by lightly tapping against it.
The machine is equipped with 2 sanding sheets
that can be changed individually depending on

sheets are attached. Only use sanding sheets
with the same grain size.
Position the sanding sheet flush on one side of
the sanding plate; attach the sanding sheet and
press against the sanding plate with a light turn-
ing motion in clockwise direction.
