2. Connect the vacuum hose to the Drywall Sander. Open the hose connector
by turning the large nut (A) Fig. 2 counterclockwise a few turns. Push the
vacuum hose swivel connector (B) Fig. 2 into the connector and seat firmly.
Turn the large nut clockwise to tighten the connector.
3. Connect the vacuum hose to your vacuum cleaner. Use the 1-1/4" (3.2 cm)
to 2-1/2" (6.4 cm) adapter if necessary. If your vacuum cleaner requires a
special connector (something other than the standard 1-1/4" (3.2 cm) to
2-1/2" (6.4 cm) connectors supplied with the Drywall Sander), contact your
vacuum cleaner supplier for the proper adapter.
TO START AND STOP THE DRYWALL
SANDER
Be certain that the power circuit voltage is
the same as that shown on the specification
plate of the tool, and that the switch is OFF
(O). Connect the tool to the power circuit.
The Drywall Sander is equipped with a
“rocker” type switch (A) Fig. 4. The top
end of the switch button is labeled "O"
(OFF), and the bottom end of the button is
labeled "I" (ON). To start the sander, press
the bottom end of the "I" switch. To stop
the sander, press the top end of the "O"
switch.
INSTALLATION
1. Install the special drywall dust bag into your vacuum cleaner, following the
instructions supplied with the vacuum cleaner. If this dust bag does not fit
your vacuum cleaner correctly, purchase and install a suitable filter bag that
is rated for drywall dust.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, use a dust bag rated for
drywall dust. Failure to do so will increase the level of airborne dust particles
in the work area. Continued and prolonged exposure to high concentrations
of airborne dust may affect your respiratory system function.
