Always hold the sander off the work piece when turning the switch on or off. Run the sander for a
few seconds before contacting the work piece and remove it from the work piece before turning the
switch off.

a heavier grit piece of sandpaper.

Inspect the pad; check it for wear or damage.
Keep the ventilation slots of the motor clean to prevent overheating of the motor. Remove all
dust from the ventilation slits of the motor. Use a vacuum cleaner or a brush.
Electric tools are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure when they are
used to work on fiberglass, wallboard, spackling compounds or plaster. The chips and grindings
from these materials are highly abrasive to electrical tool parts, such as bearings, brushes,
commutators, etc. Consequently, it is not recommended that this tool be used for extended work
