ATTACHING PROFILE TO MOUNTING PLATE
Individual profiles may be mounted to either the Single Profile Mounting Plate,
or the Angled Profile Mounting Plate (Figs. 11 and 12). The individual profiles
are pressed into the slot on the mounting plate by hand, and can be removed
from the mounting plate by pulling outward on one end of the profile.
ATTACHING ABRASIVES
Three different types of abrasives that can be used with the Profile Sander
are:
HOOK & LOOP SHEETS: These are precut sheets with hook & loop backing
and dust extraction holes. This abrasive is used with the diamond shaped
Hook & Loop Pad. Align the abrasive with the sander pad and press into place
with the palm of your hand. Use a light twisting motion to lock the hooks into
the loops. To remove abrasive, lift one corner with your fingernail and peel it
off. These abrasives may be removed and reattached several times.
PSA SHEETS: These are precut sheets with pressure sensitive adhesive.
Precut diamond shaped sheets are available to fit the optional diamond
shaped PSA Pad. Precut rectangular sheets are available to fit all of the
individual profiles. Peel the protective sheet from the back of the abrasive.
Align the abrasive with the sander pad and press firmly into place. To remove
abrasive, lift one corner with your fingernail and peel it off. Discard the used
abrasive.
PSA ROLLS: These are 2
1
/2" wide rolls with pressure sensitive adhesive. This
abrasive is used with the individual profiles and with the extended “shutter”
pad. Unroll a strip of abrasive to fit the particular profile (or pad), and cut to
length with scissors. NOTE: For best results, the abrasive should cover all of
the exposed profile below the profile holder. Firmly press the abrasive in
place on the profile (or pad). To remove abrasive, lift one corner with your
fingernail and peel it off. Discard the used abrasive.
NOTE: PSA Pads and Profiles must be clean for the abrasives to adhere
properly. Clean the pads and profiles with soap and water.
PSA Adhesives work best at temperatures above 25° F. If PSA abrasives,
pads, or profiles are stored at lower temperatures, warm them before use.
Store PSA Pads in a dust-free environment to prevent contamination of the
adhesive.
