PERSONAL SAFETY
1. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is
being done until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work area. The filter
should be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing. See your local
hardware store for the proper N.I.O.S.H. approved dust mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to prevent
ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE
eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the
work area where dust would settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of dust gener-
ated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils
thickness.
3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work
area.
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.

TOOL CARE

Keep your machine as clean as possible by wiping with a clean cloth and blowing through it with air
after every 5 hours of use.
Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents to clean the tool. These chemicals could seriously damage
the plastic.
Avoid overloading your sander. Overloading will result in a considerable reduction in speed and
efficiency and the unit will become hot. In this event, run sander at a "no load" condition for a minute
or two.
BRUSH REPLACEMENT (FIGS. 9 & 10)
Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or
installing attachments or accessories. Be sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.
To replace the brushes, remove the three screws located in the top cap (Fig. 9).
Remove the top cap. Observe the brush holders, as shown in Fig. 10 and the wires leading from the
brushes to the motor field.
Pull the wires from the motor field. Lift and hold out of the way one of the brush springs. Remove the
old brush from the brush holder and discard the brush/wire assembly. Still holding the brush spring
out of the way, insert the new brush, release the spring against the back of the brush, and plug the
wire into the motor field. Repeat the procedure for the second brush.
Replace the top cap and tighten the three screws that hold it in place. (Always replace both
brushes.)

IMPORTANTES MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ
: Lire toutes ces directives. Tout manquement aux directives suivantes pose des
risques de choc électrique, d'incendie et/ou de blessure grave. Le terme « outil électrique » dans tous
les avertissements ci-après se rapporte à votre outil électrique à alimentation sur secteur (avec fil) ou
par piles (sans fil).

CONSERVER CES MESURES
1)
La sécurité de votre espace de travail
a)
Veillez à ce que votre espace de travail reste propre et bien éclairé. Les espaces de
travail encombrés ou mal éclairés sont des invites aux accidents.
b)
Ne faites pas fonctionner vos outils électriques dans des atmosphères explosives,
par exemple en présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les
outils électriques créent des étincelles qui peuvent mettre le feu à ces poussières ou à ces
vapeurs.
c)
Gardez les enfants et les observateurs à distance pendant que vous faites
fonctionner un outil électrique. Les distractions peuvent vous faire perdre le contrôle de
votre outil.
2)
La sécurité électrique
a)
La fiche de l'outil électrique doit être compatible avec la prise de courant. Ne
modifiez jamais la fiche de quelque façon que ce soit. N'utilisez jamais d'adaptateurs
de fiches avec des outils électriques mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera
réduit par l'utilisation de fiches non modifiées et de prises de courant compatibles.
b)
Évitez tout contact corporel avec des surfaces mises à la terre ou à la masse, telles
que des conduits, des radiateurs, des cuisinières ou des réfrigérateurs. Il existe un
risque de choc électrique accru quand votre corps est relié à la terre.
from
c)
N'exposez pas des outils électriques à la pluie ou à des environnements humides.
L'infiltration d'eau dans un appareil électrique augmentera le risque de choc électrique.
d)
Ne maltraitez pas le cordon, et ne vous en servez jamais pour soulever l'outil
électrique ou le traîner ; ne tirez pas non plus sur le cordon afin de le débrancher.
Gardez le cordon à distance de la chaleur, de l'huile, de bords tranchants ou de
pièces mobiles. Les cordons endommagés ou emmêlés augmentent le risque de choc
électrique. Les cordons endommagés ou emmêlés augmentent les risques de choc
électrique. Remplacer ou faire réparer tout cordonendommagé. S'assurer que la rallonge
est en bon état. N'utiliser que des rallonges trifilaires munies de fiches tripolaires et des
prises tripolaires acceptant la fiche de l'outil.
e)
Lorsque vous faites fonctionner un outil électrique en plein air, utilisez une rallonge
classifiée pour un usage en plein air. En utilisant une rallonge de classification plein air,
vous réduisez le risque de choc électrique. En cas d'utilisation d'une rallonge, s'assurer que
les valeurs nominales de la rallonge utilisée correspondent bien à celles de l'outil alimenté.
L'usage d'une rallonge de calibre insuffisant causera une chute de tension entraînant perte
de puissance et surchauffe. Le tableau ci-dessous illustre les calibres à utiliser selon la
longueur de rallonge et l'intensité nominale indiquée sur la plaque signalétique. En cas de
doutes, utiliser le calibre suivant. Plus le calibre est petit, plus la rallonge peut supporter de
courant.
