Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend
that a specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user/employer will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical. Whilst in use, the actual value will vary
considerably from and depend on many factors Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration. The state of
maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
Syndrome.
1.8. HEALTH SURVEILLANCE
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can
be modified accordingly.

could result in accidental starting of the sander resulting in possible serious injury.
4.2.1. The lock-on feature allows you to lock the switch trigger in the ON position, allowing you to operate the sander for extended periods
of time.
4.2.2. If you have the lock-on feature engaged during use and the battery pack is removed, disengage the lock-on feature immediately.

4.3.2. To remove, depress the latch in the centre of the battery pack and pull upwards.
4.4. SELECTING SANDING BELTS
4.4.1. Selecting the correct size and type of sanding belt is an important step in achieving a high-quality sanded nish.
4.4.2. Aluminium oxide, silicon carbide, and other synthetic abrasives are best for power sanding.
4.4.3. In general, when sanding, coarse grit removes the most material and ne grit produces the best nish.
4.4.4. The condition of the surface to be sanded determines which grit will do the best job.
4.4.5. If the surface is rough, start with a coarse grit and sand until the surface is uniform. Then use medium grit to remove scratches left by
the coarser grit. Finally, use ner grit for nishing the surface.
9 Always continue sanding with each grit until the surface is uniform.
4.5. TO INSTALL/CHANGE SANDING BELTS
WARNING! Remove the battery pack. Keep hands and ngers clear of both rollers and spring mechanism at all times. Failure to do so
