CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65  
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,  
and other construction activities contains chemicals known (to the  
State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some  
examples of these chemicals are:  
lead from lead-based paints  
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products  
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber  
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type  
of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated  
area, and work with approved safety equipment, always wear MSHA/NIOSH  
approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using such tools.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES*  
Read all instructions Failure to follow all  
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or  
serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed  
below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or  
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
1) Work area safety  
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite  
accidents.  
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the  
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create  
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.  
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.  
Distractions can cause you to lose control  
2) Electrical safety  
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any  
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power  
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric  
shock  
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as  
pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of  
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.  
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a  
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock  
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or  
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp  
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk  
of electric shock.  
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord  
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces  
the risk of electric shock.  
3) Personal safety  
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when  
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired  
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of  
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal  
injury.  
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment  
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing  
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.  
c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position  
before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch  
or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES*  
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool  
on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool  
may result in personal injury.  
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This  
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.  
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your  
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,  
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.  
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and  
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.  
Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.  
4) Power tool use and care  
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your  
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the  
rate for which it was designed.  
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.  
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous  
and must be repaired.  
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any  
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such  
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool  
accidentally.  
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow  
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to  
operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of  
untrained users.  
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving  
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the  
power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired  
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power  
tools.  
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools  
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance  
with these instructions and in the manner intended for the  
particular type of power tool, taking into account the working  
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for  
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous  
situation.  
5) Service  
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only  
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the  
power tool is maintained.

verbatim, as required, from the applicable UL60745 3rd edition standard.  
 
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS  
1.  
Hold tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when  
performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden  
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal  
parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.  
2. Use proper safety equipment. Wear safety goggles for eye protection,  
wear hearing protection, and wear a protective mask to minimize breathing  
in the fine dust created while sanding.  
3. Sanding of lead-based paint is not recommended. Lead-based paint  
should only be removed by a professional.  
4. Always maintain a firm grip on the belt sander handles with both hands to  
prevent loss of control.  
5. Do not operate belt sander without all guards and covers securely in  
place.  
6. Wear eye and hearing protection. Always use safety glasses. Everyday  
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. USE CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT.  
Eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1 standards.  
Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI S3.19 standards.  
7. Take precautions against dust inhalation. The dust generated by certain  
woods and wood products can be injurious to your health. Always operate  
machinery in well-ventilated areas, and provide for proper dust removal.  
Use wood dust collection systems whenever possible. Also, use face or  
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Dust mask protection should  
comply with MSHA/NIOSH certified respirator standards. Splinters, air-  
borne debris, and dust can cause irritation, injury, and/or illness.  
8. Some wood contains preservatives which can be toxic. Take extra care  
to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these materials.  
Request and follow any safety information available from your material  
supplier.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL  
Extreme care should be taken when removing paint. The  
peelings, residue, and vapors of paint may contain lead, which  
is poisonous. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause  
irreversible brain and nervous system damage. Young and  
unborn children are particularly vulnerable.  
Before beginning any paint removal process you should determine whether the  
paint you are removing contains lead. This can be done by your local health  
department or by a professional who uses a paint analyzer to check for lead.  
Lead-based paint should only be removed by a professional.  
Persons removing paint should follow these guidelines:  
1. Keep the work area well ventilated. Open the windows and put an  
exhaust fan in one of them. Be sure the fan is moving air from inside to outside.  
2. Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture, clothing, cooking  
utensils, and air ducts. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of  
exposure.  
3. Place drop cloths in the work area to catch any paint chips or peelings.  
Wear protective clothing such as extra work shirts, overalls and hats. Such  
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of exposure.  
4. Work in one room at a time. Furnishings should be removed or placed in  
the center of the room and covered. Work areas should be sealed off from the  
rest of the dwelling by sealing doorways with drop cloths.  
5. Children, pregnant, or potentially pregnant women and nursing mothers  
should not be present in the work area until the work is done and all  
cleanup is complete. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of  
injury.  
6. Wear a dust respirator or a dual filter (dust and fume) respirator mask  
which has been approved by the Occupational Safety and Health  
Administration (OSHA), the National Institute of Safety and Health (NIOSH),  
or the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and replaceable filters are  
readily available at major hardware stores. Be sure the mask fits. Beards and  
facial hair may keep the masks from sealing properly. Change filters often.  
DISPOSABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT ADEQUATE.  
7. Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands, arms, and face  
and rinse mouth before eating or drinking. Do not smoke or chew gum or  
tobacco in the work area.  
8. Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the floors. Use a  
wet cloth to clean all walls, sills and any other surfaces where paint or dust is  
clinging. DO NOT SWEEP, DRY DUST OR VACUUM. Use a high phosphate  
detergent or trisodium (TSP) to wash and mop areas.  
9. At the end of each work session, put the paint chips and debris in a  
double plastic bag, close it with tape or twist ties and dispose properly. Such  
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of exposure.  
10. Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the work area to avoid  
carrying dust into the rest of the dwelling. Wash work clothes separately. Wipe  
shoes off with a wet rag, then wash that rag with the work clothes. Wash hair and  
body thoroughly with soap and water.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

