GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: Read and understand all warnings, cautions and operating instructions before using
this tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in personal injury and tool damage.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
4. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
4. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes and hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce the risk of
personal injury.
3. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
4
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
4. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
5. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
5. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
6. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-
count the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

1. TOOL PURPOSE. This sander is designed to sand wood or wood-like products only. Sanding or grinding
other materials could result in fire, injury, or damage to the workpiece. Using the machine for any other pur-
pose for which it is not designed may result in serious injuries, machine damage and voiding of the warranty.
2. MACHINE MOUNTING. For operation safety, the sander must be securely mounted onto a flat and stable
surface or stand.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY.
• Always wear ANSI Z87.1-approved glasses with side shields, hearing protection and a dust mask.
• DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry, as they might get drawn in by the tool. Tie back long hair.
• DO NOT wear gloves while operating this machine.
4. ELECTRIC CORDS. Keep cords away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts of the tool. Have an
electrician replace or repair damaged or worn cords immediately.
5. TOOL & ACCESSORIES INSPECTION. Before operation, check the tool and accessories for any damage or
missing parts. Do not use the tool if any part is missing or damaged. Make sure all adjustments are correct
and all connections are tight. Keep all guards in place.
6. SANDING ACCESSORIES.
• Do not use sanding sleeves or drums that are damaged, torn, or loose. Replace worn or damaged sanding
sleeves before operation.
• Always unplug the unit before making adjustments or changing sandpaper, rubber drums or throat plates.
• Always use the throat plate that matches the diameter of the drum to minimize the gap between the drum
and the throat plate opening; this will reduce the risk of personal injury.
7. WORKPIECE REQUIREMENTS.
• Only stand workpieces sturdy enough to withstand the force of the sanding spindle.
• Inspect the workpiece for imperfections, nails, staples, etc. before sanding. Never sand stock that has ques-
tionable imperfections or embedded foreign objects.
• When sanding a large workpiece, provide additional support. Do not sand with the workpiece unsupported.
• Sand only one workpiece at a time.
8. PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position prior to plugging
in the machine. Always make sure the power switch is in the OFF position and the machine is unplugged
when doing any cleaning, assembly, setup operations, or when not in use.
9. Do not operate this tool until it is completely assembled and installed according to the instructions.
10. Remove scrap pieces and other objects from the table and sanding sleeve before turning ON the sander.
SPECIFIC RULES FOR THE SPINDLE SANDER
WARNING: Do not let comfort or familiarity with the product replace strict adherence to product
safety rules. Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.

SPECIFIC RULES FOR THE SPINDLE SANDER
11. FEEDING THE WORKPIECE.
• Allow spindle to reach full speed before feeding the workpiece. Do not turn on the machine while the sand-
ing sleeve is contacting the workpiece.
• Be aware of the direction of the spindle’s rotation (counterclockwise). Only feed the workpiece AGAINST the
rotation of the spindle.
• Firmly hold the workpiece and lightly ease it against the spindle. Do not forcefully jam a workpiece into
the sanding surface.
12. DO NOT TOUCH MOVING PIECES. Keep hands away from the drum during operation. If cleaning is nec-
essary, use a brush to remove sawdust and chips instead of your hands.
13. Never perform layout, assembly or set-up work on the table while the sander is operating.
14. TURNING OFF THE TOOL. After turning off the sander, wait until the spindle comes to a complete stop
before touching the workpiece or leaving the work area.
15. Always turn off and unplug the machine before cleaning, making adjustments or changing attachments.
Accidental start-ups may occur if the tool is plugged in during an accessory change or adjustment.
16. CLEANING. Never use solvents to clean plastic parts. Solvents could dissolve or otherwise damage the
material. Use only a soft damp cloth to clean plastic parts.
17. PART REPLACEMENTS. Should any component of your sander be missing/damaged or fail in any way,
shut off the switch and remove the plug from power supply outlet. Replace the missing, damaged, or failed
parts using only identical replacement parts before resuming operation.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may
contain chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.
• 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 with approved safety equipment such as dust
masks specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
These safety instructions can’t possibly warn of every scenario that may arise with this tool,
so always make sure to stay alert and use common sense during operation.

1. EXAMINE EXTENSION CORD BEFORE USE. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good
condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
2. DO NOT ABUSE EXTENSION CORD. Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect
by pulling on plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product
from the extension cord. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet
areas.
3. USE A SEPARATE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT FOR YOUR TOOL. This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge
wire and should be protected with a 15A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power
line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current
stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table
below shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and ampere rating. When in doubt, use a
heavier cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
AMPERAGE REQUIRED GAUGE FOR EXTENSION CORDS
25 ft. 50 ft. 100 ft. 150 ft.
3.5A 18 gauge 16 gauge 16 gauge 14 gauge
GUIDELINES AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENSION CORDS
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
IMPORTANT: Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by a qualified service personnel using identical replacement parts. Always use original
factory replacement parts when servicing.
1. POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has 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 proper outlet. Do not
modify the machine plug or the extension cord in any way.
2. GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION (GFCI) should be provided on the circuit or outlet used
for this power tool to reduce the risk of electric shock.
3. SERVICE AND REPAIR. To avoid danger, electrical appliances must only be repaired by qualified service
technician using original replacement parts.
DOUBLE-INSULATED TOOLS
The tool’s electrical system is double insulated where two systems of insulation are provided.
This eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. Double insulated tools do
not need to be grounded, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. All exposed
metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.

UNPACKING
With the help of a friend or trustworthy foe, carefully remove the sander from the packaging. Make sure to
take out all contents and accessories. Do not discard the packaging until the sander is completely assembled.
TOOL PURPOSE
Spindle sanding is the preferred method of removing material from inside curves and irregular edges. The
oscillating spindle moves up and down as it rotates to help smooth workpiece surfaces quickly and evenly.
Refer to the diagram below to become familiarized with the parts and controls of your spindle sander.
CLEANING THE WORK TABLE SURFACE
Your sander's work table comes protected with a layer of anti-rust coating. Clean the rust-protected surfaces
using a soft cloth, moistened with kerosene. Do not use gasoline, or cellulose-based solvents such as paint
thinner or lacquer thinner, as these will damage the painted surfaces.
After cleaning, apply a coat of paste wax to the table to prevent rust. Wipe all parts thoroughly with a clean,
dry cloth.
