•
Clockwise will increase the
sanding speed.
•
Anticlockwise will decrease the
sanding speed.
2. Squeeze the trigger against the
body of the tool to start and
evaluate its speed.
3. Rest the disc pad on the workpiece and start the sander. Let the tool do
the work.
•
The actual weight of the machine is normally sufficient for efficient
sanding. Do not put additional pressure on the machine, which would only
slow down the speed of the pad, reducing efficiency and placing an
additional burden on the motor.
4. Pass the sander back and forth in wide, overlapping areas, taking care to
keep the sander moving around at all times. Avoid dwelling in one place
for more than a moment.
5. Release the trigger to stop the tool.
6. Always ensure the tool has stopped before putting it down.
DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. Do not disconnect the air supply hose until the compressor has been shut
down and the compressed air pressure released.
2. Once the pressure has been released, disconnect the air supply hose from
the tool.
STORAGE
1. Store the tool safely in its box in a dry, secure environment.
2. When storing, ensure the blanking plug is replaced on the airline
connector once the airline has been disconnected.
