Assembly; Operation - Porter-Cable 7800 Instruction Manual

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
1. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily
for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed
frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust
chips or other removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles
and disposed of through regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean up,
children and pregnant women should be kept away from the immediate work
area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed
thoroughly before being used again.
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended
on the tool warning label. Accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and
cause injury. Accessory ratings must always be above tool speed as shown on tool
nameplate.

MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC means your
tool will operate on alternating current. As little as 10% lower voltage can cause loss
of power and can result in overheating. All PORTER-CABLE tools are factory-tested; if
this tool does not operate, check the power supply.
NOTE: This tool is shipped completely assembled. No assembly time or tools are
required.
ABRASIVE DISC SELECTION
An abrasive disc is already included with the Drywall Sander. For details on the type
of grit, refer to the packaging. Higher grit number corresponds to a smoother finish.
Do not attempt to use any abrasives other than those recommended
by PORTER-CABLE.
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or
when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
HOW TO HOLD A DRYWALL SANDER (FIG. 1)
Hold the sander with both hands on the main
tube (A). Position your hands anywhere along the
main tube to provide the best combination of
reach and leverage.
To reduce the risk of
personal injury, keep your hands on the
main tube (A). Keep away from the sanding
head area. The sanding head swivels in
multiple directions and can pinch your hand.
