WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR SANDER
1.
Your sander is useful for working on wood, metal, painted surface. It will smooth surfaces prior to
painting, even where fillers have been used and left proud.
2.
Your sander is best suited to large flat areas such as doors but can also be used on skirting boards,
windows, etc., provided they are accessible.
3.
Different typed of sanding belt will allow the sander to meet various needs. Different grades of sanding
belt are available, the higher grade number, finer the grit. For rough work start with a low grade of grit
(i.e. 60 grade) and change to a higher, finer grade (i.e. 100 or 120) for finishing. If you use a fine grade for
rough surfaces it will soon clog and need changing.
4.
At all times, let the sander do the work – do not force it or apply excessive pressure to the sanding belt.
5.
If the surface shows excessive making from the abrasive motion, you may be using a grit which is too
course or applying too much pressure.
