a risk of fire
and electric shock.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term ‘power tool’ in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. 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.
c. Keep children, pets and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use
of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries. Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch, or energising power tools that have the switch on, invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

WARNING! This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Safety warnings common for sanding operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function as a sander. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as grinding, wire brushing or cutting-off are not recommended to be performed with this
power tool. Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create a hazard and cause personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just
because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool.
Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power
tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.
f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the spindle thread. Accessories that do not match the mounting
hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as a backing pad for cracks, tears
or excess wear. If the power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged acces-
sory. After inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the
rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will
normally break apart during this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use a face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear a dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of
stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from the work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal
protective equipment (PPE). Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
k) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged, and your
hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
l) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory may
grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.
m)Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive
accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution
or shock.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
DRYWALL SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory.
Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory, which, in turn, causes the uncontrolled power tool
to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into
the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material, causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may ei-
ther jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching.
Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces.
Always use the auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during
start-up. The operator can control torque reactions or kick back forces if proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where the power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel
the tool in the direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Cor-
ners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and
loss of control.
Safety warnings specific for sanding operations
a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations when selecting
sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may
cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.
Unplug the sander before changing accessories. Accidental start-ups may occur if the sander is plugged in while
changing an accessory.
Disposing of dust. Be extremely careful of dust disposal, materials in fine particle form may be explosive. Do not throw
sanding dust on an open fire. Spontaneous combustion may, in time, result from a mixture of oil or water with dust
particles.
WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities,
contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints;
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products, and;
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated timber.
The risk from such exposures vary depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
DRYWALL SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power
tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. SERVICE
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock, a residual current device rated at 30mA or
less must be used.
1. Select the desired speed using the variable speed
control and then hold the drywall sander securely.
2. Place the sanding surface area flat onto the working

3. Move the sander smoothly with gentle pressure in circular
or transverse movements.
4. Once the job is complete, stop the sander and wait for
the disc to completely stop before sitting the tool down.
Sand paper selection
Selecting the correct grit of sandpaper is an important step in achieving optimum results.
Coarse grit will remove the most material. Finer grit will produce a smoother finish. The
higher the grit number, the finer the grade of sandpaper.
If the surface is rough, start with a coarse grit and sand until the surface is uniform. Medium
grit may then be used to remove scratches left by the coarser grit. Finer grit is then used to
finish the surface. Always continue sanding with each grade of sandpaper until the surface is
uniform.
Note: If intermediate sanding is required, choose a grit rating between coarse and fine. To
ensure a satisfactory result, a small, inconspicuous area should first be tested to ensure the
grit of sandpaper chosen is suitable for the desired finish.
Sanding tips
Never force the sander. Applying excessive pressure will slow the motor, rapidly wear the
sandpaper, and greatly reduce the sander speed. This will slow the removal rate and produce
an inferior quality surface.
CAUTION: Excessive pressure will overload the motor, causing possible damage to the
sander by overheating the motor, or damage to the working surface.
Be sure to check your working surface often. The sander is capable of removing material
rapidly, especially with coarse paper. Do not sand on one spot for too long. The sander’s
rapid action may remove too much material, creating an uneven surface.

KNOW YOUR PRODUCT
MAINTENANCE
• Keep the ventilation vents of the drywall sander clean at all times.
• After each use, blow air through the drywall sander housing to ensure it is free from
all dust particles that may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the sander to
overheat and fail.
• If the enclosure of the drywall sander requires cleaning, do not use solvents but a
moist, soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part
of the sander into a liquid.
Carbon brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out, the drywall sander will spark
and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this happens. They should
be replaced prior to recommencing use of the sander. Carbon
brushes are a wearing component of the drywall sander and,
therefore, not covered under warranty. Continuing to use the tool
when carbon brushes need to be replaced may cause permanent
damage to the sander. Carbon brushes will wear out after many
uses but when the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take the drywall sander to an
electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost replacement. Always replace
both carbon brushes at the same time.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by the
repair of the drywall sander by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the sander.
