CONNECTING YOUR MACHINE TO THE POWER SUPPLY: (240V)

To eliminate the possibility of an electric shock your machine has been fitted with a BS
approved, non rewireable moulded plug and cable which incorporates a fuse, the value
of which is indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced an

approved BS1362 fuse must be used of the same rating, marked thus .

The fuse cover is detachable, never use the plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement
fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the
plug (i.e. red). Fuse covers are available from your Draper Tools stockist.
If the fitted plug is not suitable, it should be cut off and destroyed. *The end of the cable
should now be suitably prepared and the correct type of plug fitted. See below.

*WARNING:

A plug with bare flexible wires exposed is hazardous if engaged in a live power socket
outlet.

WARNING:THIS APPLIANCE IS DOUBLE INSULATED.

Blue – Neutral, Brown – Live.
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter ‘N’ or coloured black or blue.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter ‘L’ or coloured red or brown.

CONNECTING YOUR MACHINE TO THE POWER SUPPLY (110V)

To eliminate the possibility of an electric shock your machine has been fitted with a BS
approved, rewireable plug and cable. If the fitted plug is not suitable, it should be
removed, the end of the cable should be suitably prepared and the correct type of plug
fitted. See below.

WARNING:THIS APPLIANCE IS DOUBLE INSULATED.

Single phase 110 volt machines must be connected using the relevant coding and
matching the colour of the flexible cable to that of the plug. The procedure is as follows:

1. Connect brown coloured core to plug terminal marked letter ‘L’ (live).

2. Connect blue colour core to plug terminal marked letter ‘N’ (neutral).

OPERATION & USE

IMPORTANT

Check before plugging in that the mains voltage
agrees with the voltage on the rating plate of the
machine.

STARTING AND APPLICATION

The machine is supplied ready for use, with an
abrasive belt. In order to start work, securely hold the
machine with both hands and press the switch.

WARNING
The switch on this tool is fitted with a locking
device ✫✌ allowing the tool to be operated for
long periods of time without interruptions. (Fig.2.)

Before inserting the plug into the socket, check
that the switch is in the unlocked position.When
the tool is not to be used for long periods
remember to leave the switch device in the
unlocked position.

Always use the machine in a horizontal position,
accompanying it along the stroke and without using
excessive pressure, so as to avoid the formation of
“raggings”. Fig.3.

ATTENTION!
Excessive pressure on the handgrip goes not
necessarily result in higher sanding speed, on the
contrary, it can provoke motor overloading and
less efficient operation.

It is not advised to use the machine for sanding metal
surfaces, but if this proves necessary it is absolutely
essential that the dust extraction unit is used.

ABRASIVE BELTS

Only use top quality abrasive belts as they improve
the machine performance and reduce the working
time. Only use abrasive belts with oblique joints, with
the grit grade reduced in the joint area or with the
grit grade completely eliminated in the joint area.

For roughing operations which require the removal
of large quantities of material, mainly use belts with
40 - 60 - 90 grit grades.

For finishing operations, use the belts with grit
grades from 150 to 320.

For sanding belts see Optional Accessories.

In order to prolong the life of the belt and to avoid
breakage, it is recommended to always work with the
dust extraction unit fitted.

IMPORTANT – DUST EXTRACTION FACILITY

Draper Tools recommends that the dust extraction
facility is used in conjunction with a suitable vacuum
cleaner or dust collector. (Fig.4).

Recommended Draper models:- WDV24,WDV1100,
SWD1100, DE1045 & DE1030.

CENTERING

In order to centre the belt (Fig.5), turn knob ✬✌with
the machine running, until the belt is centered. Avoid
making contact between the belt and the Aluminium
housing, as it will be damaged and will no longer be
able to work correctly. (Fig.6).

power supply. Pull the lever ✭✌ as illustrated
(Fig.7), extract the worn belt ✯✌ and replace it
with another original Draper belt, positioning it so
that the internal stamped arrows are facing in the
direction of arrow ✯✌. In order to fit the belt,
repeat the same operation in reverse order but
ensure you follow the directions on centering the
belt (page 6) before using.

OPERATION & USE

MAINTENANCE &
PART REPLACEMENT

- 8 -

Regular inspection and cleaning reduces the
necessity for maintenance operations and will
keep your tool in good working condition.The
tool bearings (and gears – Model BS75) are life­long lubricated. However it is advised to check
the condition of the grease in the BS75 every 100
hours, if necessary replace the grease. The motor
must be correctly ventilated during tool
operation. For this reason avoid blocking the air
inlets with hands. After use disconnect the tool
from the power supply and clean carefully, use
compressed air through ventilation slots.

DISPOSAL

At the end of the machine’s working life, or when
it can no longer be repaired, ensure that it is
disposed of according to the standard regulations
of the country in which it is being used, and that
the disposal operation is carried out by
specialized personnel following authorized
guidelines.

In all circumstances:

- Do not abandon in the environment;

- Do not dispose of together with solid urban
waste products;

- Contact the special recycling centres.

WARNING

Disconnect the plug from the power supply socket
before replacing any parts.

BRUSHES

The brushes must be replaced after approx. 150­200 working hours, or if they are less then 5-6mm
in length.

WARNING

For correct tool operation always change the
brushes in pairs, not separately. The use of
original Draper spare parts is recommended.
After having fitted new brushes allow the motor to
run for at least five minutes without load for the
brushes to bed.

IMPORTANT:

This operation should only be performed by an
authorized person.

REPLACING THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE

Check that the power supply cable is in good
condition, if not have it replaced by an authorized
person.
