WARNING: Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
 electrical shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed
below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
    SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
1.Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents
2.Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presences 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. Distractions can
cause you to loose control.
Electrical Safety
1.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. Unmodfied plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electrical shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
3.Do not expose power tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electrical shock.
4.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 entaqngled
cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
5.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 electrical shock.
Personal Safety
1.Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power 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.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions to
reduce personal injuries.
3.Avoid accidental starting. Ensure switch is in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
4.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.
5.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
6.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7.If devices are provided for connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-
related hazards.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES

Power Tool Use And Care
1.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 is designed.
2.Do not use power tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3.Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
4.Store idle power tools out of reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Tools are dangerous in the hands
5.Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
6.Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7.Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions
and in a manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations

Basic Operation
WARNING:
• Always work in a well-ventilated area. Sanding can produce fine dust that can ignite if
exposed to open flame or sparks.
• Risk of electrical shock - do not use tool for wet sanding or polishing with liquids. Do not
expose the tool to rain or water. Do not use in damp locations.
• Always wear eye protection and respirator when sanding.
CAUTION:
• Remove all nails, staples, fasteners, foreign objects or other debris before sanding. Never
sand over these objects.
• Do not operate sander without dust collector.
• Never use the sander without sandpaper or damage to the base could result.
1. Grasp the tool firmly with, both hand, by the grips.
2. Start the tool and allow it to reach full speed.
NOTE: Always start and stop the sander before contacting the workpiece.
3. Lower the sander onto the workpiece surface. Allow the weight of the tool apply friction
between the sandpaper and workpiece. In most cases additional pressure will not be required
4. Move the sander evenly over the work surface maintaining constant motion. Prolong
operation in one location can cause uneven surfaces. Check your progress often as sander
is capable of rapid material removal.
5. For best results, choose the correct sandpaper and grit for the job. Progress from course to a
finer grit of sandpaper to achieve the finish desired. Change sandpaper frequently. Work in a
strait line with the wood grain whenever possible.
Grit Selection and Common Uses Guide:
Course Grit- For rapid material removal, shaping or forming
Medium Grit- For general purpose sanding
Fine Grit- For smoother sanding and scratch removal
Extra Fine Grit- For extra smooth finish and fine scratch removal
Sandpaper Cutting Guide:
Replacement 3.6” x 9” sandpaper sheets
can be made from commercially available
full size 9” x 11” sheets. (SEE FIGURE 6)
Cut each sheet into 3 equal pieces
(1/3 sheet.)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 6
1.Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live"wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Electrical Safety
1. Double Insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.)
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
2.Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
3. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electrical shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from the outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
Extension Cords
1. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate Ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
2. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electrical shock.
3. Use only UL listed extension cords. Inspect extension cord before use and never use damaged
or altered extension cords. Follow extension cord manufacturer safety instruction.
4. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.

Sanding operations are inherently dusty. It is recommended that users employ a dust-collection
system when using this sander . To help minimize the amount of dust that escapes into the
surrounding air, this sander is equipped a 1-1/4" dust evacuation chute that can be connected to
a shop vacuum or dust-collection system. Use of a mask or respirator is still recommended even
when a dust-collection system is in use.
1.(See Figure 4) Place a 1-1/4 diameter vacuum/dust-collection hose into the dust chute (1).
2.To remove the dust chute: grasp the dust chute near the tool base (2) and twist left  
(counterclockwise) to release locking tabs. Pull chute from the sander base to remove.
3.Reverse procedure for chute installation.
NOTE: The holes in the sandpaper must be aligned with the holes in the sander base for the dust
collection system to work.
