5.1 APPLICATION TIPS
ATTENTION!
• Always sand from left to right! This ensures that the left-
hand lateral wheel always runs over the newly sanded
surface, making the surface more even with each sanding
step and preventing waviness!
• One sanding path consists of a forward and reverse
sanding motion on the same path without displacement!
• We advise a sanding path displacement of 50%!
•
Deep sanding marks due to the selection of a too coarse grit
can be prevented by starting the first sanding operation with
the finest grit possible.
•
Carry out a test sanding operation using a 50 or 60 grit (a few
test sanding paths). If this test is satisfactory and you envis-
age a good sanding result within a reasonable period, it is
more efficient to start the sanding work with these finer grit.
•
Prevent sanding marks made by previously used grit sizes
by respecting the grit sequence and never skip more than
one grit size.
•
Vacuum the floor thoroughly always directly
before each
work step (every sanding step, gap filling or surface treat-
ment).
•
Clean the wheels of the machine before starting each work
step.
•
In the case of roll abrasives, care should be taken to ensure
that the abrasive always has a tear-resistant paper backing
(“E” weight paper).
•
For centrifugal sanding drums, use only sanding sleeves
with a tear-resistant cloth backing (no paper backing), a
blunt (non-overlapping) sinusoidal closure bonded with foil.
This prevents chatter marks on the floor and tearing of the
sanding sleeve.
