Maintenance - Storch Spider Handbuch

Assembling the handle (optional):
1. Loosen the 2 thumb screws (05) and remove
the clamp cap (04).
2. Place the handle in the desired position on the
column.
3. Clamp the handle in place by replacing the
clamp cap and tightening the 2 thumb screws.
SANDING OPERATIONS
1. Once the sander, the vacuum cleaner, and all sa-
fety equipment have been set up, switch on the
vacuum cleaner first and then the sander. (When
using a vacuum cleaner with integrated switch,
such as STORCH VacTec 25 or VarioVac 50, set
the switch to the "Automatic" position first and
then switch on the tool.)
2. For sanding, press the sanding head as lightly as
possible against the surface to be processed, just
enough to keep the sanding head flat against the
surface.
3. The integrated joints enable the sanding head to
follow the contours of the work surface.
4. The best technique is to use overlapping sanding
tracks while keeping the sanding head in constant
motion. Never linger too long at one place in
order to avoid spiral sanding marks. As you gain
experience, it will be easier to achieve excellent
results.
NOTE: Make sure that the utilised
sanding medium is suitable for the
particular application. Overly coarse
grit may result in uncontrolled stock
removal. In contrast, overly fine grit will
clog too often and result in insufficient
stock removal.
WARNING: Avoid contact with pointed
objects, nails, etc. Such objects ruin the
sanding medium and may even damage
the foam hook-and-loop sanding pad.
Caution

MAINTENANCE

Clean the wall and ceiling sander re-
gularly.
Regularly blow out all air passages with
dry compressed air. Clean all plastic
parts with a soft, damp cloth. NEVER
clean plastic parts with solvents. Sol-
vents can dissolve or otherwise damage
Caution
the material.
Wear safety goggles while working with
compressed air.
Clean the swivel connector of the va-
cuum cleaner, as too much dust will
prevent it from turning freely.
