SANDING
This sander can be used for most sanding opera-
tions on materials such as wood,
plastic, metal and painted surfaces. Do not use
the sander for wet sanding.
1. Plug the sander into the power source.
2. Place the sander on the workpiece so that
the sandpaper disc is fully in contact with the
workpiece.
3. Start the sander.
4. For best sanding results, apply light pressure
on the sander, but do not force the tool.
5. Move the sander slowly over the workpiece,
making successive passes in parallel lines, circles,
or crosswise movements. The removal rate and
the sanding pattern are determined by the
choice of sandpaper disc and the work surface.
6. Do not allow the sander to stay on one spot
for too long, as the sander’s rapid action may re-
move too much material and make the surface
uneven.
7. Upon completion of the sanding operation,
remove the sander from the workpiece, turn the
sander off, and wait until it comes to a complete
stop before putting it down.
