ROTARY SANDER ENG
always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped
to prevent movement.
any movement of the material may affect the quality of
the sanding finish.
Start your sander before sanding and turn it off only
after you stop sanding. for the best results, sand wood
in the direction of the grain.
do not start sanding without having the sandpaper
fitted.
do not allow the sandpaper to wear away it will damage
the base-plate. The guarantee does not cover base-
plate wear and tear.
use coarse grit paper to sand rough surfaces, medium
grit for smooth surfaces and fine grit for the final
surfaces. if necessary, first make a test run on scrap
material.
use only good quality sandpaper.
The sandpaper controls the sanding efficiency, not
the amount of force you apply to the tool. Excessive
force will reduce the sanding efficiency and cause
motor overload. Replacing the sandpaper regularly will
maintain optimum sanding efficiency.

Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. inspect tool cords periodically
and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service

lubrication or maintenance. There are no user
serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water
or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe

TROUBLESHOOTiNG
1. if your sander will not operate, check the power at the
mains plug.
2. if the sander does not abrade surface, checking the
sanding paper. if the sanding paper has been worn,
replace the new paper and try again. The paper must be
kept in a dry place, if it is allowed to become damp, the
abrasive particles will lose their adhesion to the backing
paper and will not abrade.
3. if the sander does not move smoothly, the sanding
paper may be loose, damaged or wrinkled. Replace and
try again.
4. if a fault can not be rectified return the sander to an
authorized dealer for repair.
