SUPPLY – FIG.2
Whip hose:
To connect the air sander to an air line, a ¼”BSP
male thread whip hose will be required. The
connection must be tight for an airtight union.

sanding sheets. Simply align the edges of the
sanding sheet with the backing pad and press
together firmly.

to pierce the sheet in the appropriate areas. This
will aid with dust removal, reducing the hazard.
