Make sure that the sandpaper is stretched as
tight as possible against the sanding pad for
best possible sanding.

MAKING HOLES IN THE SANDPAPER
If a sandpaper without holes has been fitted,
you can make holes yourself. Place the corner
of the bottom part of the sander in the hole
punch with the corner (1) fully inserted in
the corner of the hole punch (2). Press down
the bottom part firmly in the hole punch.
The sharp punches (3) make holes in the
sandpaper (4) to remove the dust.

SELECTING SANDPAPER

• To get the best possible result it is very
important to choose the right grade and
type of sandpaper. Aluminium oxide,
silicon carbide and other synthetic
32
abrasives are best for tool sanding. Natural
abrasives such as flint and granite are too
soft and not suitable for tool sanding.
• Coarse sandpaper removes a lot of
material, while fine sandpaper produces a
smoother surface after sanding. The best
sandpaper to use depends on the
condition of the surface to be sanded.
NOTE:
• The grade of sandpaper is often
indicated by a number, where a higher
number indicates fine sandpaper and a
smaller number coarse sandpaper.
• If the surface to be sanded is very rough, start
with a coarse sandpaper. Use a medium
coarse sandpaper afterwards to remove
scratching from the coarse sandpaper, and
then a fine sandpaper to produce a smooth
surface. Continue sanding until the surface is
uniformly smooth.
SANDING
Clamp or fasten the workpiece so that it cannot
move during the sanding. Use a vice if possible.
WARNING!
If the workpiece is not secured it can be
thrown towards the user and cause injury.
Place the sander so that the surface of the
sanding pad is in full contact with the workpiece.
Start the sander by pressing the power switch.
Move the sander slowly over the workpiece,
working with parallel strokes until all of it has
been sanded. When sanding wood it is important
to move the sander parallel to the grain, not
across it. This makes the sanding more effective
and produces a smoother surface. Switch off
the sander by releasing the power switch after
sanding. Do not remove the sanding pad from
the workpiece until the sander has stopped.
NOTE:
• Do not start the sander until all of
the sanding pad is in contact with
