Polishing tips
• Ensure that 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 your workpiece

Accessories

• A range of accessories for your sander polisher, including polishing
sponges and lambswool bonnets, sanding sheets and polishing

Maintenance
Cleaning
WARNING: ALWAYS wear protective equipment including eye protection and
gloves when cleaning this tool.
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts
to wear quickly, and shorten the device's service life
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. If dry cleaning is not
sufficient, a mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended
• Water must never come into contact with the tool
• Ensure the tool is thoroughly dry before using it
• If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the
ventilation holes (where applicable)
Note: Be especially careful to clean the machine thoroughly if used for both
wood and metal. Sparks from metal work can easily ignite wood dust.
Brushes
• Over time the carbon brushes inside the motor may become worn
• Excessively worn brushes may cause loss of power, intermittent failure,
or visible sparking
• To replace the brushes, remove the Brush Access Panels (11) from both
sides of the machine. Remove the worn brushes and replaced with new.
Replace brush access plugs. Alternatively, have the machine serviced at
an authorised Silverline service centre
Hook and loop surfaces
• Hook and loop surfaces need to be clean, free of dirt and foreign matter,
such as hair, fibres, sand etc.
• In order to provide adequate adhesion for securing accessories, hook
and loop surfaces must be in good condition
• When used extensively, hooks and loops will become elongated or
broken, and the mechanism cannot provide the required strength of
adhesion anymore
Note: This sander's Hook & Loop Backing Pad (8) is NOT a warranty item.
Replacements can be obtained from www.toolsparesonline.com.
Storage
• Store this tool and its accessories in a dry, secure place out of the reach
of children

electronic equipment (WEEE), with household waste
