the lever lock position. Press the sanding paper
around the base plate shape as tight as possible
and fix the end under the other sanding paper
clamp. Check the sanding paper is square to
the baseplate .If not correct., remove and refit
it again . Always, ensure the sanding paper is
tight over the baseplate and secured underneath
both locked clamps. This will ensure safe and
efficient sanding performance.
6. CHANGING HOOK & LOOP SANDING
PAPER
The sanding paper and baseplate are provided
with a hook and loop attachment system to
allow quick and easy changing of the sanding
and polishing accessories. Remove any dust
or other objects from the hook and loop on
the baseplate and sanding paper. Position the
sanding paper evenly on the baseplate and
firmly press down to attach them together. If
the sanding paper has dust extraction holes
you must align these with the holes in the
baseplate, otherwise the dust extraction will
not function. To remove the sanding paper lift
one corner of the paper and pull it off from the
baseplate (See C.3).
7. PAPER PUNCH
If using sanding paper without dust holes, use
the paper punch to perforate the holes to ensure
correct dust extraction. Position the punch (10)
over the baseplate with the punch sides on
the edges of the baseplate (See D). Press the
punch into the baseplate to punch holes into
the sanding paper. Then remove the punch and
check all the holes have been formed correctly.
8. DUST BAG
Always operate your sander with the dust bag
fitted. For the best performance always empty
the dust bag in time. Open the zip and empty
the dust from the bag. To remove the bag, slide
the mounting bracket out and away from the
sander (See E.1). To refit the bag, firmly push
the mounting bracket into the location on the
sander housing (See E.2).
9. FLUSH SANDING FACILITY
Your sander can sand flush on three sides of the
baseplate which allows easy access to corners

and edges of mouldings (See F).
10. ORBITAL SANDING
Your sander operates in small circular rotations
which allows efficient material removal. Operate
your sander in long sweeping movements
across your workpiece and even across the
grain. For a finer finish, always use a fine grain
sanding paper and only move the sander in the
direction of the grit and never across the grain.
Do not allow your sander to remain in the same
position otherwise you will remove material
and create an uneven surface.
WORKING HINTS FOR
YOUR FINISHING SANDER
If your power tool becomes too hot, especially
when used at low speed, set the speed to
maximum and run it with no load for 2-3
minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged
usage at very low speeds. Always use sand
paper that is suitable for the material you want
to sand.
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or
clamped to prevent movement.
Any movement of the material may affect the
quality of the sanding finish.
Start your sander before sanding and turn it off
only after you stop sanding. For the best results,
sand wood in the direction of the grain.
Do not start sanding without having the
sandpaper fitted.
Do not allow the sandpaper to wear away it will
damage the base-plate. The guarantee does not
cover base-plate wear and tear.
Use coarse grit paper to sand rough surfaces,
medium grit for smooth surfaces and
fine grit for the final surfaces. If necessary, first
make a test run on scrap material.
Use only good quality sandpaper.
The sandpaper controls the sanding efficiency,
not the amount of force you apply to
the tool. Excessive force will reduce the sanding
efficiency and cause motor overload. Replacing
the sandpaper regularly will maintain optimum
sanding efficiency.
