WARNING For your own safety, read and understand all warnings and operating instructions before using any tool or equipment. WARNING Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: • Lead from lead-based paints. • Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR SANDER 2 Be aware of general power tool safety. Make sure all the safety rules are understood. • Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when sanding where the sanding pad may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. 2 ASSEMBLY • Do not wet sand with this sander. • Remove all nails from surface to be sanded.
NOTE: To remove the non-adhesive sandpaper, raise the front and rear paper clamps up and away from the tabs on the sander's base. This will release the sandpaper. • Stretch the sandpaper around the pad and slide it under the rear paper clamp. Lower rear paper clamp and lock into place behind the tab on the sander's base. ATTACHING DUST COLLECTION BOX Figure 2 Refer to Figure 4 WARNING Risk of Fire. DO NOT use the dust box when sanding metal.
