Power filing tips
• This power belt file is ideal for intricate sanding and filing tasks at places that are difficult to
access with other tools (see Fig. III)
• Move the machine over the workpiece surface, applying an even, moderate pressure until you
reach the desired surface finish
WARNING: Excessive pressure does not lead to a faster removal of material; it will however
lead to premature wear of the sanding belt, and may cause damage to the machine. Both sanding
performance and quality depend mainly on the choice of the correct sanding belt.
• If there are still scratches on your workpiece after sanding, refer to ‘Selecting the right grade
of sanding belt
Accessories
• A full range of sanding belts and accessories is available from your Silverline stockist