MOTOR  
Many Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60  
cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that shown on  
the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are designed for  
A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper voltage  
and current rating.  
Do not operate your tool on a current on which the voltage is not  
within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C. only on D.C.  
current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.  
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION  
If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to  
prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible  
motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found in  
this section. This table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts  
for 230 volts) at 150% of rated amperes.  
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W-  
A or W following the cord type designation. For example – SJTW-A to indicate it  
is acceptable for outdoor use.

SELECTING AN ABRASIVE BELT  
The principle abrasive materials used on belts for machine sanding are aluminum  
oxide and silicon carbide. Aluminum oxide is the softer of the two, but is tougher  
and more suited for woods and soft (non-ferrous) metals. Silicon carbide is  
extremely hard and is best suited for surfacing stone, marble, and glass.  
Abrasives are classed as open-coated (with grits spaced apart), or closed-  
coated (with grits close together). Closed coatings provide hard, fast cutting  
action for hardwoods and dense metals, while open coatings are more suited to  
soft materials and painted surfaces.  
To obtain the best finish, start with a “COARSE” grade of abrasive and change  
to “MEDIUM” and then to“FINE” as work progresses.  
GENERAL SANDING  
SECURE THE WORKPIECE and maintain a FIRM GRIP on the  
sander. Movement of the sanding belt against the workpiece  
will try to move the work backward and/or the sander forward.  
Verify that the switch is “OFF” before connecting the sander to  
the power circuit.  
1. Hold the sander off the work before starting the motor.  
2. Lower the sander to the work, touching the rear part of the belt first. Level  
the machine when moving it forward.  
3. Guide the machine over the work in overlapping strokes. Allow the sander  
to do the work.  
4. Avoid applying excessive pressure. The weight of the machine is usually  
sufficient for a fast smooth finish. A slight increase in pressure may speed  
removal of material, but too much pressure will slow the motor and  
decrease removal.  
5. Work back and forth over a fairly wide area to obtain an even surface.  
6. Do not let the tool tilt. The edge of the belt can make a deep cuts into the  
surface.  
7. Do not pause in any one spot during the sanding operation. The belt will eat  
into the work and make the surface uneven.  
8. Lift the tool from the work before turning the motor off.  
9. Always be sure that the motor has completely stopped before putting the tool  
down.  
FAST SANDING ON ROUGH WORK  
To smooth a rough surface quickly, use a coarse grit abrasive belt. With the belt  
positioned diagonally across the grain, move the tool in the direction of the grain  
(Fig. 5).  
Overlap the strokes and cover the  
entire surface, working from both  
sides of the board (angle left and then  
angle right.) Smooth the surface by  
guiding the sander back and forth  
with the grain. Change the belt to a  
medium grit and follow the same  
procedure.  
Finish by thoroughly working the grain  
lengthwise. Change again to a fine  
Fig. 5  
grit and repeat. Always finish sanding  
with the grain.  
12  
 
