ON/OFF SWITCH WITH SAFETY KEY
The keyed ON/OFF switch (Fig. 4) is intended to prevent unau-
thorized use of the sander.
1. To turn the sander ON, insert the safety key into the key slot in
the center of the switch. Lift the switch up to turn ON the sander.
3. To turn the sander OFF, push switch down. Remove the safety
key when the sander has come to a complete stop by gently pull-
ing it out.
WARNING! Remove the safety key whenever the sander is not in use. Place the key in a safe place and out
of the reach of children.
OPERATING THE SPINDLE SANDER
1. Make sure that the machine has been securely mounted, and all
accessories have been properly installed according to the instruc-
tions in the "ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS" section.
2. Plug in and turn ON the sander. Let the spindle reach full speed.
3. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the workpiece for maxi-
mum control. Slowly guide the workpiece against the rotation of
the spindle (Fig. 5).
NOTE: The spindle rotates in a counterclockwise direction. Guide the workpiece from the right to left.
If you guide the workpiece in the opposite direction, the forces of the spinning sanding sleeve will tend to throw or
bounce the workpiece away from the sanding sleeve, possibly resulting in injuries.
4. Maintain downward pressure on the workpiece against the table, gently working it along the sanding sleeve until
the desired curve has been created. Do not force the workpiece against the sanding sleeve.
5. When you are finished, turn OFF the sander and wait for the spindle to come to a complete stop.
6. Remove the safety key and unplug the machine from the outlet. Follow the maintenance instructions on the next
page to clean and maintain your sander.
