SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
SAVE & KEEP A COPY OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of ammable 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. Unmodied plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,
General Power Tool
Safety Warnings
WARNING
9
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.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD 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 inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or
energising 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.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
10
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 dust collection 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 and/or
the battery pack from the power tool 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 tool’s 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, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
11
1. Always wear eye protection.
2. Never operate The Renovator in wet conditions.
3. During extended periods of use wear ear protection.
4. If operating in a dusty environment wear a dust mask.
5. Check and remove nails, screws and any other metal
object from timber before sanding.
6. Always inspect walls and ceilings to avoid possible hidden
power cables and pipes.
7. Use clamps or other suitable clamping devices to secure
the work piece rmly to the surface.
8. Only use attachments supplied with The Renovator.
9. Do not use broken, torn or worn accessories and
attachments. Only use attachments that are in a good
working condition.
10. Inspect power cords and plugs before using The
Renovator. If any damage is apparent have it repaired rst.
Always make sure that the cord is located in a safe area.
11. Never abuse the power cord and keep it clear from heat
sources, liquids, sharp objects and moving parts at all times.
Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging The
Renovator. Immediately replace damaged cords.
12. Always start The Renovator in a clear space and let it
reach optimal speed before moving into the work piece.
13. Before replacing attachments unplug the power cord.
14. Do not ‘jam’ the E-cut saw blades or use excessive force.
Never make an overly excessive deep cut.
15. Keep your hands clear of the work area and always cut
away from yourself and other people.
16. Always hold The Renovator by the insulated grip when
cutting where hidden wiring may exist or where the power
cords may lie.
Electric shock may result when metal parts of The Renovator
make contact with ‘live‘ wires.
17. This Safety and Operating Manual and other enclosed
safety information should be kept safe with The Renovator.
Refer to them regularly and use them to instruct others who
may use or borrow The Renovator. The manual and other
instructions should be passed on to the new owner if The
Renovator is sold.
Additional Safety
Rules

WARNING!
Whilst working with The Renovator vibration may occur
to your hands and arms. To reduce the effects of vibration
use the proper work practices. (See Operating Tips on page
14 for more information).
CAUTION:
Do not let yourself get careless as you become familiar
with The Renovator. A moment of carelessness can cause
severe injury.
WARNING!
Some dust created by The Renovator from sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
on certain materials may contain chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
a) Lead from lead-based paint;
b) Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry
products;
c) Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated timber.
Depending on how often you do this type of work your risk of
exposure to these chemicals will vary. To reduce the risk of
exposure to these chemicals:
a) Always work in a well ventilated area;
b) Use dust masks specically designed to lter
microscopic particles as well as other approved safety
equipment;
c) Use The Renovator’s vacuum attachment with an
approved ltering system to help catch dust from dispersing
into the air.
Avoid long periods of exposure to dust from sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap
and water.
Do not allow dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on
exposed skin. This may promote the absorption of harmful
chemicals.
Use of The Renovator on certain materials can generate
and/or disperse dust which may cause serious and
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
13
permanent respiratory problems or other injury.
Always use approved respiratory protection appropriate
for dust exposure according to your national safety
organisations.
Direct dust particles away from your face and body.
EXTENSION CORDS
ALWAYS USE PROPER EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure
that any extension cord used are in good condition.
We recommend that power to the tool always be supplied
via a residual current device with a rated residual current
of 30 mA or less.
DOUBLE INSULATION
The Renovator is double insulated. This means that the
outer metal parts are electrically insulated from the main
power supply. This makes it unnecessary for the tool to be
grounded. Insulation barriers between the electrical and
mechanical components create the double insulation.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Ensure the voltage matches the power supply given on the
rating label. The Renovator is tted with a two core power
cord and plug.
Remove the power cord from the power socket before any
servicing or adjustments are carried out on the unit.
To reduce the risk of injury, the operator must rstly read and
understand the Safety and Operating Manual.

