SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS 1. Hold tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator. 2. Use proper safety equipment. Wear safety goggles for eye protection, wear hearing protection, and wear a protective mask to minimize breathing in the fine dust created while sanding. 3. Sanding of lead-based paint is no

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL Extreme care should be taken when removing paint. The peelings, residue, and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage. Young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable. Before beginning any paint removal process you should determine whether the paint you are removing contains lead. This can be done by your local health department or by a professio

MOTOR Many Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60 cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that shown on the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are designed for A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper voltage and current rating. Do not operate your tool on a current on which the voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C. only on D.C. current. To do so ma

SELECTING AN ABRASIVE BELT The principle abrasive materials used on belts for machine sanding are aluminum oxide and silicon carbide. Aluminum oxide is the softer of the two, but is tougher and more suited for woods and soft (non-ferrous) metals. Silicon carbide is extremely hard and is best suited for surfacing stone, marble, and glass. Abrasives are classed as open-coated (with grits spaced apart), or closed- coated (with grits close together). Closed coatings provide hard, fast cutting action

REMOVING OLD PAINT AND VARNISH Read and follow “ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL” section of this manual. Your sander is an excellent tool for removing old paint and varnish from flat surfaces. However, two problems are common: 1) sanding material that loads the abrasive and, 2) friction heat caused by working too long in one place. To overcome the loading problem, use a coarse grit open coat abrasive belt and a single stroke action. Overheating can be avoided by using a fairly quick st

BE CAREFUL when sanding at the end of a board. Keep the tool level and flat on the work surface. Don’t let the front of the tool drop. (Fig. 6). If this happens, it will round the edge. Fig. 6 Your sander will work very fast and can do a thorough job in a fraction of the time required by hand sanding. Do not rush the job. Give every surface a thorough sanding with each grade of abrasive before changing to finer grits. Always use the abrasive material and grit size recommended for the particular

LUBRICATION This tool has been lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. No further lubrication is necessary. FRAME PROTECTOR The frame protector bar is made of hardened steel. It is located to the left and the rear of the idler pulley and is fastened to the frame. This bar protects the frame of the tool when tracking the abrasive belt. Adjust the belt so that it moves evenly across (without rubbing) the protective bar
