Switching on and off
To start the machine, press the ON/OFF switch at the end marked with “_”; to stop the
machine, press the switch at the end marked “o”. (Fig.1-2)
WARNING! The sander is designed for dry sanding only and under no circumstances

Using the compact orbital sander
WARNING! Never use the sander unless the entire base is fitted with sandpaper.
The sander is designed for sanding wood, metal, plastic and similar material. It can be used
for sanding and finishing the surfaces.
1. Switch on the sander before you place it on the work piece and move it over the surface to
be smoothed in a circular motion.
2. Take care to hold the sander with its base parallel to the surface of the workpiece, and use
only moderate pressure.
3. If there are still marks on your work piece after sanding, try either going back to a coarser
grade paper and sanding the marks out before resuming with the original choice of grade, or
try using a new piece of sandpaper to eliminate the unwanted marks before going on to a finer
grade and finishing the job.
Warning
!
Wear safety goggles, a dust mask and hearing protection. The whole sanding pad
must rest on the work piece.
Installing or removing battery pack.
1. To remove the battery pack, withdraw it from the tool while depressing the tabs (Fig.2)
on both sides of the battery pack.
2. To insert the battery pack, align the ribs on the top of the battery with the grooves in
the housing and slide it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in place with a
little click. Lightly pull on the battery pack to ensure it is locked into place and will not
accidentally fall out of the tool, causing an injury.
3. Do not use force when inserting the battery pack. If the battery does not slide in easily,
it is not being inserted correctly.
