ATTACHING VACUUM HOSE
When the canister is removed from the tool,
an (optional) vacuum hose accessory can be
attached to the dust port. To use this feature,
attach vacuum adapter(s) and vacuum hose
(optional accessories) to dust port, then
connect opposite end of the vacuum hose to
a shop vacuum cleaner (Fig. 7).
ROCKER "ON/OFF" SWITCH
TO TURN THE TOOL "ON" or "OFF": Push
IN the switch rocker to the left or right side of
the tool. Always hold the sander off the work
when turning the switch "ON" or "OFF".
ABRASIVE SHEETS (SANDPAPER)
Aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, or other
synthetic abrasives are recommended for
power sanding use. Natural abrasives, such
as flint or garnet sheet are too soft for
economical use in power sanding. For best
results, use Bosch abrasive sheets: The
uniform spacing between grains minimizes
filling or loading. The high quality aluminum
oxide sheet with heavy backing cuts faster
and lasts longer.
The following are recommended abrasive
sheets and applications:
Coarse Grit: For rough wood sanding.
Medium Grit: For general wood sanding.
Fine Grit: For smoothing wood or
plaster patches.
Extra Fine Grit: For final sanding bare
wood and smoothing
old paint.
There are also different types of paper made
for wood, paint and other surfaces.
Operating Instructions
Abrasive sheets can be purchased pre-sized
or can be conveniently cut from large-size
commercially available sheets (standard size:
9" x 11-1/16" or 228 x 280mm). Cut into four
pieces of equal size as shown (Fig. 8).
Choose the proper grit for the job.
