13. Frequently Asked Questions
WORK HINTS FOR YOUR SANDER
• If your sander becomes too hot, run it at no load (running just the
motor, and not using it) for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor.
• 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 off only after stopping
sanding. For best results, sand wood in the direction of the grain.
• Do not start sanding without sandpaper fitted.
• Do not allow the sandpaper to wear away, it will damage the
base-plate. The product warranty 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 on scrap material.
• Use only good quality sandpaper.
• The sanding efficiency is controlled by the sandpaper not the
amount of force you apply to the tool. Excessive force will reduce
the sanding efficiency and cause motor overload.
• Replacing the sanding paper regularly will maintain optimum
sanding efficiency.
• Do NOT sand asbestos material in ANY form.
• Always wear a dust mask, hearing protection and safety eye
protection during sanding procedures.
• Sand hard-to-reach places using the SDS finger pad (7).
• Check and empty the dust bag (4) at regular intervals.
