but use a coarser grit size.

7. SELECTING THE RIGHT GRADE OF

SANDPAPER

Different grades of sanding paper 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. 100 or 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

sandpaper for a particular job.

8. PAD BRAKE

Your sander is equipped with a pad brake that

prevents over-speeding of the pad. If the tool

is lifted off the work surface while the motor

is running, the brake will limit pad rotation to

avoid unwanted sanding marks and gouges.

WORKING HINTS FOR

YOUR ORBITAL 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.

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. If you see some sparks flashing in

the ventilation slots, this is normal and will not
damage your power tool.

ENVIRONMENTAL

PROTECTION

Waste electrical products should not

be disposed of with household waste.

Please recycle where facilities exist.

Check with your local authorities or retailer for

recycling advice.
