A aching Sanding Paper(Fig.1)
Choose the sanding paper according to the material being worked. Use sanding paper with a 40 resp, 60
grain for rough sanding and on uneven surf
aces. Use the finder g
rain of 120 f
or smoother finish.

openings on the base plate. Only this way the sanding dust can be extracted thr
sanding plate.
3. Firmly p
ress sanding paper down on the sanding plate.
Al
ways use abrasive papers suited to the material you want to sand. Then papers must have correct grain
size.
Depending on grain size there are degrees of coarseness. The coar
seness is specified
by a number on the
back of paper
s. The higher the number is, the finer the g
rain.
It is impor
tant to use the right paper for each job. For rough sanding use grain sizes up to 80, f
wood
as larch, pine or spruce use papers from 60grit to 150grit.For dense hardwood as beech or maple, the grain
sizes with up to 220 can be used.
Assembling/Disassembling/Emptying the Dust Bag(Fig.2)
