INSTRUCTIONS & PARTS LIST FOR
SIOUX 8200 POLISHER
Printed In U.S.A.
GENERAL SAFTEY RULES
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow all instructions listed be-
low, may result in electric shock, re and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WORK AREA
1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
 2. Donotoperatepowertoolsinexplosiveatmospheres,suchasinthepresenceofammable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 lose
control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
 1. Doubleinsulatedtoolsareequippedwithapolarizedplug(onebladeiswiderthantheother).Thisplugwillt
inapolarizedoutletonlyoneway.Iftheplugdoesnottfullyintheoutlet,reversetheplug.Ifitstilldoesnot
t,contactaqualiedelectriciantoinstallapolarizedoutlet.Donotchangethepluginanyway. Double Insu-
lated 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 electric 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 electric
shock.
 4. Donotabusethecord.Neverusethecordtocarrythetoolsorpulltheplugfromanoutlet. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
5. 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 electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool
whiletiredorundertheinuenceofdrugs,alcohol,ormedication.A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
 3. Avoidaccidentalstarting.BesureswitchisOFFbeforepluggingin. Carrying tools with your nger on the switch or
plugging in tools that have the switch ON invites accidents.
 4. RemoveadjustingkeysorwrenchesbeforeturningthetoolON. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating
part of the tool may result in personal injury.
 5. Donotoverreach.Keepproperfootingandbalanceatalltimes.Proper tooling and balance enable better control of
the tool in unexpected situations.
 6. Usesafetyequipment.Alwaysweareyeprotection. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protec-
tion must be used for appropriate conditions.

TOOLS USE AND CARE
 1. Useclampsorotherpracticalwaytosecureandsupporttheworkpiecetoastableplatform. Holding the work by
hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it is designed.
3. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it ON or OFF. A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
 4. Disconnecttheplugfromthepowersourcebeforemakinganyadjustments,changingaccessories,orstoring
the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of un-
trained users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
 7. Checkformisalignmentorbindingofmovingparts,breakageofparts,andanyotherconditionthatmayaffect
the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained tools.
 8. Useonlyaccessoriesthatarerecommendedbythemanufacturerforyourmodel. Accessories that may be suit-
able for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.
SERVICE
 1. Toolservicemustbeperformedonlybyqualiedrepairpersonnel.Service or maintenance performed by unquali-
ed personnel may result in a risk of injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance Section of
this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock
or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR POLISHERS.
Accessoriesmustberatedforatleastthespeedrecommendedonthetoolwarninglabel.Wheels and other accesso-
ries running over rated speed can y apart and cause injury.
Hold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.
Wear safety goggles.
Wear hearing protection.
Do not use this tool as a grinder. This tool is not guarded for use as a grinder and serious injury can result if used as a
grinder.
Avoidprolongedexposuretovibration. Prolonged exposure to vibration can cause injury. (leave out?)

EXTENSION CORD SELECTION
If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause
loss of power and possible motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found in this section. This
table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts for 230 volts) at 150 % of rated amperes.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the sufx W-A following the cord type designation. For
example-SJTW-A to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
OPERATION
Spindle Lock.
UnplugthetoolandmakesurethespindlehascometoaCOMPLETEstopbeforeengagingthespindlelock.
Lock the spindle by pressing the button on top of the gear case and turning the spindle until the lock engages.
Switch.
The tool is actuated by pressing the top lock button on the handle while squeezing the bottom switch lever at the
same time. The bottom switch lever can then be released and the tool will remain running.
To shut the tool off, squeeze and release the bottom switch lever.
Speed Control.
The speed control dial is located on the left side of the tool. This dial is used to set the speed of the polisher to match
the conditions of the job.
