Keep the Sander in constant motion while the abrasive pad is in contact with
the work surface. Use a steady, sweeping motion. Stopping the Sander on the
work, or moving the Sander erratically can cause unacceptable swirl marks
and unevenness in the work surface.
NOTE: Do not allow rotating abrasive pad to contact sharp
protrusions. Contact with protruding objects (nails, screws, electrical
boxes, etc.), can severely damage the abrasive pad.

abrasive back-up disc (A) Fig. 10 is exposed. Please note that this
back-up disc is also covered with an abrasive material., and is used

Position the new abrasive pad to the back-up disc, and center the hole of the
disc on the hub (B) Fig. 10 of the back-up disc.
