10. OPERATION AND USE
10.1 OPERATION & AIR REGULATION

− To start the sander press down trigger
(1)
, and
release again to slow down/stop the pad.
− To alter the amount of air being fed into the
sander, varying the speed, turn lever

during
operation. Adjust accordingly.
If the pad is a non punched type use a suitable tool
to pierce the sheet in the appropriate areas. This
will aid with dust removal, reducing the hazard.

With the air supply disconnected, lift up the edge of
shroud

to access the orbital mechanism.
− Insert spanner

and locate onto the flats on
the side of the spindle. Hold the spanner while
rotating the pad
(5)
to remove.
− When assembling do not over tighten the
backing pad.
Note: Always ensure the spanner has been
removed before restarting the sander as the result
will cause damage or injury.
