BACKING PAD INSTALLATION
The random orbit sander is equipped with a
backing pad of soft hardness, which is suitable
for general service. Hard and extra-soft pads
are available for other purposes, and in
general are used as follows;
Extra soft pad - Polishing or sanding large or
curved surfaces.
Soft pad - All purpose general sanding and
polishing.
Hard pad - Heavy sanding on flat surfaces,
especially with coarser abrasives.
This sander is unique in that it can accept
either 5" or 6" (Bosch) pads.
To change backing pad, hold pad firmly and
remove the screw using a 5 mm hex wrench
that secures the backing pad and remove old
pad. Align new pad over drive gear on drive
spindle. Attention: always be sure the teeth
on the drive gear engage into the openings on
the backing pad. Replace screw and securely
tighten. Damaged or worn backing pads must
be replaced immediately (Fig. 2).

Assembly
The random orbit sander uses hook-and-loop
backed accessories, which firmly grip the pad
when applied with moderate pressure. To
change the accessory, merely peel off the old
accessory, remove dust from the pad if
necessary, and press the new accessory in
place (Fig. 3). Be sure to align the sanding
disc holes with the holes in the backing pad to
allow the dust extraction system to function.

BACKING
After considerable service the pad surface will

become worn, and the pad must be replaced
when it no longer offers a firm grip. If you are
experiencing premature wearout of the pad
hooks, it may be due to pressure being applied
to the tool during operation.
