Precautions To Take When Sanding Paint

1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to

the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest

danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant women.

2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains

lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the following

precautions when sanding any paint:

PERSONAL SAFETY

1. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area

where the paint sanding is being done until all clean up is

completed.

2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering

the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or whenever the

wearer has difficulty breathing.

NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead paint

dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting masks do not

offer this protection. See your local hardware dealer for the proper

N.I.O.S.H. approved mask.

3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work

area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers

should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking.

Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the work

area where dust would settle on them.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the

amount of dust generated.

2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with

plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.

3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint

dust outside the work area.

1. Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching tool to the work

surface.

2. Apply minimum pressure to

work surface, allowing the tool to

operate at high speed. Sanding

rate is greatest when the tool

operates at high speed.

3. Maintain a 5° to 15° angle between

the tool and work surface. The

san ding disc should contact

approximately 1" (25.4 mm) of

work surface.

4. Move the tool constantly in a straight line to prevent burning and

swirling of work surface. Allowing the tool to rest on the work

surface without moving, or moving the tool in a circular motion

causes burning and swirling marks on the work surface.

5. Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off. Allow

the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.

MOUNTING AND REMOVING HUBBED WHEELS (FIG. 15)

Hubbed wheels install directly on the 5/8"-11 threaded spindle.

Thread of accessory must match thread of spindle.

1. Remove backing flange by pulling

away from tool.

2. Thread the wheel on the spindle (E) by

hand.

3. Depress the spindle lock button and

use a wrench to tighten the hub of the

wheel.

4. Reverse the above procedure to

remove the wheel.

NOTICE: Failure to properly seat the

wheel before turning the tool on may result

in damage to the tool or the wheel.
