In addition, it might cause the sander to jump on the work. Let the sander do the work. FINE FINISHING The action of the Porter-Cable Finishing Sander causes thousands of tiny abrasive grits to move in circular orbits against the work at high speed. Each grain moves in the same direction at a constant speed so the cutting action is uniform over the entire pad surface. Crossing and re-crossing of the abrasive grits from all directions quickly levels surface irregularities to a fine, uniform smoothness. Start the work with an abrasive grit just coarse enough to remove the high spots and excessive roughness. Follow with a second sanding using a grit one or two grades finer. Continue with successively finer grits until the desired finish is obtained. DO NOT GO FROM A COARSE GRIT TO A VERY FINE GRIT IN ONE STEP. Going from a coarse grit to a very fine grit in one step could make it difficult to remove swirl marks that might have been made by the coarse grit abrasive. Use the finest grits practical for the roughing operation and then finish by using successively finer grits. REMOVING PAINT AND VARNISH CAUTION: Read and follow all instructions in the ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL section of this manual. Your sander will do a good job of removing old paint and varnish if two precautions are taken. First, be sure to use a coarse, open coat abrasive to avoid the usual clogging of the abrasive surfaces. Second keep the machine moving over new areas to avoid heating and softening the material being removed. Try to work the entire surface down at the same time by working in A Fig. 3 8 wide, overlapping arcs. Do not concentrate on small areas. If liquid removers or heaters are used to speed the work, be sure the surface is cool and dry and the excess material has been scraped away with a putty knife or other suitable scraping tool before applying the sander. CABINETS AND DOORS The orbital motion of the Porter-Cable Finishing Sander is ideally suited for finishing doors, cabinet fronts and other installations where wood grain is often perpendicular to that of a joining piece. Since the motion is circular, the machine may be moved in any direction and crossed from one part to the other without regard to direction of grain. A uniform and smooth finish will result on both parts. The same procedure may be used when evening joints in all types of cabinet work. The sander may be worked on both sides and in all directions to obtain a smooth, matching joint. By properly changing from coarser to finer grit abrasives, an excellent finish will result. RUBBING AND POLISHING The finishing sander is excellent for all types of polishing and rubbing on flat or round surfaces. Felt rubbing pads, available as accessory equipment can be quickly attached for rubbing operations. With it, metal parts, enameled surfaces and woodwork may be polished. Use rouge or paste wax for polishing with the finishing sander. MAINTENANCE KEEP TOOL CLEAN Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material. CAUTION: Wear safety glasses while using compressed air. FAILURE TO START Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers in the line. LUBRICATION This tool has been lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. No further lubrication is necessary. BRUSH INSPECTION AND LUBRICATION For your continued safety and electrical protection, brush inspection and replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by an AUTHORIZED PORTER-CABLE SERVICE STATION or a PORTER-CABLE/DELTA FACTORY SERVICE CENTER. At approximately 100 hours of use, take or send your tool to your nearest authorized Porter-Cable Service Station to be thoroughly cleaned and inspected. Have worn parts replaced and lubricate with fresh lubricant. Have new brushes installed, and test the tool for performance. 9 Any loss of power before the above maintenance check may indicate the need for immediate servicing of your tool. DO NOT CONTINUE TO OPERATE TOOL UNDER THIS CONDITION. If proper operating voltage is present, return your tool to the service station for immediate service. SERVICE AND REPAIRS All quality tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts due to wear from normal use. These operations, including brush inspection and replacement, should ONLY be performed by either an AUTHORIZED PORTER-CABLE SERVICE STATION or a PORTER-CABLE/DELTA FACTORY SERVICE CENTER. All repairs made by these agencies are fully guaranteed against defective material and workmanship. We cannot guarantee repairs made or attempted by anyone other than these agencies. Should you have any questions about your tool, feel free to...
