Smart Select Technology - Figure K
This sander is fitted with a smart select dial
(2) which depicts various sanding
applications. They are used to select the
proper operating mode for your particular
sanding application.
Step 1:
Using the Smart Select dial (2)
choose the application that you are going to
perform; detail sanding (3), corner sanding
(4), flush sanding (5), random orbit sanding
(6).
Step 2:
Once your application is selected,
the window below (7) will recommend the
correct base that should be used and
identifies the corresponding sanding speed
(which is automatically set for you).
Step 3:
Snap on the recommended base
(using the picture and color recommendation in window 7).
Note:
You can override the speed at anytime by moving the Smart Select dial clockwise
for increased speed.
Automatic brake system (ABS)
This tool has an automatic brake system. When the tool is not on the work surface, this
feature keeps the speed of the disc below the speed of the motor. When the tool is
switched off, the disc will stop very quickly.

linseed oil, etc.) can self-ignite in sander dust canister or elsewhere and cause fire. To
reduce risk, empty canister frequently and strictly follow sander manual and coating
manufacturer's instructions.
