Frequently Asked Questions - SPR-7100 Ozito

How do I change the sandpaper on the Ozito SPR-7100?

The sandpad uses a hook-and-loop (Velcro) system. Simply peel off the old sandpaper and press the new one onto the pad, aligning the holes for dust extraction.

Can I use the SPR-7100 for polishing or waxing?

Yes, with appropriate polishing pads and compounds. However, the sander is designed primarily for sanding; use low speeds and gentle pressure to avoid damage.

How do I connect a vacuum cleaner for dust extraction?

The sander has a dust port that accepts a standard 35 mm vacuum adapter. Attach your vacuum hose directly or use the included dust bag as a primary collection.

What type of sandpaper should I use?

Use 125 mm (5 in) hook-and-loop sanding discs with dust extraction holes. For best results, choose grits ranging from coarse (40-80) to fine (180-240).

Is the speed variable on the SPR-7100?

The SPR-7100 has a fixed speed of 12,000 opm. It is not variable, but this speed is suitable for most sanding tasks.

Why does my sander vibrate excessively?

Excessive vibration may indicate worn sandpaper, unbalanced pad, or debris inside. Check and replace sandpaper, clean the pad, and ensure the pad is properly seated.

How do I replace the carbon brushes?

Remove the brush caps on the motor housing (usually two screws). Take out the old brushes and insert new ones. Ensure they make good contact. Reassemble caps. This restores motor performance.

Can I use the sander on metal surfaces?

Yes, but use appropriate sandpaper for metal (e.g., aluminum oxide). Avoid excessive pressure to prevent overheating. Collect dust to avoid inhalation.

What is the weight of the Ozito SPR-7100?

The sander weighs approximately 1.2 kg, making it lightweight and easy to handle for extended use.

How do I clean and maintain the sander?

Unplug the sander. Clean dust ports with a brush or compressed air. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Check and replace the sanding pad if worn. Store in a dry place.

MAINTENANCE

• Keep the vents of the sander clean at all times. If possible, prevent foreign matter from entering the vents.
• After each use, blow air through the sander housing to ensure it is free from all dust particles which may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the sander to overheat and fail.
• If the enclosure of the sander requires cleaning, do not use solvents but a moist soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get inside the sander; never immerse any part of the sander into a liquid.

Carbon Brushes

When the carbon brushes wear out, the sander polisher will spark and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this happens. They should be replaced prior to recommencing use of the sander polisher. Carbon brushes are a wearing component of the sander and are therefore not covered under warranty. Continuing to use the sander when carbon brushes need to be replaced may cause permanent damage

to the sander. Carbon brushes will wear out after many uses. When the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take the sander polisher to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost replacement. Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.

Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by the repair of the sander polisher by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the sander.

CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

Power tools that are no longer usable should not be disposed of with household waste but in an environmentally friendly way. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local council authority for recycling advice.

Recycling packaging reduces the need for landfill and raw materials. Reuse of recycled material decreases pollution in the environment. Please recycle packaging where facilities exist. Check with your local council authority for recycling advice.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Sparking visible through the housing air vents

A small amount of sparking may be visible through the housing vents. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

Excessive sparking visible through the housing air vents and/or the drill failing to operate

May indicate the carbon brushes have worn out and need to be replaced. Carbon brushes should only be replaced by a qualified electrician or power tool repairer.

Sandpaper Selection

Selecting the correct grit of sandpaper is an important step in achieving optimum results. Coarse grit will remove the most material. Finer grit will produce a smoother finish. The condition of the workpiece will determine the grit of the sandpaper to be used. The higher the grit number, the finer the grade of sandpaper.

If the surface is rough, start with a coarse grit and sand until the surface is uniform. Medium grit may then be used to remove scratches left by the coarser grit. Finer grit is then used to finish the surface. Always continue sanding with each grade of sandpaper until the surface is uniform.

MATERIAL APPROPRIATE GRIT

	Coarse Sanding Fine Sanding
Paintwork 180 400
Wood: Softwood 60 240
Hardwood	60 180
Veneer	240 320

Note: If intermediate sanding is required, choose a grit rating between coarse and fine. The above table is intended as a guide only. To ensure a satisfactory result, a small, inconspicuous area should first be tested to ensure the grit of sandpaper chosen is suitable for the desired finish.

Operation Tips

Never force the sander polisher. The weight of the unit supplies adequate pressure, allowing the discs to do the work. Applying additional pressure will slow the motor, rapidly wear the discs, and greatly reduce the rotational speed. This will slow the removal rate and produce an inferior quality surface.

CAUTION: Excessive pressure will overload the motor, causing possible damage to the sander polisher by overheating the motor; or damage to the workpiece.

Be sure to check your workpiece often. The sander polisher is capable of removing material rapidly.

Do not sand or polish on one spot for too long. The sander's rapid action may remove too much material, creating an uneven surface.

a) This power tool is intended to function as a sander or polisher. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

b) Operations such as grinding, wire brushing or cutting-off are not recommended to be performed with this power tool. Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create a hazard and cause personal injury.

c) Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.

d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart.

e) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately guarded or controlled.

f) Threaded mounting of accessories must match the spindle thread. Accessories that do not match the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.

g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as a backing pad for cracks, tears or excess wear. If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart during this test time.

h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or work piece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of work piece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.

k) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.

I) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.

m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.

n) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The motor's fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.

o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.

p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

Kickback and Related Warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory's rotation at the point of the binding.

For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the work piece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel's movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions.

Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.

b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand. c) Do not position your body in the area where power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kick- back will propel the tool in direction opposite to the wheel's movement at the point of snagging.

d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.

e) Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.

Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding Operations

a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper. Follow manufacturers recommendations, when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.

Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations

a) Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing bonnet or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck away or trim any loose attachment strings. Loose and spinning attachment strings can entangle your fingers or snag the work piece.
