Using The Sander
a) Make sure that there are no nails or other objects in the area to be sanded.
b) Let the sander reach full speed before applying it to the work surface.
c) Do not apply pressure to the sander during use. The weight of the sander alone is
sufficient for normal use
d) Move the sander evenly over the work area. Do not allow the sander to stay in
one place for too long, this will give an uneven finish.
e) Replace worn sanding belts. The performance of your sander is dependant on
the quality of the sanding belts being used.
f)
Remove the sander from the work area before releasing the trigger, (wait until the
belt has stopped moving before putting the sander down).
