Assembly Instructions
Fitting the dust extraction system (Fig2)
The dust extraction system prevents the accumulation of
dirt and high dust loads in the air, and it makes it easier to
dispose of the dust.
1. Insert the dust extraction hose into the mount. Both
interlocking lugs should be snapped into the notches in the
mount
2. To dismantle the hose, carefully press into the notches
with the flat side of a suitable screwdriver. By doing this, the
interlocking lugs are released from the notches and the hose
can be released from the mount.
3. Connect the appliance to a suitable extraction unit or a
suitable vacuum cleaner before commencing on any sanding
operations.
Caution
Dust can be dangerous. Use the dust extraction system to
keep the workplace as clean and safe as possible.
Changing the Abrasive Paper (Fig 3)
The sanding/grinding disk comes with a Velcro fastening
system for attaching the sanding/grinding paper. This
permits new sanding/grinding paper to be attached without
a clamping device. Before attaching a new piece of sanding/
grinding paper, ensure that the Velcro fastener is clean and
free from any dirt or debris. Clean with if necessary.
Place the new sanding/grinding paper on the sanding/
grinding disk. Fix the sanding/grinding paper in place by
pressing it firmly with your hand.

Warning: Avoid accidental starting.
Make sure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging
the mitre sander into a power outlet.

To select the required speed turn the knurled control wheel
on the switch handle.
6. Using the telescopic length extension (Fig 7)
Unscrew the lock for the telescopic length extension
approximately 2-3 turns. The telescopic length extension
can now be pulled out to the desired length. Relock at the
required length by tightening the lock.
