hose for the dust collector directly to the dust nozzle.
Sanding operation (Fig. 9, 10 & 11)
CAUTION:
• Secure the workpiece with clamps, etc. if there is any
possibility of it moving during the work operations.
• The tool should not already be in contact with the work-
piece surface when you turn the tool on or off. Other-
wise a poor sanding finish, damage to the belt of loss of
control of the tool may result.
• When working with the tool, be very careful to avoid
any contact of the tool and belt with any part of your
body or anyone or anything near you.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Turn the tool on and
wait until it attains full speed. Gently apply the tool to the
workpiece surface and move the tool forward and back.
Press the belt only lightly on the workpiece. Excessive
