<SANDING DISC>
1. Assembling (Fig. 1)
(1) Turn the equipment upside-down so that the spindle
will be facing up.
(2) After placing the sanding disc on the rubber pad,
thread the washer nut onto the spindle.
(3) Press the push button to secure the spindle and
tighten the washer nut with a wrench.
2. Disassembling

CAUTIONS:
Comfirm that the depressed center wheel is mounted
firmly.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the depressed center wheel
Ensure that the depressed center wheel is free of
cracks and surface defects.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws:
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure
to do so could result in serious hazard.
3. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 4)
The Motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts.
When they become worn to or near the "wear limit",
it could result in motor trouble. When a auto-shop
carbon brush is equipped, the motor will stop
automatically.
At that time, replace both carbon brushes with new
ones which have the same carbon brush Numbers
shown in the figure. In addition, always keep carbon
brushes clean and ensure that they slide freely
within the brush holders.
4. Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 5):
<Disassembly>
(1) Loosen the D4 tapping screw retaining the tail cover
and remove the tail cover.
(2) Use the auxiliary hexagonal wrench or small
screwdriver to pull up the edge of the spring that
is holding down the carbon brush. Remove the
edge of the spring toward the outside of the brush
holder.
(3) Remove the end of the pig-tail on the carbon brush
from the terminal section of brush holder and then
remove the carbon brush from the brush holder.
<Assembly>
(1) Insert the end of the pig-tail of the carbon brush
in the terminal section of brush holder.
(2) Insert the carbon brush in the brush holder.
(3) Use the auxiliary hexagonal wrench or small
screwdriver to return the edge of the spring to the
head of the carbon brush.
NOTE:
Make sure the end of the spring is not holding the
pig-tail.
(4) Mount the tail cover and tighten the D4 tapping
screw.
5. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the
power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding
does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or
water.
