1. Switching the sander ON and OFF

The power can be turned on by setting the lever

to ON (1) and turned off by setting the lever to OFF

(0).

CAUTION

Never turn the power switch ON when the sander

is contacting the surface to be sanded. This is

necessary to preclude damage to the material. The

same applies when switching the power OFF.

2. How to hold the orbital sander

While gripping the housing, lightly press the sander

against the surface to be sanded so that the sanding

paper uniformly contacts the surface, as shown in

Fig. 5. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the

sander while sanding. Excessive-pressure may cause

overload of the motor, reduced service life of the

sanding paper, and lowered sanding or polishing

efficiency.

3. How to move the orbital sander

For optimum operating efficiency, alternately move

the sander forward and backward at a constant

speed and balance.

4. After installing new sanding paper

Movement of the sander may tend to become

unsteady after new sanding paper has been installed,

because of the new, coarse grain of the paper. This

can be avoided by slightly tilting the sander forward

or backward during sanding or polishing. Sander

movement will become steady as the sanding paper

surface becomes properly abraded.

MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

1. Attaching a Sponge Pad (Velcro type) or a Stick-

on pad

Loosen the M4 × 10 screws (4) and remove the

attached pad. Next, attach a sponge pad (Velcro

type) or a stick-on pad.

CAUTION

Replace the pad only. Use the other parts without

removing them.

2. Attaching Velcro Type Sanding Paper or Stick-on

Type sanding Paper

Match the sanding paper’s hole with the pad’s hole

and strongly push the sanding paper with the palm

of your hand to fasten it securely in place.

3. When collecting dust with the Dust Collector (Model

WDE-1200)

By attaching the Dust Collector (Model WDE-1200),

it is possible to carry out clean sanding.

As shown in Fig. 6, attach the adapter, hose and

dust collector in order to the dust outlet.

4. Making a Hole in the Sanding Paper with the Punch

Plate (Fig. 7)

When using sanding paper without holes in it, punch

holes in it with the punch plate to improve dust

collecting capacity.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Empting and cleaning the Dust Bag

If the dust bag contains too much saw dust, dust

collection will be affected. Empty the dust bag when

it gets full.

Remove the dust bag, open the fastener, and dispose

of the contents.

2. Inspecting the sanding paper

Since use of worn-out sanding paper will degrade

efficiency and cause possible damage to the pad,

replace the sanding paper as soon a excessive

abrasion is noted.

3. 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.

4. Maintenance of the motor

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

power tool.

Exercise due care to ensure the sinding does not

become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

5. Servicing

Consult an authorized Service Agent in the event

of power tool failure.
