• 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.

ASSEMBLY

SECURING THE SANDER TO A WORKBENCH

If sander is to be used in a permanent location, it should be fastened securely

to a workbench via the four securing holes (one on each corner).

1. Mark out the position of the holes.

2. Secure using suitable bolts, washers, and nuts (not supplied).

An alternative method is to fasten the sander to a mounting board.

The board should be sufficient size to avoid tipping while in use. Any good

grade of 3/4" plywood or chipboard will be sufficient.

The mounting board can then be clamped to a workbench when required.

DUST EXTRACTION

1. Connect a suitable dust collector

to the dust extraction port.

• The dust exhaust port has an

internal diameter of 36 mm and

an outside diameter of 39 mm.

NOTE: Even with a dust collection

system, it is necessary to

periodically clean sanding

dust from the recess in the

table. A build up of dust in the

table recess may prevent the belt or spindle from making a complete

oscillation.

WARNING: CONTACT WITH, OR INHALATION OF DUST FROM LEAD BASED

PAINTS CAN ENDANGER THE HEALTH OF THE OPERATOR AND

BYSTANDERS. ALWAYS WEAR A SUITABLE DUST MASK WHEN USING THE

SANDER.
