plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The temporary adapter should

be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be

installed by a qualified electrician.
NOTE: The adapter illustrated is for use only if you already

have a properly grounded 2-prong receptacle.

The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of

power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over

heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to deter

mine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension cord. Use

• Learn the use and function of the ON-OFF switch,
backstop lock screw, bell adjusting screws, belt tocking

screws, work table and work table tilt lock screw. {See
pages 16-18.)

• Review and understanding of all safety instructions and

operating procedures in this manual.

« Review of the maintenance methods for this sander.

(See page 22.)

BEFORE EACH USE;
Inspect your sander.

DISCONNECT THESANDER, To avoid injury from accidental
starting, unplug the sander, turn the switch off and remove
the switch key before changing the setup, sanding disc or

belt or adjusting anything.

CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Check for;

® alignment of moving parts,

• binding of moving parts,

• broken parts,

• stable mounting, and
9 any other conditions that may affect the way the sander

works.
If any part is missing, bent, or broken in any way, or any

electrical parts don't work properly, turn the sander off and
unplug the sander. REPLACE damaged, missing, or failed
parts before using the sander again,

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep the sander clean for
best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubri

cating.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES from tool

before turning it on.

To avoid injury from jams, slips or thrown pieces:

• USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. (See
page 22.) Consult this Owner's manual for recommended

accessories. Follow the instructions that come with the
accessories. The use of improper accessories may
cause risk of injury to persons.

• Adjust table to dear the sanding surface by no more than

1/16bf an inch.

» Make sure alt clamps and locks are tight and no parts have

excessive play.

• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches

invite accidents. Floor must not be slippery.

To avoid burns or other fire damage, never use the sander

near flammable liquids, vapors or gases.

Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face, ears.

KNOW YOUR SANDER. Read and understand the owner's

manual and labels affixed to the tool. Learn its application
and limitationsas well as the specific potènti al hazards pecu

liar to this tool.
To avoid injury from accidental contact with moving parts,

don't do layout, assembly, or setup work on the sander while
any parts are moving.

AVOID ACCIDENTALSTARTING. Make sure switchis "OFF"

before plugging sander into a power outlet.

Plan your work.

job it was not designed to do.

CAUTION: This machine is not designed for heavy deburring

operations. When finishing metals, sparks or hot fragments

could cause a fire. To avoid this, disconnect any dust col
lecting hose from the sander. Also, remove alt traces of wood
dust from inside dust traps in the sander.

Dress for safety.
Any power sander can throw foreign objects into the eyes. This

can cause permanent eye damage. Wear safety goggles (not
glasses) that comply with ANSI Z87.1. Everyday eyeglasses

have only impact resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses.
Safety goggles are available at Sears retail catalog stores.
Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87,1 could
seriously hurt you when they break.

• Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry
(rings, wrist watches). They can get caught and draw you

into moving parts.

9 Wear nonslip footwear.
9 Tie back long hair,
9 Roil long sleeves above the elbow.

• Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible hearing dam
age, wear ear plugs or muffs when using sander for hours at

a time.

9 Sanding operations are usually dusty. Wear a dust mask

along with the safety goggles.

Inspect your workpiece.

Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of
the workpiece to be sanded.

Plan your work to avoid THROWBACKS—when the work
piece catches on the sanding beit or disc and is torn from you r

hands.

• Make sure there's no debris between the workpiece and its
supports.

• When sanding irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your

work support so it will not slip and be pulled from your
hands.

Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward work
pieces:

• Never use this tool to finish pieces too small to hold by
hand.

• Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc.) for
any workpieces large enough to tip when not held down to
the tabletop.

• NEVER use another person as a substitute for a table exten
sion, or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer
or wider than the basic sander table, or to help feed, sup
port or pull the workpiece.

• When finishing on the Disc, always press the workpiece

against the "Down" side of the disc. Sanding against the
side coming up from under the table could damage the
work by making it "chatter," or tear the work from your
hands and throw it,

• Sand only one workpiece at a time.

• Cleareverythingexceptthe workpieceandrelated support
devices off the table before turning the sander on.

YOUR FINISHING MACHiNE.

Keep your machine and your workshop clean. The dust

traps around the abrasive disc and the abrasive belt are

designed to deflect most of the fine dust. They should be
connected to a Vac for most efficient dust removal.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTACH A VACWHEN FINISHING

DEBRIS AND CAUSE A FIRE.

tf power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way,
have it replaced immediately.

Frequently Wow out any dust that may accumulate
inside the motor.

A coat of automobile-type wax applied to the work
table will make it a little easier to feed the work while
finishing.

Do not apply wax to the abrasive belt table because the
belt could pick up the wax and deposit it on the pulleys,

causing the’belt to slip.

MOTOR MAINTEMAWCE AMD
LUBRICATiOM

1. The bearings, in both end shields of the motor, have been
lubricated at the factory with correct lubricant. No other
part of the motor requires lubrication.

2. Re-lubricate motor bearings in accordance with the
instructions on the nameplate. Be sure to wipe oil dirt or

grit if present around oil hole caps to prevent any possibility
of foreign material contaminating the oil wicks that supply
the bearings with oil. Use a good grade of medium weight

mineral oil. such as automobile engine oil, SAE 20.

3. If disassembly of the motor is necessary, it should be
returned to your nearest Sears retail or mail-order store in

order to prevent voiding the guarantee.

NOTE: The speed of this rnotor cannot be regulated or
changed.

4. Every effort should be made to prevent foreign material
from entering the motor. When operated under conditions
likely to permit accumulations of dust, dirt, or waste within

the motor, a visual inspection should be made at Irequent

intervals. Accumulations of dry dust can usually be blown
out successfully.

NOTE: Motors usedon wood working tools are particularly

susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips
and should be blown out or "vacuumed" frequently to
prevent interference with normal motor ventilation and

proper operation of the centrifugaliy-operated starting
switch.
