WARNING:
When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
GENERAL
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial solvents
and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to
remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage,
weaken, or destroy plastic.
When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars,
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster, it has been
found that they are subject to accelerated wear and possible
premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and grindings are
highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutator, etc.
Consequently it is not recommended that this tool be used for
extended work on any fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling
compounds, or plaster. During any use on these materials, it
is extremely important that the tool is cleaned frequently by
blowing with an air jet.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication
is required.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles, or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust.
If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power.
To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool overheating,
use an extension cord that is heavy enough to carry the
current the tool will draw. Follow the recommended cord
sizes on the chart provided to determine the minimum wire
size required in an extension cord.
Extension Cord Length Wire Gauge Size (A.W.G.)
0-100 Feet 16
When working with your tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use and so marked. Outdoor use
extension cords are marked with the letters "WA" on the
cord's jacket.
CAUTION:
Keep extension cords away from the sanding area and
position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber,
tools, etc., when sanding.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged,
replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord
since touching the damaged area could cause electrical
shock resulting in serious injury.
