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 secure position having a firm
grip and footing and be aware of the safety rules to be obeyed
when using the sander.
Foreseen Use of the Tool
The tool is designed for the purpose of cleaning or sanding of
materials using a continuous abrasive belt. Belts are available in
various grades to suit fine finishing or fast material removal.
Do not use the tool for any other purpose than that for which it
was designed. Do not modify this tool for any other use or for
its use as a belt sander without first consulting the manufacturer
or the manufacturer’s 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 recom-
mended hose size and length. It is
recommended that the tool is con-
nected to the air supply as shown in
figure 1. Do not connect the tool to
the air line system without incorpo-

rating 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, depressuris-
ing 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 incorporating
a rust inhibitor. Reconnect tool to air supply and run tool slowly
for a few seconds to allow air to circulate the oil. If tool is used
frequently lubricate on daily basis and if tool starts to slow or
lose power.
It is recommended that the air pressure at the tool whilst the
tool is running is 90 p.s.i./6.3 bar. The tool can run at lower and
higher pressures with the maximum permitted working air
pressure of 100 p.s.i./7 bar.
