1. safety
WarninG! ensure Health & safety, local authority, and general workshop practice regulations are adhered to when using this
equipment.
WarninG! disconnect from air supply before changing accessories or servicing.
9 maintain the sander in good condition (use an authorised service agent).
9 replace or repair damaged parts. use genuine parts only. unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
9 use in suitable clean and tidy working area, free from unrelated materials and ensure there is adequate lighting.
9 Before each use check abrasive belt for condition. if worn or damaged replace immediately.
9 use only the correct size and type of sanding belt with this sander.
9 ensure there are no flammable or combustible materials near the work area.
WarninG! Always wear approved eye or face and hand protection when operating the sander.
9 use face, dust, or respiratory protection in accordance with cosHH regulations.
9 depending on the task, sander noise level may exceed 85dB, in which case wear safety ear defenders.
9 remove ill fitting clothing. remove ties, watches, rings, other loose jewellery and contain and/or tie back long hair.
9 Wear appropriate protective clothing and keep hands and body clear of working parts.
9 maintain correct balance and footing. ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
9 Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the work area.
9 check moving parts alignment on a regular basis.
9 ensure work piece is secure before operating the sander. never hold a work piece by hand.
9 check the work piece to ensure there are no protruding screws, bolts, nuts, nails, rivets, etc.
9 Avoid unintentional starting.
WarninG! ensure correct air pressure is maintained and not exceeded. recommended pressure 70-90psi.
9 Keep air hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. check air hose for wear before each use and ensure that all connections are
secure.
9 Prolonged exposure to vibration from this sander poses a health risk. it is the owner’s responsibility to correctly assess the potential
hazard and issue guidelines for safe periods of use and offer suitable protective equipment.
8 do not use the sander for a task it is not designed to perform.
8 do not operate sander if any parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.
WarninG! do not sand any materials containing asbestos.
8 do not carry the sander by the hose, or yank the hose from the air supply.
8 do not force, or apply heavy pressure to, the sander, let the sander do the work.
8 do not switch the sander on whilst the belt is in contact with the work piece.
8 do not operate sander when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
8 do not use sander where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases such as paint solvents and including waste wiping or cleaning
rags etc.
8 do not carry the sander with your finger on the power lever.
8 do not direct air from the air hose at yourself or others.
9 When not in use disconnect from air supply and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
WarninG! lead paint
Paint once contained lead as a traditional ingredient. the dust from the removal of such paint is toxic if ingested/inhaled and must,
be avoided. the following actions must be taken before using the sander on a surface that you suspect may contain lead paint.
1. user must determine potential hazard relating to age of paint to be removed (modern paints do not have lead content).
2. danGer! Keep all persons and pets away from the work area. the following persons are particularly vulnerable to the effects of
lead paint dust: expectant women, babies and children.
3. We recommend personal protection by using the following safety items:
a) Paint spray respirator (sealey ref. ssP1699)
b) Pe coated Hooded coverall (sealey ref. ssP265-l).
c) latex Gloves (sealey ref.ssP24).
4. take adequate measures to contain the paint dust, flakes and scrapings.
5. continue to wear safety equipment as in (3) above and thoroughly clean all areas when task is complete. ensure paint waste is
disposed of in sealed bags or containers and according to local Authority guidelines.

WarninG! – risk of Hand arm Vibration injury.
this tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
this tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the machinery directive 2006/42/ec.
this tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
measured vibration emission value (a): ............1.01 m/s²
uncertainty value (k): ...........................0.59 m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a
specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
nB: stated Vibration emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
nB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
the state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
syndrome.
Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be modified
accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPe) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry and
maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the correct use and
maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the Hsc website
www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
2. introduction

noise Power ..............................................................92.0dBA
4. preparinG for use
4.1. air supply (recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig.1).
4.1.1. ensure the sander air valve (or throttle) is in the “off” position before connecting to the air supply.
4.1.2. You will require an air pressure between 70-90psi, and an air flow of 7cfm.
WarninG! ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi.
too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage
and/or personal injury.
4.1.3. drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the sander and will invalidate your warranty.
4.1.4. clean compressor air inlet filter weekly.
4.1.5. line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). the minimum hose size should be 1/4”
i.d. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
4.1.6. Keep hoses away from heat, oil and sharp edges. check hoses for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.2. couplings.
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the air sander. to overcome this, connect a leader hose to
the sander. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. see figs.1 & 2.
