Set Up Instructions:
Attaching Abrasive Hook & Loop Sandpaper
Always make sure the sander is off before removing sandpaper. The Turbo Drywall Sander is equipped with a hook and loop sandpaper system. Align one edge of the loopbacked sandpaper with the hook- topped sander pad. Then align the opposite edge of the sandpaper and sander pad. Push down and press paper firmly along the length of the sandpaper until sandpaper is smooth and flat.
Note: Other types of regular or peel and stick
sandpaper will not work with this system.
Grounding
Due to static electricity that could build up from normal sanding in dry conditions, this sander has been supplied with a grounding strip. This grounding strip is installed at the factory before shipping. It is located inside of the gooseneck and extends down the inside of the extendable pole.
NOTE: If static electric shock should occur, the
grounding strip may need to be reinstalled.
Extendable Pole – The extendable pole has a twist
and lock feature that allows the pole to be shortened or lengthened for use. Twist the handle lock clockwise to loosen, counter clockwise to tighten.
Vacuum Hose Adapter – A soft black 1-1/2” vinyl
hose adapter, part # 14311, is provided for connecting the Turbo Drywall Sander to Model 16004QV “Dustless” Wet/Dry Vacuum manufactured by Love-Less Ash Com­pany. This adapter has left handed treads for connecting to a 1-1/2” diameter hose. The non threaded end slips over the end of the extendable pole.
Acme Thread Adapte – This is supplied so the exten-
sion pole may be used for universal purposes ie paint roller or broom handle. Part # 56112
Lubricating Oil – This specially designed lubricating oil
will not attack plastic surfaces. It will evaporate and not create buildup on the high-speed turbine. Minimum of 3-4 drops of oil should be applied every 30 minutes of actual sanding. Apply oil while vacuum is on and attached to sander. This will draw the oil into the sander bearings.
Oil Hole – Make sure the oil hole is facing away from
adjoining surfaces so clean air is drawn into the sander.
Helpful Hints:
1. The lubrication hole located on the side of the sander must at all times be kept away from working surfaces or walls. This allows the hole to breathe clean air and reduces the amount of dust drawn into the bearings.
Do not cover the hole as it must remain open at all times.
2. Use a light touch. This will allow the sander to sand and not get bogged down. You can still move the power head and help the sander to sand faster just use a light touch.
3. If the sander, with new sandpaper, is hard to maneuver on the wall, simply turn off the sander and then rub the sandpaper and sander 2-3 short swipes across a concrete floor. This knocks off the high uneven edges that may exist on new sandpaper.
4. The cap and gooseneck may be removed and the gooseneck reinstalled in a different rocking position. This allows the power head to rock at different angles as needed.
5. With the hand adapter Part #56611 the power head may be removed from the extension pole and used as a hand sander for tight locations where the pole may be cumbersome, ie halls or closets.
6. For best operation keep sander flat against the wall.
TROUBLE SHOOTING:
Hard to maneuver sander up and down the wall –
1. Pushing too hard. Sanding too hard will hinder the sanding vibration. A light touch is needed.
2. New sandpaper (refer to Helpful hints #3)
3.Wrong angle of sander for working direction.
(refer to Helpful hints #4)
Chattering –
1. Pushing too hard. Sanding too hard will remove the sanding vibration. A light touch is needed.
2. New sandpaper (refer to Helpful hints #3),
3. Wrong angle of sander for working direction, (refer to Helpful hints for solution #4)
Sander stops working –
1. Bearings may be frozen up. Lubricate sander every 30 working minutes of use with minimum of 3-4 drops of lubricating oil Part #53351. A large particle of material may be lodged in the turbine. Remove cap and goose neck and see that the turbine spins freely. Turbine screw may have worked loose.
2. No Suction – Check suction on wet/dry vac. Hose may be plugged – check for obstructions, check filters.
Dust is in the air –
1. Check wet/dry vac. Make sure the wet/dry vac is a “Dustless” system.
OPERATION: Connect the sanding power head to
the gooseneck. The cap threads onto the block and holds the gooseneck in place. Thread the gooseneck onto the extension pole. Use the soft 11/2” adapter to connect the end of the pole to the vacuum hose. Turn on your vacuum and the sander power head will vibrate.
