Assembly
2. Place the abrasive sheet (grit side up)
between the clamper grip and base plate while
aligning edges of the abrasive sheet with either
edge of the pad. (Pre-bending the sheet makes
attachment easier.)
3. After inserting the sheet, release pressure on
clamp lever making sure the clamper grips are
secure.
4. Wrap the sheet around the length of the pad
and attach free end of sheet under opposite
clamp and repeat procedures 1, 2, & 3 above.
The abrasive sheet must be drawn as tight as
possible for efficient sanding, as a loose sheet
can slip on the work surface.
After the paper has been installed, it will be
necessary to punch holes into the paper with
the use of the punch plate provided with
your sander. Align sander base with punch

exceptional finishes on wood surfaces, speed
stock removal, or to remove lacquer, varnish,
and other coated finishes.
Orbital sanding provides fast, smooth final fin-
ishes. And this model can sand flush on all
three sides of the tool, to get in tight places
typical of cabinets, desks and shelving.

lacquers, polyurethane, oil or water with
dust particles can occur if there is a static
discharge, spark introduced in the box, or
excessive heat.
