160W DETAIL SANDER
4. ATTACHING SANDING SHEETS AND PADS
This sander features an easy hook and loop
accessory fastening system for quick changing
without clamps.
1) Unplug the sander.
2) Carefully centre the sanding sheet or pad over the
base to be used. Line up the tip of the sanding sheet
or pad with the tip of the base.
3) Press the sheet or pad firmly in place.
4) To remove sheet or pad, simply pull it off (See Fig.
2, 3).
(5) See section 8 on the changing of the sanding
bases.
Warning:
Failure to unplug the sander could
result in accidental starting causing possible
serious personal injury.
5. SANDING WITH EITHER bASE
Move the sander in long, sweeping strokes across
the sanding surface. Light pressure is all that is
needed for sanding, polishing and scrubbing. Let
the sander do the work. Check your work often.
This sander removes material quickly (See Fig. 4).
Important: Applying excessive pressure will slow the
sander and produce unsatisfactory results.
6. SANDING TIPS
Do not force the sander. The weight of the sander
supplies adequate pressure. Let the sander and
the sandpaper does the work. Applying additional
pressure will only slow the motor wear the
sandpaper out faster and reduce sander speed.
Excessive pressure will overload the motor and
cause possible damage to the sander from the
motor overheating. Excessive pressure will also
result in inferior work.
Any existing finish or resin on wood may soften from
the heat of the friction.
Do not sand in one spot for too long a time because
the sander’s rapid action may remove too much
material and make the surface uneven.
