(Original instructions)

u Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the

tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest

when the tool operates at high speed.

u Position yourself so that the openunderside of the wheel is

facing away from you.

u Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the

workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing

the angle will cause the wheel to bend and may cause

wheel breakage. Edge grinding wheels are not designed

to withstand side pressures caused by bending.

u Remove the tool from the work surface before turning the

tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it

down.

Warning! Do not use edge grinding/cutting wheels for surface

grinding applications if the wheel label has forbidden such use

because these wheels are not designed for side

pressures encountered with surface grinding. Wheel breakage

and serious personal injury may result.

Fitting and removing sanding discs (g. D & E)

For sanding, a backing pad is required. The backing pad is

available from your Stanley Fat Max dealer as an accessory.

Fitting

u Place the inner ange (9) onto the spindle (4) as shown

(g. E). Make sure that the ange is correctly located on

the at sides of the spindle.

u Place the backing pad (14) onto the spindle.

u Place the sanding disc (15) onto the backing pad.

u Place the outer ange (12) onto the spindle with the raised

centre facing away from the disc.

u Keep the spindle lock (2) depressed and tighten the outer

ange using the two-pin spanner (13) (g. D).

Make sure that the outer ange is tted correctly and that

the disc is clamped tightly.

Removing

u Keep the spindle lock (2) depressed and loosen the outer

ange (12) using the two-pin spanner (13) (g. D).

u Remove the outer ange (12), the sanding disc (15) and

the backing pad (14).

Surface nishing with sanding discs

u Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool

to the work surface.

u Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing the tool

to operate at high speed. Sanding rate is greatest when

the tool operates at high speed.

u Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between the tool and work

surface as shown in gure G.

u Continuously move the tool in a forward and back motion

to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.

u Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.

Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Using sanding backing pads

Always choose the proper grit sanding discs for your

application. Sanding discs are available in various grits.

Coarse grits yield faster material removal rates and a rougher

nish. Finer grits yield slower material removal and a

smoother nish. Begin with coarse grit discs for fast, rough

material removal. Move to a medium grit paper and nish with

a ne grit disc for optimal nish.

u Coarse = 16 - 30 grit.

u Medium = 36 - 80 grit.

u Fine Finishing = 100 - 120 grit.

u Very Fine Finishing = 150 - 180 grit.

u Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching tool to

the work surface.

u Apply minimum pressure to work surface, allowing the tool

to operate at high speed. Sanding rate is greatest

when the tool operates at high speed.

u Maintain a 5˚ to 10˚ angle between the tool and work

surface as shown in gure H. The sanding disc should

contact approximately 25mm of work surface.

u Move the tool constantly in a straight line to prevent

burning and swirling of work surface. Allowing the tool to

rest on the work surface without moving, or moving the

tool in a circular motion causes burning and swirling marks

on the work surface.

u Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.

Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

Precautions to take when sanding paint

u Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED

due to the difculty of controlling the contaminated dust.

The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and

pregnant women.

u Since it is difcult to identify whether or not a paint

contains lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend

the following precautions when sanding any paint:

u No children or pregnant women should enter the work

area where the paint sanding is being done until all

clean up is completed.

u A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons

entering the work area. The lter should be replaced

daily or whenever the wearer has difculty breathing.

Note: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead

paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting

masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware

dealer for the proper approved mask.
