Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

Operazzjoni Ġenerali:

• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including eye, hearing, and respiratory protection.
• Ensure the workpiece is free of nails, screws, or other foreign objects that could damage the sanding surfaces.
• Turn the sander ON using the power switch. Allow the belt and disc to reach full speed before beginning work.
• Apply light, even pressure when sanding. Excessive pressure can overload the motor and reduce sanding efficiency.

Using the Belt Sander:

• Position the workpiece firmly against the belt and the work table.
• Move the workpiece smoothly across the belt to achieve an even finish.
• For sanding inside curves or odd shapes, the removable platen can be detached to expose the belt.
• Adjust the belt work table angle as needed for bevel sanding.

Using the Disc Sander:

• Always sand on the downward-rotating side of the disc (left side when facing the disc) to prevent the workpiece from being thrown.
• Hold the workpiece firmly against the disc and the work table.
• Use the deluxe miter gauge for precise angle sanding on the disc.
• Move the workpiece slowly and evenly across the disc surface.

Adjusting Work Tables:

• To adjust the angle of the work tables, loosen the locking knob(s) located beneath the table.
• Tilt the table to the desired angle (0° to 45°) and securely tighten the locking knob(s).
• Use a protractor or angle gauge to verify the angle for precision work.

Manutenzjoni

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your sander. Always disconnect the power before performing any maintenance.

1. Tindif:

• After each use, clean dust and debris from the sander using a brush or compressed air.
• Pay special attention to the dust chutes and motor vents to prevent buildup.
• Do not use solvents or harsh chemicals that could damage painted surfaces or plastic components.

2. Belt and Disc Replacement:

• Ċinturin: To replace the sanding belt, release the belt tension lever (location not specified in input, general instruction). Remove the old belt and install the new one, ensuring the directional arrow on the belt matches the rotation direction of the sander. Re-tension the belt.
