Work Stations

The tool should only be used as a
hand held hand operated tool. It
is always recommended that the
tool is used when standing on a
solid floor. It can be used in other
positions but before any such
use the operator must be in a se-
cure position having a firm grip
and footing and be aware of the
safety rules to be obeyed when
using the sander.

Foreseen Use of Tool

This tool is designed for the purpose of cleaning or sanding of a variety
of materials typically metal, wood, plastic materials, etc. The dual rotary
orbital action reduces the amount of abrasive grinding marks and
hence is primarily a finishing sanding tool. It can be used with a variety of
grades of 150 mm (6” diameter) abrasive discs which, according to
pad fitted to the tool, can be self adhesive or Velcro attached. If fitted to
the dust collecting system this should always be used. The system may
be integral or required to be fixed to an external vacuum source.
The machine fitted with dust collection should not be used with water.
If use with water is required, water can act as a dust suppressor and the
dust collector would not be required.
Do not use the tool for any other purpose to that for which it has been
designed and use only abrasive discs as described.
Do not modify the tool for any other use or for its use as a sander without
first consulting the manufacturer or his authorised distributor.

Putting Into Service
Air Supply

Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give a measured air pressure
at the tool of 90 p.s.i./6.3 bar when the tool is running with the
trigger/lever fully depressed. Use recommended hose size and length.
It is recommended that the tool is connected to the air supply as shown
in figure 1. Do not connect the tool to the air line system without
incorporating an easy to reach and operate air shut off valve. The air
supply should be lubricated. It is strongly recommended that an air filter,
regulator, lubricator (FRL) is used as shown in Figure 1 as this will supply
clean, lubricated air at the correct pressure to the tool. Details of such
equipment can be obtained from your supplier. If such equipment is not
used then the tool should be lubricated by shutting off the air supply to
the tool, depressurising the line by pressing the trigger on the tool.
Disconnect the air line and pour into the intake bushing a teaspoonful
(5ml) of a suitable pneumatic motor lubricating oil preferably
