PRIOR TO OPERATION

1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a power receptacle while
the power switch is in the ON position, the power
tool will start operating immediately, which could
cause a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Installing the sanding paper

as shown in Fig. 1. Place the sanding paper on the
pad so that the center of the sanding paper is aligned
with the center of the pad, and bend both ends of the
sanding paper at a 90° angle. Then, bend both ends
again in the manner shown in Fig. 2. The sanding
paper is now ready to be installed on the sander.
(2) Installing the sanding paper:
While ensuring that the cord is not bent, place the
sander on a workbench as shown in Fig. 3, and insert
one end of the sanding paper (bent section). Next,
insert the remaining bent section in the same manner.
CAUTION
The sanding paper must be precisely installed on the
pad, ensuring that there is ample tension (leaving no
slack). Loosely installed sanding paper could result
in unevenly sanded surfaces and/or damage to the
sanding paper itself.
5. Attaching and Removing the Dust Bag

As shown in Fig. 4, hold the dust gate and push it in
the direction of Arrow A to attach it to the dust outlet.
(2) Removing the Dust Bag
As shown in Fig. 4, hold the dust gate and pull it in
the direction of Arrow B to remove it from the dust
outlet.
CAUTION
Prior to the sanding operation, make sure the material
of surface you are going to sand.
If the surface under sanding operation is expected to
generate harmful / toxic dusts such as lead painted
surface, make sure the dust bag or appropriate dust
extraction system is connected with dust outlet tightly.
Wear the dust mask additionally, if available.
Do not inhale or touch the harmful / toxic dusts
generated in sanding operation, the dust can
endanger the health of yourself and bystanders.

PRACTICAL OPERATING PROCEDURES

CAUTION
Never apply water or grinding fluid when sanding. This
could result in electrical shock.
1. Switching the sander ON and OFF
The power can be turned on by setting the lever to
ON (1) and turned off by setting the lever to OFF (0).
CAUTION
Never turn the power switch ON when the sander is
contacting the surface to be sanded. This is neces-
sary to preclude damage to the material. The same
applies when switching the power OFF.
