Installing or removing abrasive disc
Mount the pad onto the spindle. Fit the abrasive disc and
countersunk washer on the pad and screw the clamp screw
clockwise into the spindle.
To tighten the clamp screw, grip the edge of the pad with your
hand, then tighten the screw clockwise with a hex wrench
securely.
To remove the disc, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.
OPERATION
Sanding operation
CAUTION:
Always wear safety goggles or a face shield during
operation.
Never run the tool without the abrasive disc. You may
seriously damage the pad.
Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and then apply the abra-
sive disc to the workpiece.
In general, keep the abrasive disc at an angle of about 15
degrees to the workpiece surface. Apply slight pressure only.
Excessive pressure will result in poor performance and pre-
mature wear to abrasive disc.
