5. OPERATION
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions before use.
5.1.
ASSEMBLY.
5.1.1.
Apply appropriate sanding disc to the backing pad. Use only pads with speed ratings equal to or higher than the speed rating of the
sander. DO NOT use cloth backed sanding pads.
5.1.2.
Connect air supply to sander and press the control valve lever and check that the sander is working correctly.
5.1.3.
The air flow may be regulated by turning the knurled throttle knob on the side of the handle.
5.2.
OPERATING.
The sander is designed to provide a "rotary" or "random orbit" action, see fig.4 for method.
Always use sanding disc with grit appropriate for the job. Work progressively from coarse grades to finer grades. DO NOT go from
coarse to fine in one step as it may be difficult to remove swirl marks left by the coarser grit. DO NOT apply excessive pressure, let
the sander do the work for you. Start the sander and bring the sanding disc to the the work surface evenly and slowly. Move the sander
back and forth in overlapping areas. Remove the sanding disc from the work surface before stopping the sander. Regularly check the
sanding pad for wear, always change a cracked or damaged pad.
DO NOT allow sander to run idle for an extended period of time as this will shorten bearing life.
6. MAINTENANCE

before use.
Clean the sander after use and change pads when required.
6.2.
Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:
6.3.
a)
Excessive drain on the air line. Moisture or restriction in the air pipe. Incorrect size or type of hose
connectors. To remedy check the air supply and follow instructions in chapter 3.
b)
Grit or gum deposits in the sander may also reduce performance. If your model has an air strainer
(located in the area of the air inlet), remove the strainer and clean it. Flush the sander out with gum
solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No 10 oil and kerosene. Allow to dry before use.
If you continue to experience problems, contact your local Sealey service agent.
To remove backing pad disc, use a 16mm spanner to hold the spindle and rotate pad anticlockwise.
