MAINTENANCE

MAKE SURE THE SANDER HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND UNPLUGGED FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE PERFORMING ANY
MAINTENANCE.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

Keep the machine CLEAN and FREE OF DUST. Vacuum or brush off any loose debris and wipe down the machine
and the tables occasionally with a damp rag.
Drums must always be kept clean. Dirt on drums will cause poor tracking and belt slippage.
Periodically inspect the ON/OFF switch, power cord, plug and other parts for damage.
DO NOT OPERATE THE SANDER WITH A DAMAGED SWITCH, POWER CORD, PLUG, OR OTHER PARTS. REPLACE A DAMAGED PART
IMMEDIATELY.
