OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before attempting to use this sander, familiarize yourself with all its operating features and safety
requirements.
This sander is designed to sand wood surfaces and to remove lacquer, varnish and other types of
coating on wood.
TURNING ON AND TURNING OFF
To start the sander, push the slide switch forward to the “I” position.
To stop the sander, push the slide switch backward to the “O” position.
ATTACHING SANDPAPER
(fig 1)
1. Unplug the sander.
2. Disengage the paper clamp by pushing the wire
clamp on the side of the sanding pad towards the
sander’s body.
3. Line up the edge of the sandpaper with the edge
of the sanding pad. Insert the sandpaper under the
clamp. To lock the sandpaper in place, engage the
clamp.
4. Disengage the clamp on the other side of the sander.
Stretch the sandpaper tightly over the foam
pad and insert the outer edge under the clamp at the rear of the sand
er.
5. Line up the edge of the sandpaper with the edge of the sanding pad. To lock the sandpaper in place,
engage the clamp.
USING THE PUNCH PLATE

holes into the sheet.
1. Align the punch plate with the sanding pad and push down on the sander until the punch plate
pierces the sandpaper.
2. Remove the punch plate from the sanding pad.
USING THE DUST BOX

SANDING TIPS
•
Starting and stopping the sanding: Contact the workpiece with the tool only after it has reached
full speed and remove it from the work before turning the switch “OFF”. Operating in this manner
will prolong the switch and motor life and will greatly increase the quality of your work.
•
Applying excessive pressure to the sander may result in an uneven sanding job and premature
grit wear. Constant and excessive pressure can cause overheating and possible damage to the
motor, as well as premature wear of the pad.
a. Light pressure: recommended for fine work.
b. Moderate pressure: recommended for rough work.
c. Heavy pressure: does not allow the sand paper to move properly.
•
If the surface is rough, start sanding with a coarse grit, then medium, and then finish with a fine
or extra-fine grit. This procedure will vary with different types of materials and work.
•
Continue to sand with each grit until the surface looks uniform.
•
To remove the greatest amount of stock, use a coarse grit and move the sander steadily over the
entire surface: against the grain, as well as with the grain. DO NOT REMAIN IN ONE SPOT TOO
LONG. It may remove too much material and uneven sanding will result.
•
Sanding with the grain of the wood gives the smoothest final finish.
