speed of the sanding disc diminishes relative
to the pressure applied to the tool. For faster
removal, do not increase pressure on the tool,
but use a coarser grit size.
7. SELECTING THE RIGHT GRADE OF
SANDPAPER
- Different grades of Sanding Paper (7) can be
purchased from good DIY shops. Available
grades are Coarse, Medium and Fine.
- Use coarse grits to sand down rough finishes,
medium grit to smooth the work and fine grit to
finish off.
- The higher the grade number, the finer the grit.
For rough work start with a low grade of grit.
(e.g. 60 grit) and change to a higher, finer grade
(e.g. 120 grit) for finishing. If you use a fine
grade for rough surfaces it will soon clog and
need changing.
- It is best to make a trial run on a scrap piece of
material to determine the optimum grades of
Sanding Paper for a particular job.
8. SANDING PLATE BRAKE
An integrated sanding plate brake reduces the
speed when running at no load so that scoring
is avoided when placing the machine on the
work piece. A continuously increasing no-load
speed over the course of time indicates that
the sanding plate brake is worn and must be
replaced by an authorized customer service
location.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
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 sand paper 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 sand paper.
The sand paper 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 sand paper regularly will maintain optimum
sanding efficiency.
MAINTENANCE
Remove the plug from the socket before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
Your power tool requires no additional
lubrication or maintenance. There are no user
serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use
water or chemical cleaners to clean your power
tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store
your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor
ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls
free of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks
through the ventilation slots. This is normal and
will not damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent
or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid
a hazard.
ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
Disposal
The machine, its accessories and
packaging materials should be
sorted for environmentally friendly
recycling. The plastic components are
labeled for categorized recycling.
