MAINTENANCE
Your D
WALT power tool has been designed to
E
operate over a long period of time with a minimum
of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
injury, turn unit off and disconnect
machine from power source before
installing and removing accessories,
before adjusting or changing
set-ups or when making repairs.
Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF

Replacing the Sanding Pad and the
Speed Limiter Disc (fi g. 4)
Both the sanding pad (d) and the speed limiter disc
(j) are consumable parts.
The sanding pad needs replacement when signs
of wear become evident. The speed limiter disc
needs replacement when the sanding pad speed
increases dramatically when lifting the sander off the
workpiece.
1. Unplug the tool.
2. Loosen the screws (k) and remove the pad.
3. Replace the sanding pad (d) and/or speed
limiter disc (j) and tighten the screws (k), making
sure the speed limiter disc is aligned properly.

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
Cleaning
NOTE: After the tool is used in metal sanding
applications without dustbag, clean the tool using
low-pressure air.

dirt is seen collecting in and around the
air vents. Wear approved eye protection
and approved dust mask when
performing this procedure.
WARNING: Never use solvents or
other harsh chemicals for cleaning the
non-metallic parts of the tool. These
