7. USING THE SANDER 

(See Fig13)

The workpiece to be sanded must be secured. If 

it is small or it may move during sanding, it must 

be held in a vice or suitably clamped.  

Be sure to hold the sander firmly whilst it is on 

and  apply  it  gently  to  the  work,  it  may  “kick” 

on first contact. Hold the sander so that it is flat 

on  the  work  and  move  slowly,  preferably  with 

a  smooth,  circular  motion.  Regularly  check  the 

condition of the sanding paper and replace when 

worn for best results.

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR 

SANDER

1. Your  sander  is  useful  for  working  on  wood, 

metal,  painted  surface.  It  will  smooth  surfaces 

prior  to  painting,  even  where  fillers  have  been 

used and left proud.

2. Your sander is best suited to large flat areas such 

as doors but can also be used on skirting boards, 

windows, etc, provided they are accessible.

3.  Different  types  of  sanding  paper  will  allow 

the  sander  to  meet  various  needs.  Different 

grades of sanding paper are available, the higher 

grade number, the finer the grit. For rough work 

start with a low grade of grit (i.e. 60 grade) and 

change  to  a  higher,  finer  grade  (i.e.  100  or  120) 

for  finishing.  If  you  use  a  fine  grade  for  rough 

surfaces it will soon clog and need changing.

4. At all times, let the sander do the work-do not 

force it or apply excessive pressure to the sanding 

paper or it could wrinkle or tear. Preferably, use a 

light circular motion.

5. If the surface shows excessive making from the 

abrasive motion, you may be using a grit which is 

too coarse or applying too much pressure.

MAINTENANCE

1.  Your  power  tool  requires  no  additional 
lubrication  or  maintenance. There  are  no  user 
serviceable parts in your power tool.
2. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean 
your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.
3. Always store your power tool in a dry place.
4. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean.
