Maintenance And Inspection - Hitachi SV 8SA Bedienungsanleitung

1. Switching the sander ON and OFF
The power can be turned on by setting the lever
to ON (1) and turned off by setting the lever to OFF
(0).
CAUTION
Never turn the power switch ON when the sander
is contacting the surface to be sanded. This is
necessary to preclude damage to the material. The
same applies when switching the power OFF.
2. How to hold the orbital sander
While gripping the housing, lightly press the sander
against the surface to be sanded so that the sanding
paper uniformly contacts the surface, as shown in
Fig. 5. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the
sander while sanding. Excessive-pressure may cause
overload of the motor, reduced service life of the
sanding paper, and lowered sanding or polishing
efficiency.
3. How to move the orbital sander
For optimum operating efficiency, alternately move
the sander forward and backward at a constant
speed and balance.
4. After installing new sanding paper
Movement of the sander may tend to become
unsteady after new sanding paper has been installed,
because of the new, coarse grain of the paper. This
can be avoided by slightly tilting the sander forward
or backward during sanding or polishing. Sander
movement will become steady as the sanding paper
surface becomes properly abraded.
MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
1. Attaching a Sponge Pad (Velcro type) or a Stick-
on pad
Loosen the M4 × 10 screws (4) and remove the
attached pad. Next, attach a sponge pad (Velcro
type) or a stick-on pad.
CAUTION
Replace the pad only. Use the other parts without
removing them.
2. Attaching Velcro Type Sanding Paper or Stick-on
Type sanding Paper
Match the sanding paper's hole with the pad's hole
and strongly push the sanding paper with the palm
of your hand to fasten it securely in place.
3. When collecting dust with the Dust Collector (Model
WDE-1200)
By attaching the Dust Collector (Model WDE-1200),
it is possible to carry out clean sanding.
As shown in Fig. 6, attach the adapter, hose and
dust collector in order to the dust outlet.
4. Making a Hole in the Sanding Paper with the Punch
Plate (Fig. 7)
When using sanding paper without holes in it, punch
holes in it with the punch plate to improve dust
collecting capacity.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Empting and cleaning the Dust Bag
If the dust bag contains too much saw dust, dust
collection will be affected. Empty the dust bag when
it gets full.
Remove the dust bag, open the fastener, and dispose
of the contents.
2. Inspecting the sanding paper
Since use of worn-out sanding paper will degrade
efficiency and cause possible damage to the pad,
replace the sanding paper as soon a excessive
abrasion is noted.
3. Inspecting the mounting screws:
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure
to do so could result in serious hazard.
4. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the
power tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the sinding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
5. Servicing
Consult an authorized Service Agent in the event
of power tool failure.
