1500W Sander Polisher
Polishing tips
• Ensure the area to be polished is clean and dry
• Choose only polishing compounds that are compatible with the material
to be polished, and with the method of application. Read and understand
all information supplied with your polishing compound before use
• If using polishing sponges, apply polishing compound evenly to the
polishing sponge and place the sponge against the work surface
• Hold the machine securely, using both hands, by the handles provided.
The polishing sponge should make only light contact with the work
surface
• Switch on the machine and work across the surface using a wide
'sweeping' motion. Stop and apply extra compound as required
• When the entire surface has been covered, stop the machine and allow
the compound to dry (follow manufacturer's guidance)
• Attach a clean polishing bonnet to the machine and work across the
surface as before, until all visible polishing compound is removed
Sanding tips
WARNING: This machine is primarily designed as a polishing tool. It is
suitable for light duty sanding tasks, e.g. fine sanding as a preparation to
polishing, but it has not been designed to remove large amounts of material.
Use a different type of sander, e.g. a belt sander, should this be required.
WARNING: NEVER use this machine for wet sanding.
WARNING: ALWAYS use adequate respiratory protection when sanding.
• Allow the machine to reach the required speed before bringing the
sanding paper into contact with the workpiece
• Start with a coarse grit paper and work through progressively finer grit
papers until the desired finish is achieved
• Apply only moderate pressure to the sander. Pressing too hard onto the
work surface may overheat the motor or damage the work surface
• Sand evenly over the work surface. The machine works in a rotary
motion so it is not necessary to work with the grain
• Only use the sander 'flat on' to the work. Tilting the sander onto its edge
will damage the workpiece

Accessories

• A range of accessories for your sander polisher, including polishing
sponges and lambswool bonnets, sanding sheets and polishing
compounds, is available from your Silverline stockist. Spare parts can be
obtained from www.toolsparesonline.com
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before carrying
out any inspection, maintenance or cleaning.
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight
• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear.
Repairs should be carried out by an authorised Silverline service centre.

Cleaning
WARNING: Be especially careful to clean the machine thoroughly if used for
both wood and metal. Sparks from metal work can easily ignite wood dust.
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts
to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of
your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry,
compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do
not use alcohol, petrol or strong cleaning agents
