MAINTENANCE
DOUBLE INSULATION is a safety concept in electric
power tools, which eiiminates the need for the usuai
three wire grounded power cord and grounded supply
system. Wherever there is electric current in the tool
there are two complete sets of insulation to protect the
user. All exposed metal parts are isolated from internal
metal motor components with protecting insulation
IMPORTANT — Servicing of a tool with double
insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the
system and should be performed only by a qualified
service tecnhician. For service we suggest you return
the tool to your nearest Sears Store for repair. Always
use original factory replacement parts when servicing,
A WARNING: When servicing use only identical
Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other
parts may create a hazard or cause product
damage.
GENERAL
Only the parts shown on parts list, page 13, are
intended to be repaired or replaced by the customer.
All other parts represent an important part of the
double insulation system and should be serviced only
by a qualified Sears service technician.
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial
solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean
cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids,
gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating
oils, etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They
contain chemicals that can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic.
When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats,
sports cars, wallboard, spackling compounds, or
plaster, it has been found that they are subject to
accelerated wear and possible premature failure, as
the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrash/e
to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc.
Conseqi№ntly it is not recommended that this tool be
used for extended work on any fiberglass material,
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During
any use on these materials, it is extremely important
that the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an
air jet.
WARNING: Always wear safety goggles, or
safety glasses with side shields during power
tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation
is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep the bss to a minimum and to prevent
tool overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy
enough to carry the current the tool will draw.
A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is
recommended for an extension cord 100 feet or less in
length. When working outdoors, use an extension cord
that is suitable for outdoor use. The cord's jacket will
be marked WA,
CAUTION: Keep extension cords away from
the sanding area and position the cord so that it
will not get caught on lumber, tools, etc., during
sanding or polishing operation.
iX WARNING: Check extension cords before
each use. If damaged replace immediately.
Never use tool with a damaged cord since
touching the damaged area could cause
electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a
sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of
the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore,
no further lubrication is required.
