MACHINE SET-UP

1. Familiarize yourself with the machine. Read all danger,

warning, and caution statements and the Owner's Manual

before operating this machine. If you or your operator

cannot read English, have this manual explained fully

before attempting to operate this machine.

2. Install dust bag support to the exhaust bracket (figure 1).

Place opening of dust bag over dust bag support and

exhaust bracket; cinch and tie securely to exhaust bracket.

3. Remove belt guard (figure 2.1-a). Position extension over

motor and start thumb screw (figure 2.1-b). Position drive

belt in lower most set of grooves on motor pulley as

shown in figure 2.2-a (for the kick-toe extension with 7"

dia. pad.) The upper most set of grooves are reserved for

use with all other attachments. Tension drive belt, then

tighten thumb screws. Rotate pad driver to inspect

position of drive belt in motor pulley and pad driver belt

grooves.

CAUTION: Rapid belt wear will occur if both strands

of the drive belt do not run in their respective grooves on

the pad driver and motor pulley.

4. Install belt guard.

5. Remove screw and abrasive retainer. Center abrasive on

pad and secure with abrasive retainer and screw. (Figure

2.2-b)

6. Return machine to upright position and tilt machine back

on casters until it comes to rest on the exhaust bracket.

Machine will be in a reclined position. Do not allow

machine to rest on pad especially after use, or compres-

sion set may take place within elastomer on pad. This will

create a flat spot and bounce during use.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Move machine to the location of your work. Set any

exposed nails with hammer and punch to avoid encoun-

ter with abrasive. Connect the supply cable to an

appropriately grounded and fused circuit.

WARNING: Bodily injury could occur if power is applied to the

machine with the power switch already in the

"ON" position. Always check to assure that the

power switch is in the "OFF" position before

applying power to the power cable.

2. Make sure the control switch is in the "Off" position then

connect the supply cable to the motor pigtail. (Figure 3)

3. With the machine in the reclined position firmly grasp

both handles and flip the control switch to the "ON"

position.
