Switching on and off
1. Connect the plug to the power
supply.
2. Push the on/off switch (1)
forward to start the motor.
CAUTION. Make sure the tool is
not resting on any surface when
it is switched on.
3. Pull the on/off switch (1)
back to stop the motor.
4. Hold the tool securely and make sure that you have full
control at all times.
Fitting a sanding sheet
WARNING. Always ensure
that the tool is switched off and
the plug is removed from the
power point before making any
adjustments or maintenance
procedures.
1. Before fitting sandpaper,
remove any dust or debris from
the hooks and loops of the base.
2. Match the holes in a suitable sheet with the holes in
the base.
3. Simply press the sheet to the base to attach it.
4. To remove the sheet, peel it away from the base.
TIP. To ensure you maximise the life of the hook and loop
base, carefully peel off the papers rather than rip them off
quickly as this will break the loops and eventually lessen the
effectiveness of the grip.
CAUTION. Take care to regularly clean out the build up of
dust on the base underneath the sandpaper and not to let
the sandpaper wear completely down before replacing it.
Failure to observe these two precautionary measures can
lead to damage to the hooks and loops on the platen and
the sandpaper will not attach properly.
5. Ordinary (non-Hook & Loop type) sanding sheets can
also be used.
6. Release the paper clamp (5) from both sides of the sander.
7. Insert the end of the sandpaper under one clamp and pull
the paper tight over the base (4) ensuring the holes align
with those in the base and then clamp the other side.
8. The paper should be kept tightly clamped over the base,
otherwise there could be excessive wear of the base
material.
WARNING. Never use the sander unless the entire base is
fitted with sandpaper or another type of pad.
Dust extraction
WARNING. Always ensure
that the tool is switched off and
the plug is removed from the
power point before making any
adjustments or maintenance
procedures.
1. Attach the dust extraction
canister (3) to the sander
by pushing and twisting the
bayonet fitting in a similar action to inserting a light globe
into a lamp socket.
TIP: For optimum dust extraction, remove and empty the
canister (3) when it is no more than half full.
2. Remove the cap from the
end of the canister (3) to
access the internal bag
when you wish to replace or
clean the bag. The bag can
be washed. Make sure the
bag is completely dry before
replacing it.
