Working hints for your sander
1.
Your sander is useful for working on wood, metal, painted surface. It will smooth
surfaces prior to painting, even where fillers have been used and left proud.
2. Your sander is best suited to large flat areas such as doors but can also be used on
skirting boards, windows, etc, provided they are accessible.
3. Different types of sanding paper will allow the sander to meet various needs. Different
grades of sanding paper are available, the higher grade number, the finer the grit. For
rough work start with a low grade of grit (i.e. 60 grade) and change to a higher, finer
grade (i.e. 100 or 120) for finishing. If you use a fine grade for rough surfaces it will
soon clog and need changing.
4. At all times, let the sander do the work-do not force it or apply excessive pressure to
the sanding paper or it could wrinkle or tear. Preferably, use a light circular motion.
5. If the surface shows excessive making from the abrasive motion, you may be using a
grit which is too coarse or applying too much pressure.
Maintenance
1. Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are no user
serviceable parts in your power tool.
2. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry
cloth.
3. Always store your power tool in a dry place.
4. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean.
5. If you see some sparks flashing in the ventilation slots, this is normal and will not
damage your power tool.
6. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly
available from the manufacturer or its service agent.
