This Product Conforms To 98/37/EEC Regulations
All hand held power tools vibrate to some extent, and this vibration is transmitted to the operator via the handle, or hand used to steady the tool. Vibration from about 2 to 1500 hertz is potentially damaging and is most hazardous in the range from about 5 to 20 hertz.
Operators who are regularly exposed to vibration may suffer from Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS), which includes ‘dead hand’, ‘dead finger’, and ‘white finger’. These are painful conditions and are widespread in industries where vibrating tools are used.
The health risk depends upon the vibration level and the length of time of exposure to it……in effect, a daily vibration dose.
Tools are tested using specialised equipment, to approximate the vibration level generated under normal, acceptable operating conditions for the tool in question. For example, a grinder used at 45° on mild steel plate, or a sander on softwood in a horizontal plane etc.
a’
These tests produce a value‘ average vibration level of all tests taken, in three axes where necessary. This value appears in the panel below.
a
’ values in excess of 2.5 m/s2 are considered hazardous when used for prolonged periods. A tool with
‘ a vibration value of 2.8 m/s2 may be used for up to 8 hours (cumulative) per day, whereas a tool with a value of 11.2 m/s2 may be used for ½ hour per day only.
The graph shows the vibration value against the maximum time the respective tool may be used, per day.
It should be noted that if a tool is used under abnormal, or unusual conditions, then the vibration level could possibly increase significantly. Users must always take this into account and make their own risk assessment, using the graph above as a reference.
Some tools with a high vibration value, such as impact wrenches, are generally used for a few seconds at a time, therefore the cumulative time may only be in the order of a few minutes per day. Nevertheless, the cumulative effect, particularly when added to that of other hand held power tools that may be used, must always be taken into account when the total daily dose rate is determined.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Sander Is Overheating
This indicates the machine is dirty. Clean the ventilation holes, and blow out with compressed air or clean with a dry cloth.
Overloading the machine will also cause overheating. Do not use for heavy duty work, and do not apply excessive 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.
The Dust Is Not Extracted
Dust bag is full (empty waste bag), dust extractor flue is blocked, this is usually caused by allowing bag to become too full, (remove and empty bag, also clear blockage).
Note :
Ensure sander is switched OFF and isolated from the mains by removing plug from socket.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Make sure that the sander is switched off and disconnected from the mains supply before starting any cleaning or maintenance procedures.
After use clean out any accumulated dust or chippings etc. Keep the cooling vents clear. If the sander should become too hot, run it for 2 minutes without load.
Clean the housing with a soft cloth. Any worn or damaged parts should be replaced by qualified personnel. Keep the handles clean and free from oil and grease. There are no user serviceable parts inside this sander. Refer to qualified service personnel if internal maintenance is required.
This product is provided with a standard 13 amp, 230 volt (50Hz), BS 1363 plug, for connection to a standard, domestic electrical supply. Should the plug need changing at any time, ensure that a plug of identical specification is used.

Variable speed control
Using The Sander
a) Before switching the sander ON, make sure that there are no nails or other objects
in the area to be sanded.
b) Switch the sander ON before applying it to the work surface. Move the sander
evenly over the work area. Never allow the sander to stay in one place for too long as this will give an uneven finish.
c) Hold the sander with both hands, using both handles.
d) Replace worn sanding paper. The performance of your sander is dependant on
the quality of the sanding paper being used. Remove the sander from the work area before switching it OFF, (wait until motor has stopped fully before putting tool down).
Note :
There is a spindle lock button near the support grip, this button has no function on this model.
Sanding Hints
• Do not apply excessive pressure to the sander. The weight of the sander alone is sufficient for normal use
• Always start your sander before it comes into contact with the workpiece, and do not switch off until it has been lifted off the workpiece.
• Always use both hands to hold the sander and clamp the workpiece for added stability and safety.
