Original Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risks associated with vibration:
• If any physical hand/wrist discomfort is experienced, work should be stopped promptly to seek medical attention. Hand, wrist and
arm injury may result from repetitive work, motion and overexposure to vibration.
To reduce the risks associated with loud noise:
• Always wear hearing protection while operating this tool. Follow your employer’s safety policy or local/national standards for
personal protective equipment requirements.
To reduce the risks associated with fire or explosion:
• Do not operate the tool in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases, or dust. The abrasives are
able to create sparks when working material, resulting in the ignition of the ammable dust or fumes.
• Refer to MSDS of material being worked as to potential for creating re or explosion hazard.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous dust ingestion or eye/skin exposure:
• Use appropriate respiratory and skin protection, or local exhaust as stated in the MSDS of the material being worked on.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous voltage:
• Do not allow this tool to come into contact with electrical power sources as the tool is not insulated against electrical shock.
CAUTION
To reduce the risks associated with skin abrasion, burns, cuts, or entrapment:
• Keep hands, hair, and clothing away from the rotating part of the tool.
• Wear suitable protective gloves while operating tool.
• Do not touch the rotating parts during operation for any reason.
• Do not force tool or use excessive force when using tool.
To reduce the risks associated with whipping or hazardous pressure-rupture:
• Ensure supply hose is oil resistant and is properly rated for required working pressure.
• Do not use tools with loose or damaged air hoses or ttings.
• Be aware that incorrectly installed hoses and ttings might unexpectedly come loose at any time and create a whipping/impact
hazard.
To reduce the risks associated with fly off of abrasive product or parts:
• Use care in attaching abrasive product and disc pad; following the instructions to ensure that they are securely attached to the tool
before use.
• Never free spin the tool or otherwise allow it to be started unintentionally.
• Never point this product in the direction of yourself or another person, or start tool unintentionally.
• Never over-tighten accessory fasteners.

Operating / Maintenance Instructions
PRIOR TO THE OPERATION
The tool is intended to be operated as a hand held tool. It is always recommended that while using the tool, operators stand on a
solid oor, in a secure position with a rm grip and footing. Be aware that the sander can develop a torque reaction. See the section
“SAFETY PRECAUTIONS”.
Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give a measured air pressure at the tool of 6.2 bar (90 psig) when the tool is running with
the lever fully depressed. It is recommended to use an approved 10 mm (3/8 in) x 8 m (25 ft) maximum length airline. Connect the tool
to the air supply as shown in Figure 1. Do not connect the tool to the airline system without an easily accessible air shut off valve. It is
strongly recommended that an air lter, regulator and lubricator (FRL) be used as shown in Figure 1as this will supply clean, lubricated
air at the correct pressure to the tool. In any case appropriate air pressure regulators shall be used at all times while operating this
tool where the supply pressure exceeds the marked maximum of the tool. Details of such equipment can be obtained for your tool
distributor. If such equipment is not used, the tool should be manually lubricated. To manually lubricate the tool, disconnect the airline
and put 2 to 3 drops of suitable pneumatic motor lubricating oil such as 3M™ Air Tool Lubricant PN 20451, Fuji Kosan FK-20, Mobil
ALMO 525 into the hose end (inlet) of the tool. Reconnect tool to the air supply and run tool slowly for a few seconds to allow air to
circulate the oil. If the tool is used frequently, lubricate it on a daily basis or lubricate it if the tool starts to slow or lose power. It is
recommended that the air pressure at the tool be 6.2 bar (90 psig) while the tool is running so the maximum RPM is not exceeded. The
tool can be run at lower pressures but should never be run higher than 6.2 bar (90 psig). If run at lower pressure the performance of
the tool is reduced.

Safety Precautions
1. Read all instructions before using this tool. All operators
must be fully trained in its use and aware of these safety
rules.
2. The tool RPM should be checked on a regular basis to
ensure proper operating speed.
3. Make sure the tool is disconnected from the air supply.
Select a suitable abrasive and secure it to the disc pad. Be
careful to center the abrasive on the disc pad.
4. Always wear required safety equipment when using this
tool.
5. When sanding/bufng always start the tool on the
workpiece. This will prevent gouging due to excess speed
of the buff pad. Stop air ow to the tool as it is removed
from the workpiece.
6. Always remove the air supply to the sander before fitting,
adjusting or removing the abrasive or disc pad.
7. Always adopt a firm footing and grip and be aware of
torque reaction developed by the sander.
8. Use only 3M approved spare parts.
9. Always ensure the material being sanded is rmly xed to
avoid movement.
10. Check hose and fittings regularly for wear. Do not carry
the tool by its hose; always be careful to prevent the tool
from being started when carrying the tool with the air
supply connected.
11. Dust can be highly combustible.
12. If tool is serviced or rebuilt check to ensure that the
maximum tool RPM is not exceeded and that there is no
excessive tool vibration.
13. Do not exceed maximum recommended air pressure.
Use safety equipment as recommended.
14. Prior to installing any sanding or polishing accessory,
always check that its marked maximum operating speed
is equal or higher than the rated speed of this tool.
15. The tool is not electrically insulated. Do not use where
there is a possibility of contact with live electricity, gas
pipes, and/or water pipes.
16. This tool is not protected against hazards inherent in
grinding and cutting operations and no such accessories
should ever be attached.
17. Take care to avoid entanglement with the moving parts
of the tool with clothing, ties, hair, cleaning rags or loose
hanging objects. If entangled, stop air supply immediately
to avoid contact with moving tool parts.
18. Keep hands clear of the spinning pad during use.
19. If the tool appears to malfunction, remove from use
immediately and arrange for service and repair.
20. Immediately release the start handle in the event of any
disruption of pressure; do not attempt to re-start until the
disruption has been corrected.
21. When tool is not in use, store in a clean dry environment
free of debris.
22. Recycle or dispose of tool according to Local, State, and
Federal Regulations.

Removing and Mounting Disc Pad to Random
1. Disconnect air line from sander.
2. Remove old disc pad from sander by inserting the wrench,
supplied with the tool, between the rubber shroud and the
disc pad. Use the wrench to secure the sander spindle while
turning the disc pad counter clockwise.
3. After the old disc pad has been removed from the sander,
inspect the threaded hole in the spindle to ensure that the
threads are free of debris and undamaged.
4. Ensure that the phenolic washer is in place around the
threaded shaft of the new disc pad.
5. Secure the sander spindle with the wrench and tighten the
new disc pad securely to the tool.
An inadequately tightened disc pad could cause the threaded
spindle to break causing damage to the tool and work piece and
possible injury to the operator or bystanders.
