INSTALLING A SANDING DISC – cont’d
To remove the sanding disc (1), simply peel the
disc away from the hook & loop pad (2) (Fig. 5).
SANDPAPER SELECTION
Selecting the correct grit and type of sandpaper
is extremely important in achieving a high
quality sanded finish. Aluminum oxide, silicon
carbide and other synthetic abrasives are best
for power sanding. Natural abrasives such as
flint and garnet are too soft for economical
use in power sanding.
In general, coarse grit will remove the most
material and finer grit will produce the best finish
in all sanding operations. The condition of the
surface to be sanded will determine which grit
will do the best job. If the surface is rough, start
with a coarse grit and sand until the surface is
uniform. Medium grit may then be used to
remove scratches left by the coarser grit. Fine
grit should be used for finishing the surface.
Always continue sanding with each grit until the
surface is uniform.
WARNING: Always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shields when
operating your sander. Failure to do so could
result in foreign objects being thrown into
your eyes resulting in possible serious eye
damage.
Always wear an appropriate dust mask and
hearing protection when using your sander.
ON/OFF SWITCH
To turn the switch ON, press the right hand side
of the ON/OFF switch (1) (Fig. 6). To turn the
switch OFF, press the left hand side of the
ON/OFF switch (2).
