■ Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo
spheres, such ss in №e presence of flammablB liq
uids, gases, or dust Power Cools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes,
■ Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating a pcwer tool. Distractions can cause you to
iose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
■ Double insulated tools ars squippsd with a polar
ized plug {one blade is wider than the other). This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet reverse the plug,
if it still does not fit contact a qualified electrician
to install a polarized outlet Do not change the plug
in any way. Double insulation (□] eliminates the need
for the three-wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system.
■ Avoid body contactwith grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radators, ranges, and refrigerators. There
Is an Increased risk of electric shock if your body Is
grounded.
■ Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
■ Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry
the tools or pull the plug from an outlet Keep cord
away from heat, oil, ^arp edges, or moving parts.

ELECTRICAL
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire
grounded power cord. Ail exposed metal parts are
isolated from the internal metal motor components with
protecting insulation. Double insulated tods do not need
to be grounded.
WARNING: The doubie insulated system is
intended to protect the user from shock resulting
A
from a break in the tool's internal insulation. Observe
ail normal safety precautions to avoid electrical
shock.
NOTE: Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires
extreme care and knowledge of the system and should
be performed only by a qualified service technician. For
service, we suggest you return the tool to your nearest
authorized service center for repair Always use original
factory replacement parts when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This tod has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that le 120 volte, 60 Hz,
AC only (normal household current). Do not operate
this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop
will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If
your tool does not operate when plugged Into an outlet,
double-check the power supply.
EXTENSION CORDS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from
a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has
the capacity to handle the current the tool will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting
in overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to deter
mine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord.
Only round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter's Labora
tories (UL) should be used.
When working outdoors with a tool, use an extension
cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is
designated with “WA” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.

TO CONNECT VACUUM HOSE:
See Rgure 6.
When sanding for an extended period of time, you can
easily attach the dust collection system of the sender to a
vacuum.
To Attach:
■ Unplug the sander.
■ Remove dust bag from sander.
■ Attach vacuum hose to dust exhaust.
NOTE: Vacuum hose fits inside dust exhaust.
■ Connect sander and vacuum to power supply.
WARNING: When sander is not connected to
A
vacuum, ahvays install dust bag back on sander.
Failure to do so could cause sanding dust or foreign
objects to be thrown into the face or eyes which
could result in possible serious injury.
SANDPAPER SELECTION
Selecting the correct size grit and type sandpaper is
an extremely important step in achieving a high quality
sanded finish. Aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and other
synthetic abrasives are best for power sanding. Natural
abrasives such as hint and garnet are too soft tor eco
nomical use in power sanding. In general, coarse grit will
remove the most material and finer grit wii! produce the
best finish in all sanding operations. The condition of the
surface to be sanded will determine which grit will do the
job. If the surface is rough, start with a coarse grit and
sand until the surface is uniform. Medium grit may then
be used to remove scratches left by the coarser grit and
finer grit used for finishing of the surface. Always continue
sanding with each grit until surface is uniform.
NOTE: Do not use sander without sandpaper. Doing so
will damage the cushion.
CAUTION: Be careful not to let your hand com
pletely cover the air vents.
SANDING
See Flares 7 ~ 8.
Clamp or otherwise secure the work to prevent it from
moving under the sander.
WARNING: Unsecured work could be thrown to
wards the operator causing injury.
▲
Hold the sander in front and away from you, keeping it
dear of the workpiece. Start the sander by sliding the
switch button to the ON position and letting the motor
build to its maximum speed. Gradually lower the sander
on the work with a slight fonward movement. Move it
slowly using forward and backward strokes.

OPERATION
Do not force. The weight of the unit supplies adequate
pressure. Let the sandpaper and sander do the work. Ap
plying additional pressure sfows the motor, rapidly wears
sandpaper and greatly reduces sander speed. Excessive
pressure will overload the motor causing possible damage
from motor overheating and can result in inferior work.
Any finish or resin on wood may soften from the frictional
heat. Do not allow sanding on one spot too long, as the
Sander's rapid action may remove too much material,
making the surface uneven.
The front edge of the sander allows flush sanding in
corners. Always remove sander from workpiece before
turning the sander.
ORBITAL MOTION
See Figure 9.
Orbital motion is ideal for fast cutting action when remov
ing old finishes, smoothing rough wood, cutting stock
down to required dimensions, or for finishing surfaces to
be painted. The sandpaper moves in tiny circles at a very
high speed, allowing the sander to move easily.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: When servicing, use only identicat
▲
Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other parts
may create a hazard or cause product damage.
WARNING: Aturays wear safety gaggles or safety
' glasses with side shields during power tool operation
or when blowing dust, if operation is dusty, also wear
a dust mask.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using sofvenCs when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids,
A
gasoiine, petroleum-based products, penetrating
oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemi
cals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which
may result In serious personal injury.
Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard,
spackllng compounds, or plaster are subject to accel
erated wear and possible premature failure because the
fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bear
ings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not
recommended usii^ this tool for extended work on these
types of materials. However, if you do work with any of
these materials, it is extremely important to clean the tool
using compressed air.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a suffi
cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit
under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further
lubrication is required.
Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts
should be replaced at a Sears Service Center.
