Helpful
Hints
• Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held or clamped to prevent
movement. Any movement of the material may affect the quality
of the cutting or sanding finish.
• Do not start sanding without having the sandpaper attached to
sanding platen.
Use coarse grit paper to sand rough surfaces, medium grit
for smooth surfaces and fine grit for the finishing surfaces. If
necessary, first make a test run on scrap material.
Excessive force will reduce the working efficiency and cause
motor overload. Replacing the accessory regularly will maintain
optimum working efficiency.
Do not allow the sandpaper to wear away, it will damage the
sanding pad.
