General Safety Instructions for All Tools
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite acci-
dents.
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.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or mod-
ify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrical-
ly malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity
away from the user. Applicable only to Class I (grounded) tools.
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double Insulation eliminates
the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
Applicable only to Class ll (double insulated) tools.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an out-
let. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”
or “W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury,
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that
is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and bal-
ance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, chang-
ing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools,
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other
condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before
using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on anoth-
er tool.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or mainte-
nance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
Additional Specific Safety Instructions for Sanders
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning
label. Accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury.
Do not use this sander as a grinder. Proper guards for grinding are not available for this
tool.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
Before using, inspect recommended accessory for cracks or flaws. If such a crack or
flaw is evident, discard the accessory. The accessory should also be inspected whenever
you think the tool may have been dropped.
When starting the tool (with a new or replacement accessory installed) hold the tool
in a well protected area and let it run for one minute. Never start the tool with a person
in line with the accessory. This includes the operator.
•In operation, avoid bouncing the accessory or giving it rough treatment. If this occurs,
stop the tool and inspect the accessory.
Always use Side handle. The side handle should always be used to maintain control of the
tool at all times.
Clean out your tool periodically. Dust and grit containing metal particles often accumu-
late on interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other con-
struction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other repro-
ductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
lead from lead-based paints,
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
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.

5. With your finger firmly on the spindle lock (Fig. 3 A), tighten the outer flange with the pin
spanner supplied (Fig. 3 B).
6. Release the spindle lock. You can now plug the tool in and start work.
7. To remove the backing pad, follow the instructions in reverse order.
Operation
Switch (Fig. 4)
To start the tool, squeeze the trigger switch (A). To turn the tool off, release the switch.The tool
can be locked on for continuous use by holding the trigger switch depressed while you depress
the switch locking button next to the trigger (B). Hold the locking button in as you gently release
the trigger. Release the locking button and the tool will continue to run. To turn the tool off from
a locked on condition, squeeze and release the trigger once.
IMPORTANT: When using the tool for sanding, allow only a segment of the disc to contact the
work and refrain from high-pressure application.(Fig. 5)
Precautions To Take When Sanding Paint
1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of controlling the
contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant
women.
2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains lead without a chemical analy-
sis, we recommend the following precautions when sanding any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
a. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is being
