instructions before performing any of these tasks.

Always inspect, operate, and maintain this tool in
accordance with American National Standards Institute
Safety Code of Portable Air Tools (ANSI B186.1) and any
other applicable safety codes and regulations.

These tools are rated at 90 psi / 6.2 bar max air pressure
for safety, top performance, and maximum durability of
parts; do not exceed this pressure while the tool is running.

Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and
disconnect tool from air supply when not in use, before
changing accessories, or when making repairs.

Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection when

operating or performing maintenance on this tool.
High sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss.

Always use hearing protection when using this tool as
recommended by your employer or OSHA regulation.

Do not wear jewelry or loose fitting clothes.
Do not use quick disconnect couplings at tool. See operating

instructions for proper set up.
Whipping hoses can cause serious injury. Always carefully

check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings before
operating this tool.

Avoid direct contact with accessories during and after use.
Gloves should be worn to reduce the risk of cuts or burns.

Never run the tool off of the work. The tool may run too fast
and cause the accessory to be thrown off of the tool.

Never use a backing pad, drum or abrasive with a permitted
speed lower than the air sander speed.

Use only recommended sizes and types of abrasives.
Ensure that sanding disks are mounted concentrically.
Never mount a grinding wheel on a sander. A grinding

wheel that burst can cause serious injury or death when not
properly guarded.

Inspect backing pad before each use. do not use if cracked
or damaged.

Never run the tool unless the abrasive is in contact with the
workpiece.

There is a risk or electrostatic discharge if used on plastic
and other non-conductive materials.

Slipping, tripping, and/or falling while operating air tools can
be a major cause of serious injury or death. Be aware of
your surroundings and any excess hose left on the walking
or working surface.

Pneumatic tools can cause vibration in use. Vibration,
repetitive motions or uncomfortable positions over extended
periods of time may be harmful to your hands and arms.
Discontinue use of tool if discomfort, tingling feeling or pain
occurs. Consult a physician before resuming use if any of
these symptoms occur.

Do not stretch or overreach while using this tool.
If tool appears to malfunction, remove from service

immediately and arrange for repair.
Never use tool if there is any chance of coming into contact

with line electricity.
Use only Sunex certified spare parts for any repair made to

tool. Repairs should only be performed by properly trained
persons.

Do not lock, tape or wire the tool valve in the "on/off"
position.

Do not allow the exhaust air to come in contact with hot
surfaces or flames.

Avoid inhaling dust or handling debris from the work
process, which can be harmful to your health. Use dust
extraction and wear respiratory protective equipment when
working with materials which produce airborne particles.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer
and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:

- Lead from lead based paints

- Crystalline silica 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: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.

Additional Safety Warnings

Do not modify this tool or its accessories.
Daily measure the air tool speed with tachometer to make

sure it is not greater than the RPM stated on the backing
pad, drum or abrasive.

This tool is not recommended for use in explosive
atmospheres or underwater use.

Operators and maintenance personnel must be physically
able to handle the bulk, weight, and power of this tool.

This tool is for professional use only.

Instruction Manual

This tool is designed for sanding and polishing. No other use
is permitted.

Air Supply Requirements

Tool is designed to operate at 90 psi (6.2 bar) at free speed
measured at the tool, of clean, dry air. Operating this tool at
higher pressures will drastically reduce the tool life and could
cause injury.

The air inlet thread on this tool is a standard 1/4" NPT.
Line pressure should be increased for any unusually long
air hose run (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should
be 3/8" I.D. and all fittings should have the same inside
diameter. See diagram below for proper air supply setup.

Lubrication

Lubricate the tool each day after use with quality SAE #10
air motor oil. Add the oil to the air inlet or into the hose at the
nearest connection to the air supply, then run the tool until
all excess oil is expelled from the exhaust. Total oil quantity
needed for this procedure is approximately 1 ounce. If using an
air line lubricator adjust to two drops per minute.
