Resumen del manual
Put the smooth side of the abrasive against the sanding drum. 9. Put one end of the abrasive against the sanding drum slot (1). See figure 3. 10. Turn the drum one revolution. Put the other end of the abrasive in the drum slot (2). See figure 3. 11. Tighten the abrasive. To tighten the abrasive, follow this procedure: 1. The end wrenches are given with the machine. Put a wrench around the nut at each end of the durm (1). See figure 4. 2. Make sure the flat sides of the nuts are parallel with the drum slot. 3. Turn the wrenches the opposite rotation until the abrasive is tight against the drum (2). See figure 4. 12. Remove the end wrenches. 13. Close the cover. NOTE: When using #4 or 4. grit abrasive, remove the large grains from the folded ends. To remove the grains, rub the folded ends together. Figure 3 Figure 4 AMERICAN SANDERS TECHNOLOGY -American 12 Floor Sander Operator's Manual Page 9 How to Operate the Machine DANGER: Sanding/finishing wood floors can create an environment that can be explosive. Cigarette lighters, pilot lights and any other source of ignition can create an explosion when active during a sanding session. All sources of ignition should be extinguished or removed entirely if possible from the work area. DANGER: Work areas that are poorly ventilated can create an explosive environment when certain combustible materials are in the atmosphere, i.e., solvents, thinners, alcohol, fuels, certain finishes, wood dust and other combustible materials. Floor sanding machines can cause flammable material and vapors to ignite. Read the manufacturer's label on all chemicals used to determine combustibility. Keep the work area well ventilated. DANGER: Sanding dust can spontaneously ignite and cause an injury or damage. Sanding dust should be disposed of properly. Always empty the sanding dust into a metal container. Remove the contents of the dust bag when the bag is 1/3 full. DANGER: Sanding dust can spontaneouslyignite and cause an injury ordamage. Remove the contents of the dust bag each time youfinish using the machine. Always dispose of the dust in ametal container located outside of the building. Never leave a dust bag unattended with sanding dust in it. Do not emptythe contents of the dust bag intoa fire. DANGER: Hitting a nail while sanding cancause sparks and create anexplosion or fire. Always use ahammer and punch to countersink all nails before sandingfloors. Page 10 AMERICAN SANDERS TECHNOLOGY - American 12 Floor Sander Owner's Manual To operate the machine follow this procedure: 1. Install the operator's belt as follows: a. Position the operator's belt around waist. b. Cross the straps at the waist. See figure 5. c. Slide the belt loop end over the handle on the control lever side. Adjust the length as needed. d. Wrap the remaining strap around the opposite side of the handle and hold it in place with your hand. WARNING: Should quick release of the machine be necessary, serious operator injury could occur if the operator has tied the loose end of the operator's belt strap to the machine. Always position the strap so that you can let go and get away quick in case of bag fire or explosion. 2. Put the On/Off switch into the "ON" position. DANGER: Serious damage can occur to the floor surface if the machine is not in motion while the contact wheel is running on the floor surface. To prevent damage to the surface, make sure the machine is always moving when the contact wheel is in contact with the floor. 3. Work right to left. For each forward pass, move the machine 4" over the pass you have just finished. Retrace your reverse path without overlapping. See figure 6. 4. Feather-cut in by easing the contact wheel down onto the surface with the control lever while the sander is in motion. 5. When contact wheel is fully engaged with the surface, gradually adjust your pace for adequate finish removal. Keep sander in motion while the contact wheel is engaged with the surface or dwell marks will occur. 6. Move the machine in the direction of the grain in the wood whenever it is possible. Sand the surface at a constant pace. 7. Gradually feather-cut out at the termination point (the end of your pass) by easing the contact wheel up with the control lever. Stagger the termination points for a better blend when edging. Figure 5 8. Empty dust bag whenever it is 1/3 full. Never leave a dust bag unattended with sanding dust in it. Sanding dust can spontaneously ignite and cause a fire or explosion. Empty dust into a metal container located outside of the building.
