SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Work area

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite

accidents.

b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric

shock.

e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the

risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or

plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool
on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result

in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

160W DETAIL SANDER

f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery

or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use

of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application.

The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance
with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular
type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from

intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

HEALTH ADVICE

Warning! When drilling, sanding, sawing or grinding, dust particles will be

produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working with,
this dust can be particularly harmful to you (e.g. lead from old gloss paint).
You are advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working
with and to reduce the risk of exposure. You should:

- Work in a well-ventilated area.

- Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter microscopic particles.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR DETAIL
SANDER

Warning: Be sure to read and understand all instructions. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/

or serious personal injury.

1. Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual carefully. Learn the
applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related
to this tool.

2. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields when using this sander. Everyday
eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.

3. Always protect your lungs. Wear a face mask or dust mask if the operation
is dusty.

4. Always protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended
periods of operation.

5. Always inspect the tool cords periodically and if damaged have them
repaired. Always be aware of the cord location.

6. Always check for damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, aguard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine if it will
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that
may affect the tool’s operation. A guard or other part that is damaged, should
be properly repaired or replaced at an qualified service centre.

7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the
plug from the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of

electric shock.

8. Always make sure that your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord be sure to use one that is heavy enough to carry the
current that your tool will draw. A wire gauge (AWG) of at least 14 is recommended

for an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. When working outdoors always

use an

extension cord that is suitable for outdoor use. Smaller gauge wires, have greater

capacity (16 gauge wire has more capacity than 18 gauge wire).

An undersized

cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating.

9. Always inspect and remove all nails from lumber before sanding.

10. Do not use the tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
any medication. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious

personal injury.

11. Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct
others who may use this tool. If someone borrows this tool, make sure they
have these instructions also.

Warning! Some dust created by power sanding and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or

other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:

160W DETAIL SANDER

• Work in a well-ventilated area.

• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING:

the operation of any sander can result in foreign objects being thrown

into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power

tool operation, always

wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shield and a full

face shield when needed.

Warning: If any parts are missing, do not operate your sander until the missing
parts are replaced. failure to follow this rule could result in serious personal

injury.

Caution: Do not let familiarity with your sander makes you careless. Remember
that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to cause severe injury.

Double insulation:

The tool is double insulated. This means that all the external metal parts are electrically
insulated from the mains power supply. This is done by placing insulation barriers
between the electrical and mechanical components making it unnecessary for the tool
to be earthed.

Important note

Be sure the supply is the same as the voltage given on the rating plate. The tool is
fitted with a two-core cable and plug.
Remove the mains plug from socket before carrying out any adjustment or servicing.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Warning: Before using your sander be sure
to read the instruction manual carefully.

Operating instructions

1. Know your sander

can’t reach. It is ideal for sanding, polishing,
detailing, removing rust with sanding pads, tips,
polishing pads and scrubbing pads (include). It
features hook-and-loop attachment for fast, easy
sanding pads attachment or removal. Before
attempting to use any tool, be sure to familiarize
yourself with all the operating features and safety
instructions.

2. Electrical connection

Your sander has a precision-built electric motor
and it should only be connected to a 230 V, 50Hz.
Power supply (normal household current). If your
sander does not operate when plugged into an
outlet, have a professional electrician check the
power supply.

Warning: Always switch off and unplug

from the mains before making any
adjustment, including replacing sanding base
and fitting sanding paper.

3. Rocker switch

5. Sanding

Always hold the sander as shown in fig 4.
Move the sander in long, sweeping strokes across
the sanding surface. Light pressure is all that is
needed for sanding, polishing and scrubbing. Let
the sander do the work. Check your work often.
This sander removes material quickly (See fig 5).
Note: Applying excessive pressure will slow
down the sander and produce unsatisfactory
results.

7. Selecting the right sander paper

Selecting the correct grit of sander paper is an
extremely important decision that will allow you
to achieve the best quality sanding finish.
Coarse grit will remove most material and finer
grit will give you the best finish in all sanding
operations. The grit which will be choosed to
do the job is determined by the condition of the
surface.

If the surface is rough:

Start with coarse grit (sold separately) and sand
until the surface is uniform. Then use medium to
remove any scratches left by the coarse grit. Then
use finer grit (sold separately) for finishing the
surface.
Note: Always continues sanding with each grit
until the surface is uniform.
Using the polishing and scrubbing pads
This tool is also ideal for cleaning, polishing and
removing rust with the polishing and scrubbing
pads (sold separately).

MAINTENANCE

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication
or maintenance. There are no user serviceable
parts in your power tool.
Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean
your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.