TIP: Make sure the tool
attachments are placed on
the Renovator the correct
way around. The bend in the
blades project the cutting edge
away from the washer and
bolt. This allows the blade to
sit ush against the surface
of a material without the bolt
becoming an obstruction.
If you are unable to make a
simple cut because the bolt
keeps banging against the
material, then it is likely that

Typical Application: removing grout and mortar between tiles.
• Select high oscillation frequency.
• Using the semicircular grout blades, for use on grout, and soft mortar,
for getting in between tiles and tight objects and cutting up to walls, use
a forward and backward motion.
SEMI-CIRCULAR GROUT ATTACHMENT
Attaching the Semi-circular Grouter
(Refer to ‘Connecting Attachment Tool’ instructions on page 16)
TIP: Place washer on the same way it was taken off or the
attachment will be loose and vibrate causing damage to the tool
and attachment.
TIP: Use the straight edge of the blade to allow cutting right up to
perpendicular walls and into corners.
Let the tool do the work, too much pressure will make it harder to
control.
CUTTING FLUSH TO A WALL

Application: Broken Tile Replacement
• Start by removing grout around
the broken tile. This will separate
the broken tile from the adjacent
tiles. (1-2)
• With the straight edge of the
semi-circular grout blade
set towards the front of the
Renovator, the blade can cut
right up to the wall tiles without
damaging them. (3)
• Once the grout has been
removed between the broken
and the adjacent tiles, use a
hammer to break up the broken
tile into smaller pieces. (4)
• Use a paint scraper or similar
tool to remove the small pieces
of broken tile. (5)
• Use the Renovator with the
Triangular Rasp attachment to
remove the remaining hardened
grout from beneath the broken
tile. (6)
• Now the area is clear to lay
new grout. Slot a new tile into
position. (7)

• Use a guide line or straight edge to help you keep the tool moving in
the right direction.
• On the top of the tile run the Diamond Blade in a smooth, back and
forth motion using a guide if needed.
• Let the Diamond cutting Blade score the tile until it has cut below
the surface glazing on the tile.
• Place the scored line of the tile on a solid edge object like a
workbench . Hold the larger side of the area to be broken rmly with
the smaller side over hanging the edge. Use a hammer and lightly
tap the tile and it should break neatly along the scored line.

HINTS FOR USING THE RENOVATOR
• Avoid using The Renovator for prolonged periods, especially
whilst a very low speed is set. If The Renovator becomes too
hot, switch The Renovator off. This should cool the motor.
• Always keep the blades sharp.
• Ensure the work piece is secured rmly or clamped to prevent
movement.
• Even slight movement of the material can affect the nish of the
cutting or sanding.
• Start and stop The Renovator whilst clear of the work piece.
• Remember to t a sanding sheet before starting to sand.
• Do not allow the sandpaper to wear right through, it will damage
the delta sanding pad. Our guarantee does not cover sanding
pad wear and tear.
• When sanding rough surfaces use a coarse grit, medium grit for
smooth surfaces and ne grit for the nishing surfaces. Use a
scrap piece of material to test for the correct sanding coarseness
you need if you are in doubt.
• Excessive pressure will reduce the performance of The
Renovator and may cause the motor to overload.
• Replacing the attachment tools regularly will maintain optimum
performance.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Remove the power cord from the power socket before carrying
out any servicing, adjustments or maintenance to The Renovator
or attached accessories.
The Renovator requires no additional lubrication or maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in The Renovator.
Never use liquids or chemicals to clean your power tool. Wipe
with a clean, dry cloth.
Always store The Renovator in a safe, dry place.
Keep the motor ventilation slots and controls clear of dust and
other debris.
Sparks may occasionally be seen through the ventilation slots.
This is normal and will not damage your power tool.
If the power supply cord is damaged, you must have it replaced
immediately by the manufacturer or an approved service agent
or similarly qualied persons.
