General Operating Instructions - Central Pneumatic 98895 Owner's Manual & Safety Instructions

Tool Set Up
TO pREVENT SERIOUS INJURy FROM AccIDENTAL OpERATION:
Turn off the tool, detach the air supply, safely discharge any residual air pressure in the tool,
and release the trigger before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
TO pREVENT SERIOUS INJURy:
Do not adjust or tamper with any control or component in a way not specifically explained
within this manual. Improper adjustment can result in tool failure or other serious hazards.
1. Attach Dust Collection Hose (46)
to the Exhaust/Dust Collection
Port (35). Attach Dust Bag (47) or
dust collector to other end of hose.

General Operating Instructions

1. If an automatic oiler is not used, add a few
drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline
connection before use. Add a few drops
more after each hour of continual use.
2. Wipe the work surface clean of all dirt and
debris, especially that of previous courser
sanding sessions, which will scratch the
surface of a finer grit sanding session.
3. Attach the desired grit sanding disc (sold
separately) onto the Backing Pad.
4. Attach the air supply.
5. Pressing down on the Trigger with the
palm of your hand starts the Sander. Grip
the Sander but with the palm of the hand
not pressing down. With the sanding pad
placed flat on the working surface, press
down on the Trigger with the palm of the
hand to begin the sanding operation.
cAUTION! Always start and stop the Sander
while it is held firmly against the work surface.
Applying the Sander to the workpiece while
running with the sanding pad tilted will sand
a groove into the workpiece and may cause
the Sander to move in the direction of rotation,
resulting in loss of control of the tool.
6. The speed of the Sander may be
varied by turning the Air Regulator.
Item 98895 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
2. 6" sandpaper discs (sold separately) attach
to the Backing Pad (41) using a hook
& loop system. Line up the six holes in
the sanding disc with the six holes in the
Backing Pad and press them together.
Note: Do not allow free, no-load
rotating at high speed to avoid possible
injury or damage to the tool.
7. Keep heavy pressure off of the
Sander when operating. Allow the
sanding disc to do the work.
8. Move the Sander in a uniform pattern up and
down or side to side to ensure even sanding.
9. Periodically, stop the Sander and check
for possible disc wear. Replace used or
worn sanding discs when necessary.
10. If the tool requires more force to accomplish
the task, verify that the tool receives sufficient,
unobstructed airflow (CFM) and increase the
pressure (PSI) output of the regulator up to
the maximum air pressure rating of this tool.
cAUTION! TO pREVENT INJURy FROM
TOOL OR AccESSORy FAILURE:
Do not exceed the tool's
maximum air pressure rating.
If the tool still does not have sufficient force
at maximum pressure and sufficient airflow,
then a larger tool may be required.
11. To prevent accidents, after use, release
the Trigger, detach the air supply and then
safely discharge any residual air pressure
in the tool. Clean external surfaces of the
tool with a clean, dry cloth. Then store the
tool indoors out of children's reach.
