Intended Use

• Rotating dual-mode sanding/polishing machine, designed for sanding

and polishing of wood, plastics, metals, composite materials,

paint/varnish, ﬁllers and similar materials, using compatible accessories like sanding discs

and polishing sponges/bonnets.

WARNING: This machine may only be used for dry sanding applications; it is unsuitable

for wet sanding.

Unpacking Your Tool

• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all its features and

functions

• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing

or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool

Before Use

Fitting the backing pad

WARNING: Always disconnect from the power supply before removing or attaching the

backing pad.

Note: This sander is supplied with its regular Hook and Loop Backing Pad (2) factory pre-

installed. It may, however, become necessary to remove and replace the backing pad, in order

to ﬁt replacements, perform maintenance or to thoroughly clean the device.

1. Switch the device into ﬁxed orbit mode (see ‘Selecting sanding mode’)

2. Remove the Sanding Disc (1) (if ﬁtted), by peeling it off the Hook and Loop Backing Pad (2)

3. Use a suitable hex key (not supplied) to loosen the bolt in the centre of the Hook and Loop

Backing Pad, by turning it anticlockwise

4. Remove the bolt, spring washer and washer

5. Pull the Hook and Loop Backing Pad off the gear housing

6. For cleaning purposes, also remove the rubber collar (see Fig. A)

7. Assemble in reverse order

Please note that:

• the rubber collar has a ﬂattened notch, which is a form ﬁt with the ﬂattened part of the

gear housing (see Fig. B),

• the Hook and Loop Backing Pad is a form ﬁt to the two ﬂattened sides of the internal

mounting spindle (see Fig. C)

Selecting the right grade of sanding disc

• Sanding discs are available in a variety of different grades: coarse (60 grit), medium (120

grit) and ﬁne (240 grit)

• Use a coarse grit to sand down rough ﬁnishes, medium grit to smooth the work, and ﬁne

grit to ﬁnish off

• Always use good quality sanding discs to maximise the quality of the ﬁnished task

• It is advisable to do a trial run on a scrap piece of material to determine the optimum

grade of sanding disc for a particular job. If there are still marks on your work after

sanding, try either going back to a coarser grade and sanding the marks out before

recommencing with the original choice of grit, or try using a new sanding disc to eliminate

the unwanted marks before going on to a ﬁner grit and ﬁnishing the job

Fitting a sanding disc

WARNING: Always ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is removed from the

power supply, before ﬁtting or removing sanding discs.

Note: DO NOT continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding discs. Ensure foreign

objects, such as nails and screws, are removed from the workpiece before starting to sand.

WARNING: DO NOT use a sanding disc on wood that has previously been used on metal.

This may cause scouring on the wooden surface.

• In order for the dust extraction system to function, this Triton sander must only be used

with punched sanding discs with holes that match the holes in the Hook and Loop Backing

Pad (2):

1. Remove the old Sanding Disc (1) (if ﬁtted), by peeling it away from the Hook and Loop

Backing Pad (2)

2. Remove any dust or debris from the Hook and Loop Backing Pad

3. Match the holes in a suitable disc with the holes in the Hook and Loop Backing Pad

4. Simply press the disc on to the pad to attach it

Note: To maximise the life of the hook and loop base, peel the sanding disc off slowly rather

than rapidly removing it to avoid damage to the hook and loop system.

WARNING: Take care to regularly clean out the build-up of dust on the base underneath

the sanding disc and not to let the disc wear completely down before replacing it. Failure to

observe these two precautionary measures can lead to damage to the hooks and loops on the

base, and the sanding disc will not attach properly.

Adjusting the auxiliary handle

• Height and position of the Auxiliary Handle (5) can be adjusted to adapt the tool to different

work positions and to match user preference:

(see image 1):

1. Loosen the handle clamping mechanism by lifting the Auxiliary Handle Adjustment Lever

(4)

2. Adjust the handle height as required, and rotate the handle to the desired position

3. Tighten the Auxiliary Handle Adjustment Lever to lock the Auxiliary Handle in its new

position

Dust extraction

Note: This sander is designed to be connected to a household vacuum cleaner hose or

workshop dust extraction system. This is the preferred and most effective method of dust

extraction.

WARNING: Always ensure that the tool is switched off and disconnected from the power

supply before attaching or removing any accessories.

WARNING: Always connect the sander to a suitable vacuum cleaner or workshop dust

extraction system if the sanding dust contains harmful substances, such as particles from

old paint, varnish, surface coatings etc. ALWAYS dispose of harmful dust according to laws

and regulations.

WARNING: Take special care to guard against harmful and toxic dusts when sanding

lead-based painted surfaces, woods and metals, particularly if you are unsure about the exact

substances involved. All persons entering the work area must wear a mask specially designed

for protection against the toxic dust and fumes involved. Children and pregnant women MUST

NOT enter the work area. DO NOT eat, drink or smoke in the work area.

• Push a suitable vacuum hose on to the Dust Extraction Port (10). The Dust Extraction Port

is designed to ﬁt a 32mm diameter hose

Selecting sanding mode

WARNING: NEVER attempt to operate the Mode Selector Switch (3) whilst the tool is

running. This will cause tool damage.

• This Triton sander features two sanding modes, which can be selected over the Mode

Selector Switch (3) (see images 2 and 3):

1. Lift the orange latch and use it to turn the Mode Selector Switch

2. Turn the Mode Selector Switch either clockwise or anticlockwise until it stops

3. Push the orange latch sideways into the locked position, as shown on the images below

WARNING: DO NOT switch on the tool when the Mode Selector Switch is in between

settings, or if the orange latch has not been locked. This will cause damage to the gears.
