TO INSTALL A SANDPAPER DISC
1.
Unplug the machine.
2.
Peel away the worn out sandpaper disc, leaving the sponge backing pad in place.
3.
Carefully center the new sandpaper disc and press into place. It will be held securely by the hook and
loop backing.
NOTE: The sponge pad has 2 different hook profile types. The black side is finer hook, the white side is
coarser hook. Choose the side which adheres best to your sandpaper.
TO REPLACE THE HOOK AND LOOP SPONGE PAD
The sponge pad must be perfectly flat to get good sanding results. If it is deformed or damaged it will cause
very uneven sanding. Always replace it when damaged. It is hook and loop on both sides, so to Replace it,
peel it away from the hook and loop on the Sanding Plate Base and, taking great care to keep it perfectly
centered, affix a new one.
The Brush Bristles on the edge of the Sanding Plate Cover
The brush bristles on the edge of the Sanding Plate Cover serve two
purposes, they keep the sanding disc properly aligned with the work
surface without gouging and they also help the efficiency of the dust
collection by the vacuum cleaner. These brush bristles will wear with
continued use.
The Sanding Plate Cover should be replaced when the bristles are too
worn to ensure effective dust collection and stabilization of the sanding
head.
To replace the cover, follow these steps
Hold the sanding plate in one hand and with the other, using the L-hex
wrench (supplied), first break free the center bolt clockwise . Then only
use the L-hex wrench to hold the center bolt from turning and spin off the
sanding plate counterclockwise.
Then, press the cover down against the spring and, using snap-ring pliers,
remove the circlip which holds the sanding plate cover to the bracket.
Finally, carefully work the vacuum hose free then lift sanding plate cover
away. Replacement is the opposite of removal. Don't forget the spring.
Entrust all repairs to an authorized service center.