REMOVING OLD PAINT AND VARNISH  
Read and follow “ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT  
REMOVAL” section of this manual.  
Your sander is an excellent tool for removing old paint and varnish from flat  
surfaces. However, two problems are common: 1) sanding material that loads  
the abrasive and, 2) friction heat caused by working too long in one place. To  
overcome the loading problem, use a coarse grit open coat abrasive belt and a  
single stroke action. Overheating can be avoided by using a fairly quick stroke  
and moving to another area quickly. A piece of felt about 1/4" thick can be  
inserted under the shoe for fast spot sanding and for working on stubborn areas  
of paint and varnish  
SPECIAL SANDING PROCEDURES  
Generally, the operator should sand with a back and forth motion. Some  
materials and some types of operations, however, require a different technique.  
In rough sanding, use the tool at an angle. In spot sanding, use the tool with only  
the front pulley touching the surface (especially useful in smoothing excess glue  
from wood joints). On metals, slate, marble, or plastic materials, sanding can be  
done in all different directions because of a lack of grain.  
DOORS AND MILL WORK  
When sanding doors, cabinet frames, sash, storm windows and screens, take  
care to avoid working into the cross grain where one member meets another.  
Notice that the right edge of the belt is visible on the sander. Work carefully  
along the edge where the rail meets the stile. If the joint is slightly uneven, use a  
fine abrasive and very light sanding pressure to smooth it before making  
finishing runs.  
For lengthy work on walls or other vertical surfaces, balance the tool with a  
length of sash cord, two small pulleys, a light wood frame, and a weight that is  
the same as, or slightly less than, the weight of the sander. The frame consists of  
two pieces leaning against a wall with a third piece nailed to their top ends. The  
two pulleys are located so that the weight on one end of the cord will be out of  
the way, but will balance the sander fastened to the other end. When starting  
vertical work, angle the sander so you can see that the belt makes contact with  
the material. As the belt touches, level the machine and make the stroke away  
and to the left. This movement will offset the tendency to cut heavily into the  
work at the start of the stroke.  
GOOD SANDING TECHNIQUE  
Getting to know the sander is most important in obtaining smooth results with a  
minimum of labor. Operators will quickly learn how to start a stroke with a  
sweeping motion to produce the best results. Use a long even stroke without  
additional pressure on the tool. Overlap each stroke and vary the length of  
movement so the results will be even. Always lift the tool from the work before  
starting and stopping the motor.  
13  
 
BE CAREFUL when sanding at the end of a board. Keep the tool level and flat on  
the work surface. Don’t let the front of the tool drop. (Fig. 6). If this happens, it will  
round the edge.  
Fig. 6  
Your sander will work very fast and can do a thorough job in a fraction of the time  
required by hand sanding. Do not rush the job. Give every surface a thorough  
sanding with each grade of abrasive before changing to finer grits. Always use the  
abrasive material and grit size recommended for the particular job.  
SANDING METAL  
Use the Belt Sander to obtain a grained satin finish on metal. A special graphite  
pad is available to replace the steel shoe on the bottom of the sander. The  
softness of this pad aids in blending the graining. The pad is the proper length  
for sanders using a 3" x 24" belt. For sanders using shorter belt lengths, cut the  
pad so that it is the same length as the steel shoe. Replace the steel shoe with  
the graphite pad.  
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE  
For assistance with your tool, visit our website at www.porter-cable.com for a  
list of service centers or call the Porter-Cable help line at 1-800-487-8665.  
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.  
Wear ANSI Z87.1 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.  
14  
 
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.  
FRAME PROTECTOR  
The frame protector bar is made of hardened steel. It is located to the left and  
the rear of the idler pulley and is fastened to the frame. This bar protects the  
frame of the tool when tracking the abrasive belt. Adjust the belt so that it moves  
evenly across (without rubbing) the protective bar. When this bar becomes worn  
and uneven, replace it with a new one (available from your Porter-Cable Service  
Center).  
DRIVE PULLEY  
The rubber-covered drive pulley at the rear of the tool is crowned or tapered  
from the center to either side to make the abrasive belt run true and in line with  
the idler pulley at the front of the tool. After considerable use, the crown will wear  
away and the belt will begin to run off the side of the pulley and cut into the  
guide block or frame. When the crown is worn to this extent, have the drive  
pulley replaced by your Authorized Porter-Cable Service Station. This action can  
be checked each time the abrasive belt is replaced and tracked. After the belt is  
tracked to the front pulley, watch it for a few seconds to see that it runs true and  
stays in place on the back pulley. Avoid getting oil and grease on the rubber  
cover. It will cause it to fail.  
BRUSH INSPECTION  
For your continued safety and electrical protection, brush inspection and  
replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by an AUTHORIZED
