SAFETY WARNINGS
SYMBOLS
In this manual and/or on the machine the following symbols are used:
Risk of electric shock. This tool is not provided with an insulated gripping surface.
Contact with a live wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool live and shock
the operator.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock.
Examine the work piece to avoid contact with hidden wiring. Thoroughly investigate the
work piece for possible hidden wiring before performing work. Contact with live wiring will
shock the operator.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the work piece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against the body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control.
Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for the job. The correct tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which the tool is designed.
Do not use the tool if the switch does not operate. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool unintentionally. Turn off and detach the air supply, safely discharge any
residual air pressure, and release the trigger before leaving the work area.
Store the tool out of the reach of children and other untrained persons. This tool is
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain the tool with care. Keep a cutting tool sharp and clean. A properly maintained
tool, with sharp cutting edges reduces the risk of binding and is easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, and any other condition that affects
the tool s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools. There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.
Use only accessories that are identified by the manufacturer for the specific tool s
model. Use of an accessory not intended for use with the specific tool model, increases
the risk of injury to persons.
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Use only authorized parts.
Use only the lubricants supplied with the tool or specified by the manufacturer.
Never connect to an air source that is capable of exceeding 200 PSI. Over pressurizing
the tool may cause bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the tool, or serious injury.
Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at the rated pressure or within the rated
pressure range as marked on the tool. Always verify prior to using the tool that the air
source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or within the rated air-pressure range.
Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases, or any bottled gas as an air
source for the tool. Such gases are capable of explosion and serious injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The warnings and precautions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that
common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must
be supplied by the operator.
Only use accessories rated to handle the forces exerted by this tool during operation.
Other accessories not designed for the forces generated may break and forcefully launch
pieces.
Attach all accessories properly to the tool before connecting the air supply. A loose
accessory may detach or break during operation.
Obey the manual for the air compressor used to power this tool.
Install an in-line shutoff valve to allow immediate control over the air supply in an
emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.
Use this tool with both hands only. Using tools with only one hand can result in loss of
control.
Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause
temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms, and shoulders. To
reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period of time should first be
examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure medical
problems are not being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who
have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders,

5
diabetes, or Raynaud s Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any symptoms related
to vibration (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical advice
as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowers vibration when there is a choice.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
6. Grip the tool as lightly as possible (while still maintaining a secure hold). Let the tool do
the work.
7. To reduce vibration, maintain tool as explained in this manual. If abnormal vibration
occurs, stop immediately.

INITIAL SETUP & ASSEMBLY
Air Supply
WARNING: To prevent serious injury from explosion, use only clean, dry, regulated,
compressed air to power this tool. Do not use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases,
or any other bottled gas as a power source for this tool.
1. Incorporate a filter, regulator with pressure gauge, oiler, in-line shutoff valve, and quick
coupler for best service. Refer to the diagram at the end of this manual for more
information. An in-line shut-off ball valve is an important safety device because it controls the
air supply even if the air hose is ruptured. The shut-off valve should be
a ball valve because it can be closed quickly.
Note: if an automatic oiler system is not used, add a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the
airline connection before operation. Add a few more drops after each hour of continual use.
2. Attach an air hose to the compressor s air outlet. Connect the air hose to the air inlet of
the tool. Other components, such as a coupler plug and quick coupler, will make
operation more efficient, but are not required.
WARNING: To prevent serious injury from accidental operation, do not install a female
quick coupler on the tool. Such a coupler contains an air valve that will allow the air tool to
retain pressure and operate accidentally after the air supply is disconnected.
Note: Air flow, and therefore tool performance, can be hindered by undersized air supply
components. The air hose must be long enough to reach the work area with enough extra
length to allow free movement while working.
3. Release the tool s trigger.

6
4. Close the in-line shut-off valve between the compressor and the tool.
5. Turn on the air compressor according to the manufacturer s directions and allow it to
build up pressure until it cycles off.
6. Adjust the air compressor s output regulator so that the air output is enough to properly
power the tool, but the output will not exceed the tool s maximum air pressure at any time.
Adjust the pressure gradually, while checking the air output gauge to set the right pressure
range.
7. Inspect the air connections for leaks. Repair any leaks found.
8. If the tool will not be used at this time, turn off and detach the air supply, safely
discharge any residual air pressure, and release the trigger to prevent accidental
operation.
Note: Residual air pressure should not be present after the tool is disconnected from the
air supply. However, it is a good safety measure to attempt to discharge the tool in a safe
fashion after disconnecting to ensure that the tool is disconnected and not powered.
WARNING: Read the ENTIRE important operating instructions before set-up or use of this
product.Inspect tool before use, looking for damaged, loose, and missing parts. If any problems
are found, do not use the tool until it has been repaired.

WORK AREA SET-UP
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit. The work area must not allow access
by children or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2. Route the air hose along a safe route to reach the work area without creating a tripping
hazard or exposing the air hose to possible damage. The air hose must be long enough
to reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement
while working.
4. There must not be hazardous objects (such as utility lines or foreign objects) nearby
that will present a hazard while working.
General Operating Instructions
1. If an automatic oiler is not used, add a few drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline
connection before use. Add a few drops more after each hour of continual use.
2. Squeeze the Trigger and allow the tool to come up to full speed.
3. The tool’s speed can be adjusted by turning the Air Regulator.

8
4. Apply the sandpaper disc to the workpiece lightly and at a slight angle to prevent the Arbor
Nut from gouging the workpiece. Keep the disc moving cross the surface for best results.
5. If the tool requires more force to accomplish the task, verify that the tool receives sufficient,
unobstructed airflow (CFM) and increase the pressure (PSI) output of the regulator up to the
maximum air pressure rating of this tool.
CAUTION! TO PREVENT INJURY FROM TOOL OR ACCESSORY FAILURE: Do not exceed
the tool’s maximum air pressure rating. If the tool still does not have sufficient force at
maximum pressure and sufficient airflow, then a larger tool may be required.
6. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool, detach the air supply, safely discharge any residual air
pressure in the tool, and release the trigger after use. Clean external surfaces of the tool with
clean, dry cloth, and apply a thin coat of tool oil. Then store the tool indoors out of children’s
reach.
