POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WORK AREA

1. Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite
accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids or gases. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified

plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.

2. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

3. Do not abuse the cable. Never use it for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cables increase the risk of electric shock.

4. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cable suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock

5. If operating the power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a

residual current device (RCD) protected supply.

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or

under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in personal injury.

2. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

3. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging
in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

4. Remove any wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench left
attached to a rotating part may result in personal injury.

5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct accessories for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate which it was designed for.

2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.

3. Disconnect the plug from the power source before changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.

4. Store idle tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

5. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

6. Use the power tool and accessories in accordance with these instructions

and in the manner intended, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations

different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.

7. The performance of this tool may vary, depending upon variations in line
voltage. Extension cable usage may also affect performance.

SERVICE

1. Have your power tool serviced by qualified service personnel using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS FOR SANDERS

1. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the workpiece by hand
or against your body may lead to loss of control.

2. Dust arising from sanding may endanger the health of the operator and
possible bystanders. Wear a dust mask and ensure that persons entering
the work area are also protected.

3. Remove all dust after sanding.

FITTING THE DUST EXTRACTION ADAPTER OR FILTER CANISTER

Dust extraction equipment (not
supplied), can be used with your
sander by connecting a suitable
hose to the outlet port in place of the
dust filter canister.

1. Attach the dust extraction
adaptor by pushing it onto the
rear of the sander and locking in
place with a half twist.

NOTE: The user should still wear a

dust mask to prevent the inhalation of dust.

2. Alternatively, fit the filter canister
onto the rear of the sander and
lock in place with a half twist.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the

sander, some of the dust
produced will be forced into
the surrounding atmosphere
and will not be collected.

FITTING THE BASEPLATE AND SANDING PADS

1. Using the hex key supplied,
remove the 4 x bolts and install
the baseplate of your choice.

2. Between the baseplate and the
sander is a spacer disc. Fit the disc
into place, noting that there is a
small peg which aligns with a
corresponding hole in the sander.

3. Fit the new baseplate, resting
each of the four feet into the
corresponding socket.

4. Re-tighten the 4 x bolts securely.

SANDING SHEETS

1. When attaching the 1/3 sanding
sheet to the baseplate, release
the two spring clips - one at each
end.

2. Position the sanding sheet so that
the holes are aligned with those in
the base plate and bend the
ends over, securing at each end
with the spring clip.

• It is important that the sanding

sheet should be taught across the base when the second clip is secured.

3. If using hook and eye backed
sanding sheets, position the sheet
so that the holes are aligned with
those in the baseplate.

• This is necessary for dust

extraction.

4. Press the sheet firmly onto the
baseplate to attach it.

OPERATION

STARTING UP

1. With the sander disconnected
from the power supply, select the
sanding sheet and baseplate
appropriate for the job and
attach it to the sander as shown
on pages 8 & 9.

2. To switch the machine ON or OFF
press the rocker switch.

OPERATING TECHNIQUE

1. Always hold the sander securely.

2. Regularly check the condition of the sanding sheet and replace when
necessary.

3. On very uneven surfaces or when removing layers of paint, start with a
coarse grit. On other surfaces, start with a medium grit. In both cases,
gradually change to a fine grit for a smooth finish.

4. Always use a sanding sheet that is in good condition as damaged backing
will cause damage to the baseplate. Please note that baseplates are NOT
covered by your warranty.

5. Always place the sander on the workpiece before switching ON. This will
prevent the workpiece from being scored by the edge of a moving
sanding sheet.

6. Move the sander evenly and smoothly over the surface of the workpiece
with light even pressure. This helps to expel dust particles and produce an
even finish and will also prolong the life of the sanding paper.

7. Let the sander do the work, ensuring it is flat on the work surface. Do not
apply heavy pressure as this will not only produce an uneven finish but will
overload the motor causing it to burn out.

8. Wait until the sander has stopped completely before putting it down.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE, SWITCH OFF AND
UNPLUG THE SANDER.

Your sander has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a
minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon
proper care.

Regularly clean the ventilation slots using a soft dry brush or dry cloth. Only
clean the motor housing using a clean damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive
or solvent-based cleaner.

A damaged power cable should be replaced by your CLARKE dealer or
qualified electrician.

The bearings in this sander are sealed for life and require no maintenance.

FAULTFINDING

SANDER IS OVERHEATING

This indicates the machine is dirty. Clean the ventilation holes, and blow out
with compressed air. Always wear eye protection when using compressed air

Overloading the machine will also cause overheating. Do not use for heavy
duty work and do not apply heavy pressure.

EXCESSIVE SPARKING OCCURS

This indicates worn brushes. This problem is quickly remedied but you should
consult your CLARKE dealer for parts and advice.

SANDER DOES NOT OPERATE WHEN SWITCHED ON

Check to ensure the fuse is sound and replace if necessary. If the fuse is sound
or blows repeatedly, consult your CLARKE dealer.

POOR ABRASION

If the sander is not removing material efficiently, check the sanding paper. If
the abrasive is worn down replace the paper. The paper must always be
stored in a dry place as if it allowed to become damp, the abrasive particles
will detach from the paper and will not abrade.
