For best results, use a low speed setting
with a fine grit, or when sanding plastics,
ceramics, or removing painted surfaces.
Use a high speed setting with a coarse grit,
and when removing a lot of material.
When sanding wood, work evenly in the
same direction as the grain. Keep the sand-
er moving so the finish stays consistent.
sanding across the grain may be neces-
sary to remove rough spots. this should
be done carefully, as it can produce cross-
grain scratching that may be difficult to
remove.
Change the belt as soon as the grit
becomes dull. to extend the life of the belt,
only apply as much force as necessary.
