ELECTRIC
With SurfPrep’s electric sanders, maintenance consists of blowing out your sander with compressed air occasionally, replacing your RFBP (red foam backup pad) and not aggressively pulling the cord from an outlet. You do not need a lot of air pressure to blow out your sander and 10 to 20 pounds of pressure of compressed air should do the trick nicely. Simply blow air into the 4 intake holes on your red backup pad, into the vent on each side of your sander and, after disconnecting your hose from the sander, into the exhaust port. This should all take about 15 seconds.
AIR
SurfPrep’s air (pneumatic) sanders require oiling as all air tools do. Instructions will come with your pneumatic tool showing you where to oil it and how often. It is recommended that you oil your pneumatic tool w/ one drop of lite weight, rust inhibitor tool oil available in an eye dropper bottle every 4 hours of run time.
