3. Switching on the sander

The switch is of the quick-break trigger system.

When the trigger is pulled, the switch turns on; and

when it is released, the switch turns off.

When it is desired to keep the power on for a

prolonged period in continuous use, the stopper

can be used to keep the switch on even after the

trigger has been released. (First pull the trigger, and

then press the stopper.) To turn the switch off, first

pull the trigger again to disengage the stopper.

4. Precaution after use

Do not lay the sander down immediately after using

on a place where there are many shavings, much

dirt and dust until it has completely stopped

revolving.

CAUTION

When the disc sander is not in use, the power

source should be disconnected.

ATTACHMENT/REMOVAL OF SANDING DISC

(Fig. 2)

CAUTION: Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect

the attachment plug from the receptacle to

avoid a serious accident.

(1) Attach washer, rubber pad and sanding disc on the

spindle, in that order.

(2) While pushing the lock lever with one hand, lock

the spindle by turning the rubber pad slowly with

the other hand.

Tighten the wheel washer by using the supplied

wrench.

⅜ Remove the sanding disc in the reverse order to

attachment.

CAUTION:

Confirm that the lock lever is disengaged by pushing

lock lever two or three times before switching the

disc sander on.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the mounting screws:

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure

that they are properly tightened. Should any of the

screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure

to do so could result in serious hazard.

2. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the

power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding

does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or

water.

3. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 4)

The motor employs carbon brushes which are

consumable parts. Since an excessively worn carbon

brush can result in motor trouble, replace the carbon

brushes with new ones which have the same carbon

brush No. shown in the figure when they become

worn to or near the “wear limit”. In addition, always

keep carbon brushes clean and ensure that they

slide freely within the brush holders.

4. Replacing carbon brushes:

Disassemble the brush caps with a slotted-head

screwdriver. The carbon brushes can then be easily

removed.
