SANDING

Clamporotherwisesecureyourworkpiecetopreventitfrommovingunderthesander

while being sanded.

WARNING: Anunsecuredworkpiececouldbethrowntowardtheoperatorcausinginjury.

Placethesanderontheworkpiecesothatthecompletesandpapersurfaceisincontact

withtheworkpiece.TurnthesanderONasdescribedabove.Movethesanderslowlyover

workpiecemakingsuccessivepassesinparallellines,circles,orcrosswisemovements.

Because the orbital motion of the sanding pad moves in tiny circles, it is not necessary to

move the sander with the grain or in the same direction for successive passes.

Upon completion of the sanding operation, turn the sander OFF by pressing on the

opposite side of the ON/OFF switch. Wait until the sanding pad comes to a complete

stopbeforeremovingitfromtheworkpiece.

WARNING:

Your sander should only be turned ON when the entire surface of the

sandingpadisincontactwiththeworkpiece.Failuretofollowthissandingprocedure

could result in loose sandpaper which could result in possible injury.

NOTE: Hold the sander using the grip on top of the sander. Be careful NOT to cover the

motor cooling vents with your hand. Motor damage may occur from over heating if the

cooling vents are covered.

DO NOT FORCE THE SANDER. The weight of the sander usually provides adequate

pressure.Letthesanderandthesandpaperdothework.Applyingaddedpressurewill

slow the motor, increase the wear on the sandpaper and greatly reduce the sander speed.

Motordamagemayoccurifexcessivedownwardpressureisapplied.Itwillalsocreatean

inferiorfinishonsandedwork.Anyfinishorresinonwoodwillsoftenfromthefrictionalheat,

causingthesandpapertobecomecloggedveryquickly.Donotsandinonespottoolong

asthesander’srapidactionmayremovetoomuchmaterial,makingthesurfaceuneven.

Extendedperiodsofsandingmaytendtooverheatthemotor.Ifthisoccurs,turnsander

OFF, wait until the sanding pad comes to a complete stop and remove it from the

workpiece.Checktomakesureyourhandhasnotbeencoveringthecoolingvents.Let

the motor cool before continuing the sanding operation.
