Adjusting The Speed - GMC ROS150CF Manual

This sander is designed to be connected to a household vacuum cleaner hose or workshop
dust extraction system. This is the preferred and most effective method of dust extraction:
1. Fit the Dust Extraction Adaptor (11) to the Dust Extraction Port (4) in place of the Dust
Canister (7)
2. Connect a suitable vacuum hose to the Dust Extraction Adaptor
Note: The Dust Extraction Adaptor is designed to fit a 32mm diameter hose.
• If no vacuum dust extraction system is
available, the supplied Dust Canister (7) must
be used:
1. Attach the Dust Canister to the Dust Extraction
Port (4) of the sander by pushing and twisting
the bayonet fitting
WARNING: For optimum dust extraction, remove
and empty the Dust Canister when it is no more
than half full.
2. Remove the cap from the end of the Dust
Canister to access the internal Dust Bag (12) in
order to replace or clean the bag. The Dust Bag
can be washed, but make sure it is completely
dry before refitting
WARNING: Remove and DO NOT use the Dust Canister (7) when sanding metal. Hot metal
particles and sparks could ignite residual wood dust, or cause the Dust Bag (12) to catch
fire. Always connect the sander to a suitable workshop dust extraction system when sanding
metal. Always clean the tool THOROUGHLY when switching from sanding wood to sanding
metal, and vice versa.
