SANDING OPERATIONS
Once the machine and vacuum cleaner are set up and all safety measures and
equipment are in place, begin by turning on the vacuum cleaner and then the
machine. (If you are using a vacuum cleaner with integrated switching, then simply
turn the machine on.)
Round sanding head ⑥
- Begin sanding and carefully contact the work surface as lightly as possible-just
enough to keep the sanding head flat against the surface.
- The pivot point in the sanding head allow the sanding disc to follow the
contours of the work surface.
- The best technique is to use overlapping sweeps and keep the head in constant
motion. Never stop too long in any one place or there will be swirl marks. With
experience it will be very easy to create excellent results.
Ensure that the sanding disc you are using is suited to the task. Overly
coarse grit paper may remove material too quickly to control. While
overly fine grit paper may clog too often and not shape down the
surface.
Take care to avoid sharp projections and nails, etc. This will wipe out the
sandpaper and probably damage the sponge pad as well.
