the dust collection holes in the base and sandpaper are
aligned and that the sandpaper is taut on the base.
(2) Lift the paper clamping levers to the open position and insert
the ends of the sandpaper under the clamps.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure work piece is free of nails & other foreign objects
which could tear paper. Your sander starts and stops by
Warning: Be sure to disconnect the plug
from the power source before attaching the
sanding paper.
Warning: Always remove the electric cord from
the power supply when changing paper,
brushes, or when working on the unit.

depressing and releasing the switch. For continuous operation,
press the lock button located on the left side of grip while switch
is depressed. Depress switch to release the lock.
Move the sander evenly over the entire area. The weight of
sander alone is sufficient for normal use. Any excess pressure
will retard the sanding action, giving an uneven finish, and cause
extra wear to both tool and sanding paper.
Never allow sander to stay in one place too long, or excessive
material will be removed. Always start sander before applying it
to the workpiece.
The sander should never be turned off while resting on the work.
Lift sander from work and then turn it off. Do not use sander
without sanding paper, or rubber pad will be damaged. Take
care that your hand does not cover the air vents and make sure
oil or water does not come into contact with the motor.

bag. To attach, insert the plastic insert with the bag attached
