Before Use; Connecting The Air Supply - Clarke X-PRO CAT 160 Operating & Maintenance Instructions

BEFORE USE

WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU
ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF AIR
COMPRESSORS AND A COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
FITTING A SANDING DISC
1. Select the disc to be used which
MUST be 150mm diameter with
hook and loop backing.
2. Line up the holes in the disc with
those on the sanding pad. (This is
necessary for dust extraction
purposes). Press the disc firmly onto
the pad to secure it.

CONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY

Ensure the compressor is turned off and that the trigger is NOT depressed when
connecting the air line to avoid inadvertent starting of the sander.
1. Remove the protective plug from
the air inlet and connect a suitable
hose with a male end fitting or use
the adaptor supplied to connect a
suitable hose.
2. Connect the other end of the hose
to the compressed air supply.
3. Turn on the air supply and check
for air leaks. Rectify any found
before proceeding.
• PTFE tape may be useful for sealing threaded connections.
4. If required, connect an in-line mini oiler to the tool. A mini oiler helps to
prolong the life of the air tool.
5. If a mini-oiler is not being used, run a few drops of oil through the tool
before use. It can be entered through the air inlet or via the hose at the
nearest connection to the air supply.
6. A gauze filter is fitted within the air inlet. Ensure this filter is always kept
clean. An airline can be connected to the adapter, via a quick release
coupling (not supplied).
