Bosch Power Tools 1293D Sander User Manual


 
Always disconnect the plug
from the power source before
attaching or removing abrasive sheets.
ATTACHING ABRASIVE SHEET
1. To open sanding sheet clamp, pull clamp
lever out of its recess and lower as shown in
(Fig. 2).
2. Place the abrasive sheet (grit side up)
between the clamper grip and the rubber
baseplate 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, lift clamp lever up
and return lever to its original position making
sure the sanding sheet clamp is 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 or tear on the work surface.
After the sanding sheet has been installed, it
will be necessary to punch holes in it with the
punch plate provided. Align the rubber
baseplate with punch plate, and push sander
down firmly until the punch plate pierces the
sanding sheet. Then remove punch plate from
sander (Fig. 3). (See ABRASIVE SHEETS on
page 9.)

ATTACHING PSA “STICK-ON”
ABRASIVE SHEETS
Your sander can also be used with PSA-
backed “stick-on” abrasive sheets
(sandpaper), which have pressure sensitive
adhesive.
1. Peel protective sheet from the back of PSA
sheet.
2. Align PSA sheet with backing pad and
press firmly in place.
Notes:
Make sure that SheetLoc™ System’s rear
clamp lever is latched, even when PSA
abrasive sheets are used.
Remove PSA sheets soon after completing
each sanding operation in order to prevent
the adhesive from creating a hardened
bond with the backing pad.
REMOVING PSA ABRASIVE SHEETS
To remove, lift an edge of accessory with your
fingernail and peel it off the backing pad.
Note: If PSA paper is accidentally left on the
pad, the best way to remove it is to sand for a
few minutes to soften the adhesive backing.
PUNCH PLATE
After the paper has been installed, it will be
necessary to punch holes into the paper using
the punch plate provided with your sander.
Align sander base with punch plate and push
down on sander until punch plate pierces the
paper. Then remove punch plate from sander
(Fig. 3).
