PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specifi ed on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF positon. If
the plug is connected to a 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 suffi cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
4. Installing the sanding paper
Align the hole in the base with the sanding paper holes.
Place the sanding paper over the base. Next line up
both ends of the sanding paper with the base width-
wise, and fold the sanding paper (Fig. 1).
Align the fold with the edge of the base, and grip one
side with the paper holder (Fig. 2).
Now grip the opposite side of the sanding paper with
the paper holder.
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
(1) Attaching the Dust Bag
As shown in Fig. 3, 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. 3, 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 fl uid 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 necessary
to preclude damage to the material. The same applies
when switching the power OFF.
2. How to hold the orbital sander
While gripping the housing, lightly press the sander
against the surface to be sanded so that the sanding
paper uniformly contacts the surface, as shown in
Fig. 4. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the sander
while sanding. Excessive-pressure may cause overload
of the motor, reduced service life of the sanding paper,
and lowered sanding or polishing effi ciency.
3. How to move the orbital sander
For optimum operating effi ciency, alternately move the
sander forward and backward at a constant speed and
balance.
4. After installing new sanding paper
Movement of the sander may tend to become unsteady
after new sanding paper has been installed, because of
the new, coarse grain of the paper. This can be avoided
by slightly tilting the sander forward or backward during
sanding or polishing. Sander movement will become
steady as the sanding paper surface becomes properly
abraded.
5. Using commercial sanding paper having no holes
Obtain 230 × 280 mm sanding paper and cut into 3
equal longitudinal portions (Fig. 5).
