VIBRATION INFORMATION

Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN 60745:
Typical weighted vibration	Vibration emission value ah=9.2m/s2
	Uncertainty K=1.5m/s2

WARNING: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ

from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the

following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:

How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.

The tool being in good condition and well maintained.

The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.

The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration accessories are used.

And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use

should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool

is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly

reduce the exposure level over the total working period.

Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk.

ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades.

Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate).

If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories.

Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10^ or less.

Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

This product has been marked with a symbol relating to removing electric and electronic waste. This means that this product shall not be discarded with household waste but that it shall be returned to a collection system which conforms to the European Directive 2002/96/CE. It will then be recycled or dismantled in order to reduce the impact on the environment. Electric and electronic equipment can be hazardous for the environment and for human health since they contain hazardous substances.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully.

INTENDED USE

The machine is intended for dry sanding-with high removal capacity-of wood, plastic, metal, filler as well as varnished surfaces.

1. ON/OFF SWITCH

Depress to start and release to stop your tool.

2. SWITCH LOCK-ON BUTTON (See Fig. A)

Depress on/off switch (2) then lock on button (3). Your tool is now locked on for continuous use. To switch off your tool just depress and release the on/off switch.

3. VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL DIAL

Adjust the variable speed control (1) to increase or decrease the speed according to the material and sanding belt specification to be used (also possible during no load operation). See the table below for general guidance on speed selection. Avoid prolonged use at very low speed as this may damage your sander's motor.

Material Speed selection Belt		Grit
Solid Wood 5-6 80
Veneer 2-4 150
Chipboard 1-5 60/80
Plastics 2-5 100
Steel	5-6 80
Paint Removal	6 40/60
Balsa Wood	1-3	100
Acrylic	1-2	100

4. CHANGING A SANDING BELT (See Fig.B,C) !WARNING! Remove the main plug from the socket before changing sanding belt.

Pull the lever (7) to release the belt tension. Remove and fit a new belt over both rollers. Ensure the direction of rotation arrows on the belt and the sander are the same. Close the lever to tension the belt.

5. BELT CENTERING CONTROL (See Fig. D)

WARNING! Wear eye protection before carrying out a belt centering adjustment.

Turn the machine upside down, hold it firmly with one hand, start the motor and release the switch immediately after observing tracking of sanding belt. If abrasive belt runs outward, turn tracking adjustment knob counterclockwise and clockwise if belt runs inward. Adjust the belt until the outer edge of the belt is even with the outer edge of the base-plate (12). Belt life will be greatly increased by keeping the tracking adjustment set properly.

6. DUST BAG (See Fig. E)

You must use the dust collection bag provided to collect the dust produced during sanding. To attach, insert the dust collection bag into the dust extraction outlet. Make sure the dots of the outlet are locked in the slot of the dust bag. When the dust collection bag is full, remove and empty by opening the zip on the dust bag (5).

7. ASSEMBLE THE DUST EXTRACTION ADAPTER (See Fig. F,G)

Your sander is equipped with a dust extraction adapter, which is designed for letting you attach a wet/dry vac for collecting dust better. Insert the suitable size adapter into the outlet until it is secured.

Insert the 35mm adapter (13a) into the outlet until it is secured (See F), then insert the 32 mm adapter (13b) into the back of the 35 mm adapter (Fig. G).

8. DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT.

WARNING! Remove the main plug from the socket before carrying out a drive belt replacement.

Remove the three screws and the belt cover. Carefully cut the drive belt if not already broken and remove from your belt sander. Fit your new drive belt around the large pulley. Then install onto the small pulley by rotating clockwise and pushing the drive belt shown around the small pulley at the same time. The drive belt will be a tight fit. Fit the belt cover and two screws.

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR BELT SANDER

If your power tool becomes too hot, especially when used at low speed, set the speed to maximum and run with no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very low speed. Always use a sanding belt suited to the material you wish to sand. Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped to prevent movement. Support large panels close to the sanding area. Any movement of the material may affect the quality of the sanding finish. Start your sander before sanding and turn off only after stopping sanding. For best results sand wood in the direction of the grain. Do not start sanding without the sanding belt fitted. Empty the dust bag every 5 minutes or sooner to ensure efficient dust collection.

MAINTAINANCE

Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is normal. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
