Connecting the vacuum hose (Fig. 6)
Inhalation of dust is hazardous to health! When carrying out the work which
can produce dust, please always wear a dust mask.
Connect the hose (16) to the exit (connector (22)) of the handle.
The other end of the hose is connected to the vacuum cleaner

Adjustment of the telescopic shaft (Fig. 7)
Turn locking knob (19) anticlockwise to open the locking mechanism.
Adjust the telescopic shaft to the desired length.
After adjustment turn locking knob (19) clockwise to fix the length settings.
8 OPERATION
Always hold the drywall sander with both hands! Keep your hands away
from the sanding head. Otherwise, your hand could become caught, as the
sanding head swivels in different directions.
Attach sanding pad
Attach sanding tool
Set power tool to the required length
Connect dust extraction system
Insert mains plug
Switch on the device.
Press the drywall sander gently against the work surface (the pressure should be just
enough to ensure that the sanding head is flush with the work surface.)
8.1
Starting and stopping tool
Make sure that the power circuit voltage is the same as that shown on the specification plate
of the machine and that switch (12
) is “OFF” before connecting the tool to the power circuit.
8.2
Switching the machine on and off
Turn on/off the drywall sander by switch
9 SANDING OPERATIONS
Once the machine and vacuum cleaner are set up and all safety measures and equipment are
in place, begin by turning on the vacuum cleaner and then the machine. (If you are using a
vacuum cleaner with integrated switching, then simply turn the machine on.)
9.1
Round sanding head (Fig. 8)
Begin sanding and carefully contact the work surface as lightly as possible-just enough to
keep the sanding head flat against the surface.
The pivot point in the sanding head allow the sanding disc (7) to follow the contours of the
work surface.
The best technique is to use overlapping sweeps and keep the head in constant motion.
Never stop too long in any one place or there will be swirl marks. With experience it will be
very easy to create excellent results.
