ADVERTENCIA

Operation (Cont.)

This air tool

requires lubrication
before the initial use and before and
after each additional use.

Air tools require lubrication
throughout the life of the tool. Follow
the outlined procedures carefully.
Campbell Hausfeld air tool oil
(ST127000AV) is recommended because
this oil cleans, lubricates and inhibits
rust all in one step.

AIR MOTOR LUBRICATION

The air motor must be lubricated
daily. An air motor cannot be oiled
too often.

Disconnect the

air tool from the
air supply before lubricating.

1. Disconnect the tool from the air

supply.

2. Turn the air tool upside down.

3. Simultaneously (at the same time),

pull the trigger and pour a
teaspoon of Campbell Hausfeld oil
in the air inlet.

After an air tool

has been lubri­cated, oil will discharge through the
exhaust port during the first few
seconds of operation. Thus, the ex­haust port must be covered with a
towel before applying air pressure.
Failure to cover the exhaust port can
result in serious injury.

4. Release the trigger and connect the

air tool to the air supply. Cover the
exhaust port with a towel then run
the air tool for 7 to 10 seconds. Oil
will discharge from the exhaust
port when air pressure is applied.
Continue to run the sander until no
oil is discharged. Wipe all residual
oil from the tool before use.

SPEED ADJUSTMENT

This sander is equipped with a
regulator for speed adjustment (See
Replacement Parts List for
Specifications).

ATTACHING SANDING PAD/DUAL
ACTION SANDERS

Adhesive backed discs are
recommended. To apply the sandpa­per, align outside edge and press self
adhesive paper onto the pad. Change
sandpaper as needed.

supply before attaching the sanding
pad. Do not operate the sander if
sanding pad is not securely tightened.
Always replace a worn or damaged
pad. Serious injury could occur.

1. Lock the drive spindle in place
before attaching the sanding pad.
Rotate the spindle lock until the
spindle lock engages with the drive
spindle and hand-tighten the
sanding pad in a clockwise direc­tion (See Figure 1).

2. Unlock the spindle before applying
air pressure.

NOTE: The spindle lock is for attaching
and removing the sanding pad only!
Do not operate the tool with the
spindle locked or the sander will stall
when pressure is applied to the pad.

ATTACHING SANDING DISCS/HIGH
SPEED SANDERS

3” or 6” resin discs with non-adhesive
backs are recommended. The discs
should have 7/8” diameter cutout
centers for proper attachment. For
best support When using discs larger
than 3", use all the backup pads of
equal size or smaller than the resin disc
itself (See Fig. 2). To install the resin
disc, follow the outlined procedures.

Disconnect the air

tool from the air
supply before attaching the sanding
disc. Do not operate the sander if

!

WARNING

sanding disc is not securely tightened
or serious injury could occur.

1. Assemble the backup pads as
shown in Figure 2. Make sure the
recessed center of the pads face
the sander.

2. Place the resin disc in front of the
appropriate size pad and push the
adapter lock down through the
center of the pad and discs.

3. Hand tighten the adapter
lockdown, then insert the holding
tool into the hole shown in Figure

2. Insert a large screwdriver into
the slotted hole on the adapter
lock down and securely tighten.

SANDING/DUAL ACTION SANDERS

Begin sanding with an abrasive grit
coarse enough to remove the high
spots and any excessive roughness.
Follow with a second sandpaper using
a grit one to two ranges finer.
Continue with successively finer grits
until the desired finish is obtained. Do
not change from a coarse grit to a very
fine grit in one step. In doing so, it is
difficult to remove swirl marks that
might have been made by the coarse
grit abrasive. Always use the finest grit
practical for the sanding operation.

GRINDING/HIGH SPEED SANDERS

The coarse resin disc is used for
removing or smoothing over welds or
blending uneven metal surfaces. The
most common grit is 36 (Campbell
Hausfeld MP3264 discs).

Worn or damaged

sanding discs may
break apart causing serious injury.
Always replace discs as needed.

AIR HOSE

Refer to IN170102 Air Hose Hookup
Installation sheet for hookup
specifications.

NOTE: It is not recommended to install
a quick coupler between the sander
and the leader (whip) hose.

Use of a whip hose

prevents
accidental triggering of the tool when
pressurized air is connected to the
system.

In addition, the tool’s vibration wears
out quick couplers prematurely.

1. Grit or gum in tool

2. No oil in tool

3. Low air pressure

4. Air hose leaks

5. Pressure drops

6. Regulator set too low

1. Water in tank

2. Water in the air
lines/hoses

Spindle lock is in the

1. Flush the tool with Campbell Hausfeld air tool oil, gum
solvent, or an equal mixture of SAE 10 motor oil and
kerosene. If Campbell Hausfeld oil is not used, lubricate the
tool after cleaning

2. Lubricate the tool according to the lubrication instructions
in this manual

3a. Adjust the regulator on the tool to the maximum setting (If

applicable)

3b. Adjust the compressor regulator to tool maximum while the

tool is running free

4. Tighten and seal hose fittings if leaks are found

5a. Be sure the hose is the proper size. Long hoses or tools using

large volumes of air may require a hose with an I.D. of 1/2”
or larger depending on the total length of the hose

5b. Do not use multiple number of hoses connected together

with quick connect fittings. This causes additional pressure
drops and reduces the tool power. Directly connect the
hoses together

6. Adjust regulator until tool reaches maximum speed

1. Drain tank. (See air compressor manual). Oil tool and run
until no water is evident. Oil tool again and run 1-2 seconds

2a. Install a water separator/filter (PA2121). NOTE: Separators

only work properly when the air passing through the
separator is cool. Locate the separator/filter as far as
possible from the compressor

2b. Install an air dryer

2c. Anytime water enters the tool, the tool should be oiled

immediately

Unlock spindle (See Figure 1)

Operation (Cont.)

Using fittings or air hoses which are
too small can create a pressure drop
and reduce the power of the tool. A
3/8” (I.D.) fitting with 1/4” NPT threads
is recommended. Most compressors are
shipped with a short, 1/4” I.D. hose.
For proper performance and more
convenience, use a 3/8” I.D. hose.
Hoses longer than 50 feet should have
a 1/2” I.D.

Never carry a tool

by the hose or pull
the hose to move the tool or a
compressor. Keep hoses away from
heat, oil and sharp edges. Replace any
hose that is damaged, weak or worn.

Maintenance

STORAGE

The air tool must be lubricated before
storing. Follow the air motor

exception to step 4. Run the sander for
only 2 to 3 seconds so more oil will
remain in the air tool when storing.
