FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

- Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

Switch action

CAUTION:

- Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.

For UB1102 (Fig. 1)

To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.

For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger, push in the lock button and then release the switch trigger. Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of operator comfort during extended use. Apply caution when locking tool in "ON" position and maintain firm grasp on tool.

To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it.

For UB1103 (Fig. 2)

To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of operator comfort during extended use. Apply caution when locking tool in "ON" position and maintain firm grasp on tool.

For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger, push in the lock button and then release the switch trigger.

To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it.

A speed control screw is provided so that maximum tool speed can be limited (variable). Turn the speed control screw clockwise for higher speed, and counterclockwise for lower speed.

OPERATION

CAUTION:

• Always hold the tool only by the handle when performing an operation. Do not touch the metal part.
- Do not use the tool for blowing air into objects, like rubber rafting, balls or other inflatable products. Increased motor revolution may cause dangerous fan breakage. (Fig. 3)

Blowing (Fig. 4)

For dust blowing, attach nozzle to blower outlet. Turn it clockwise until it clicks.

Dust suction (optional accessory) (Fig. 5 & 6)

For dust suction, fit nozzle onto suction inlet and dust bag onto blower outlet. Turn them clockwise until it clicks. After the bag fills with dust, empty the contents of the dust bag into a dust bin by releasing the fastener.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
- Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.

Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 7 & 8)

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes.

Noise

The typical A-weighted noise level determined according to EN62841-1:

Sound pressure level ( L_nA ): 86 dB (A)

Sound power level (L _WA ): 94 dB (A)

Uncertainty (K): 3 dB (A)

ENG907-1

NOTE:

• The declared noise emission value(s) has been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared noise emission value(s) may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING:

- Wear ear protection.

- The noise emission during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value(s) depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed.

- Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

ENG900-1

Vibration

The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined according to EN62841-1:

Work mode: operation without load

Vibration emission ( a_h ): 2.5 m/s ²

Uncertainty (K): 1.5 m/s²

ENG901-2

NOTE:

- The declared vibration total value(s) has been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another.

- The declared vibration total value(s) may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
