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  
NIOSH/OSHA 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.

continued  
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 jewelry. Keep your  
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,  
jewelry 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.  
5
 
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
1. Hold power tools by 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. Sanding of lead-based paint is not recommended. Lead-based paint  
should only be removed by a professional.  
3. Always maintain a firm grip on the sander handles with both hands to  
prevent loss of control.  
4. Do not operate sander without all guards and covers securely in place.  
5. 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.  
6.  
Use of this tool can generate and disburse dust or other  
airborne particles, including wood dust, crystalline silica dust and  
asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate  
tool in well ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use dust  
collection system wherever possible. Exposure to the dust may cause  
serious and permanent respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a  
serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and  
avoid prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or  
eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful material.  
Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection  
appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and  
water.

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.

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 THE ABRASIVE  
The best finishes can be achieved by selecting the proper type of abrasive.  
coarser grit abrasives will remove the most material while finer grit abrasives  
will produce the best finishes.  
Achieve best results by selecting the proper size and type of abrasives.  
Start the work with an abrasive grit just coarse enough to remove high spots  
and excessive roughness. Follow with a second sanding using a grit one or  
two grades finer. Continue using successively finer grits until the desired  
finish is obtained.  
ATTACHING PAD OR PROFILE MOUNTING PLATE  
All of the accessory pads and profile mounting plates are attached to the tool  
in the same way. Each pad or mounting plate has two posts (A) Fig. 7 used  
to attach it to the Profile Sander.  
One pad post fits into a pocket (B) Fig. 7 in the tool, and the other post is  
locked into place by a tab (C) Fig. 7. The mounting post area (of all the pads  
and mounting plates) is symmetrical. The pad (or mounting plate) can be  
attached to the Profile Sander with either end forward, which allows the use  
of both pointed ends of each sheet of pad abrasive, and permits the profile  
holders to be mounted in the best position for each particular application.

ATTACHING PROFILE TO MOUNTING PLATE  
Individual profiles may be mounted to either the Single Profile Mounting Plate,  
or the Angled Profile Mounting Plate (Figs. 11 and 12). The individual profiles  
are pressed into the slot on the mounting plate by hand, and can be removed  
from the mounting plate by pulling outward on one end of the profile.  
Fig. 12  
Fig. 11  
ATTACHING ABRASIVES  
Three different types of abrasives that can be used with the Profile Sander  
are:  
HOOK & LOOP SHEETS: These are precut sheets with hook & loop backing  
and dust extraction holes. This abrasive is used with the diamond shaped  
Hook & Loop Pad. Align the abrasive with the sander pad and press into place  
with the palm of your hand. Use a light twisting motion to lock the hooks into  
the loops. To remove abrasive, lift one corner with your fingernail and peel it  
off. These abrasives may be removed and reattached several times.  
PSA SHEETS: These are precut sheets with pressure sensitive adhesive.  
Precut diamond shaped sheets are available to fit the optional diamond  
shaped PSA Pad. Precut rectangular sheets are available to fit all of the  
individual profiles. Peel the protective sheet from the back of the abrasive.  
Align the abrasive with the sander pad and press firmly into place. To remove  
abrasive, lift one corner with your fingernail and peel it off. Discard the used  
abrasive.  
PSA ROLLS: These are 21/2" wide rolls with pressure sensitive adhesive. This  
abrasive is used with the individual profiles and with the extended “shutter”  
pad. Unroll a strip of abrasive to fit the particular profile (or pad), and cut to  
length with scissors. NOTE: For best results, the abrasive should cover all of  
the exposed profile below the profile holder. Firmly press the abrasive in  
place on the profile (or pad). To remove abrasive, lift one corner with your  
fingernail and peel it off. Discard the used abrasive.  
NOTE: PSA Pads and Profiles must be clean for the abrasives to adhere  
properly. Clean the pads and profiles with soap and water.  
PSA Adhesives work best at temperatures above 25° F. If PSA abrasives,  
pads, or profiles are stored at lower temperatures, warm them before use.  
Store PSA Pads in a dust-free environment to prevent contamination of the  
adhesive.  
13  
 
ATTACHING OPTIONAL DUST WAND  
NOTE: A wide variety of accessories, including a dust wand, is available for  
this tool. Please refer to your Porter-Cable Catalog to determine if the dust  
wand is supplied as standard equipment with your particular tool package.  
The dust wand is available as an accessory, and may be used with any  
Porter-Cable Model 444 Profile Sander.  
The dust wand requires an external vacuum source (shop vac or dust  
collection system). To attach dust wand to sander:  
1. Insert dust wand pin (A) Fig. 13 into hole (B) Fig. 13.  
2. Thread knob (C) Fig. 14 into tool, and tighten firmly.  
3. Connect the dust wand to your vacuum source with a 1" vacuum hose.

TO START AND STOP SANDER  
The tool is equipped with a “rocker” type switch (A) Fig. 15 labeled “ON” and  
“OFF”.  
1. Depress “OFF”. Check to see that the power circuit voltage is the same  
as that shown on the specification plate.  
2. Connect Sander to power circuit.  
3. While holding Sander firmly, and off the work surface, depress “ON”.  
4. When you are finished sanding, lift the tool off the work and depress  
“OFF” to stop the tool.  
SPEED CONTROL (444VS only)  
Model 444VS is equipped with a variable speed control. Operating speed is  
adjustable between 2100 SPM (Strokes Per Minute) and 6000 SPM.  
Speed is adjustable by turning thumbwheel (B) Fig. 15A. Thumbwheel  
position #1 provides the slowest operating speed (2100 SPM) and position  
#6 the fastest (6000 SPM). Speed may be changed while motor is running or  
while stopped.

USING THE SANDER  
The Porter-Cable Profile Sander has been designed for one-hand operation  
(Fig. 16). The sander can be easily guided over the work surface with one  
hand. The normal weight of the machine is sufficient for efficient sanding.  
Additional pressure on the tool will slow down the speed of the pad, reduce  
the sanding efficiency, and put an additional burden on the motor.  
The Profile Sander uses an “in-line” sanding motion. To achieve the best  
surface finish, sand “in-line” with the wood grain. Faster removal rates can  
be achieved by operating the sander across the grain while working out  
rough areas, and then finishing by sanding with the grain.  
Fig. 16  
FINE FINISHING  
The action of the tool causes thousands of tiny abrasive grits to move  
against the work at high speed. Each grain moves in the same direction and  
at a constant speed, causing the cutting action to be uniform over the entire  
pad surface. 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.  
15  
 
REMOVING PAINT AND VARNISH  
Read and follow all instructions in the  
“ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL”  
section of this manual.  
To remove old paint and varnish:  
1. Use a coarse, open coat abrasive to avoid the usual clogging of the  
abrasive surfaces.  
2. Keep the machine moving over new areas to avoid heating and  
softening the material being removed.  
Try to work the entire surface at the same time by working in wide, over-  
lapping arcs. Do not concentrate on small areas. When using liquid  
removers or heaters to speed the work, scrape away all excess paint or  
varnish with a putty knife or other suitable scraping tool, and allow the wood  
to be cool and dry before sanding.  
DOORS AND MOLDINGS  
The “in-line” motion of the Profile Sander is ideally suited for use in the  
recessed corners and on the intricate profiles found on moldings and raised-  
panel doors. The diamond shaped pads make sanding the recessed corners  
easy, while the wide variety of available sanding profiles allow you to exactly  
match each detail of intricate molding configurations.
