Safety Warnings and Instructions: Sanders
• ALWAYS WEAR EYE AND RESPIRATORY PROTECTION.
• Clean your tool out periodically.
S
ANDING
LEAD BASE PAINT
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust. The
greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant women. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a
paint contains lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the following precautions when sanding any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
• No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is being done until all clean up is
completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or
whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing. NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead paint dust
and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware dealer for
the proper (NIOSH approved) mask.
• NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint
particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking
should not be left in the work area where dust would settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
• Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of dust generated.
• Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
• Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work area.
CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
• All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding
project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently.
• Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They
should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of through regular trash pick-up procedures. During
clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept away from the immediate work area.
• All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed thoroughly before being used again.
MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will
cause loss of power and can result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does not operate,
check the power supply.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension cords with the tool
– that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of an
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

DJUSTMENTS
WARNING: To prevent accidental operation, turn off and unplug sander before performing the following
operations. Failure to do this could result in serious personal injury.
3 POSITION HANDLE (FIG. 1A & 1B)
A locking mechanism on the side of the handle can be loosened to allow the handle to move. To adjust the handle, pull
out on the locking arm (FIG. 1) and move the handle to the desired position (FIG. 1A). Once the handle is in position,
push the locking arm in to lock the handle into position.
2 POSITION BELT COVER (FIG. 2 & 3)
The belt sander has an aluminum sanding belt cover at the front. When the handle is positioned in the uppermost
position, this cover can be raised as shown in FIG. 2 (Arrow 1) and locked in this position to:
a. Improve accessibility to narrow areas.
b. Allow the use of the smaller diameter front roller to sand with (normally the aluminum cover prevents this when in
the “down” position).
c. Expose the top part of the belt for more versatile sanding (FIG. 3).
To lower the belt cover, grasp the flange on the side and move it slightly in the direction shown in FIG. 2
(Arrow 2) and return it to its closed position.
Note: The sanding belt cover cannot be locked in its raised position unless the bail handle is in the uppermost position.
WARNING: The sanding belt is exposed when the belt cover is raised. Use extra caution when operating in this mode.
ADJUSTING THE SANDING BELT TRACKING (FIG. 4)
Turn the machine upside down (FIG. 4), hold it firmly with one hand, start motor and release switch immediately after
observing tracking of sanding belt. If abrasive belt runs outward, turn tracking adjustment knob clockwise and
counterclockwise if belt runs inward.
Belt life will be greatly increased by keeping the tracking adjustment set properly (FIG. 4).
CHANGING THE SANDING BELT (FIG. 5 & 6)
WARNING: To prevent accidental operation, turn off and unplug sander before changing the sanding belt.
Pull the lever shown in FIG. 5 to release the tension on the sanding belt. Pull the sanding belt from the two rollers. Put
the new 3” x 21” (76 x 533mm) sanding belt in position on the front and rear rollers (FIG. 6). Ensure that the arrows on
the sanding belt and on your belt sander are pointing in the same direction. Push the lever to the rear to tension the
sanding belt.
DUST COLLECTION (FIG. 7)
WARNING: To prevent accidental operation, turn off and unplug sander before installing the dust bag.
When using your belt sander, dust and grit are produced. It is important to use a dust bag. Connect the dust bag by
sliding the plastic opening of the bag down over the dust exhaust port of the sander as shown in FIG. 7. To empty the
dust bag, remove it from the sander and unzip the bag over a trash container.
NOTE: A vacuum cleaner attachment is available as a service part at extra cost. To find your nearest Black & Decker
Service Center location, refer to the yellow pages directory under "Tools—Electric" or call: 1-800-54-HOW-TO (544-6986).
WARNING: Fire hazard. Collected sanding dust from sanding surface coatings (polyurethane, linseed oil, etc.)
can self-ignite in sander dust bag or elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce risk, empty bag frequently and strictly
follow sander manual and coating manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING: Fire hazard. When working on metal surfaces, do not use the dust bag or a vacuum cleaner
because sparks are generated. Wear safety glasses and a dust mask. Due to the danger of fire, do not use your
belt sander to sand magnesium surfaces. Do not use for wet sanding.
OPERATION
USING YOUR BELT SANDER (FIG. 8)
Always hold belt sander firmly with both hands while sanding as shown in FIG. 8. NOTE: that sander bail handle can be
adjusted to three different positions as previously discussed.
SWITCH (FIG. 9 & 10)
To start your belt sander, depress the on/off switch as shown in FIG. 9. To stop your belt sander release the on/off switch.
For continuous operation, depress the on/off switch then depress the lock-on button (FIG. 10) and release the on/off
switch. To stop your belt sander, depress the on/off switch to release the lock-on button. Release the on/off switch.
HANDY HINTS
• Always start your belt sander before it is in contact with the workpiece and do not switch it off until after it has been
lifted from the workpiece.
• Always hold your belt sander with two hands.
• Where possible, clamp the workpiece to a work bench or similar sturdy surface.
• Use the correct grit sanding belt for your application. The following is a suggested list of belt grits to use with
different materials.

DDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR SANDERS
TOOL CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Never apply excessive force when you use your belt sander. Too much force can result in an overload and cause damage
to the motor or the workpiece. If your belt sander becomes too hot, operate it without load for 2 minutes. Always keep
the air cooling vents clear. To clean your belt sander, proceed as follows:
WARNING: To prevent accidental operation, turn off and unplug sander before performing the following
operations. Failure to do this could result in serious personal injury.
• Use a clean dry paint brush to clear vents and ducts.
• Clean the housings using a clean damp cloth (do not use solvents, gas or turpentine.)
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed
by authorized service centers or other qualified service personnel, always using identical replacement parts.
