Changing a Sanding Sheet
The sanding sheet (1) and sanding pad (2) are
provided with a hook and loop attachment
system to allow quick and easy changing of
sanding and polishing sheets.
Ensure the hook and loop surfaces of the
sanding pad tool plate, and chosen sheet are
as clean as possible, and free from any large
debris prior to mounting the sheet.
NOTE
To attach a new sheet:
m
Align the edge of the disc with the edge of
the pad, and ensure the sheet is centered in
the plate.

Apply pressure to the disc, ensuring it is
securely fixed across the entire sanding pad.
To remove a disc:
m
Lift one corner of the sheet and pull off from
the sanding pad tool plate.
Dust Suction
m
Efficiency and durability of sandpaper are
much improved by dust suction through the
apertures in the disc and sandpaper.
m
The dust collector bag (9) is a push fit onto
the dust extractor pipe (4).
m
Dust collector bag must be emptied
regularly.
m
Ensure waste from the dust bag is disposed
of as per local regulatory guidelines.
Dust Extractor Pipe (4)
m
For sanding jobs that generate increased
levels of dust, use a vacuum cleaner.
m
Disconnect the dust collector bag and
connect a pipe from your vacuum cleaner
instead.
Before using the power tool on metal
surfaces, always remove the dust bag from
the outlet. Sparks may ignite the dust or the
bag.
WARNING!
Prior to any assembly, adjustment or cleaning
operations, always disconnect the power
tool either from the power supply or
remove the battery as appropriate.
