tedious, time consuming or simply next to

LEARNING TO USE THE TOOL
Getting the most out of your oscillating tool is a
matter of learning how to let the speed and the
feel of the tool in your hands work for you.
The first step in learning to use the tool is to
get the "feel" of it. Hold it in your hand and feel
its weight and balance (Fig. 5). Depending on
the application, you will need to adjust your
hand position to achieve optimum comfort and
briefly switch the power tool on. This will
promote good adhesion and helps to
prevent premature wear.
3. To change, merely peel off the old sanding
sheet, remove dust from the backing pad if
necessary, and press the new sanding
sheet in place.
After considerable service the backing pad
surface will become worn, and the backing pad
must be replaced when it no longer offers a
firm grip. If you are experiencing premature
wear out of the backing pad facing, decrease
the amount of pressure you are applying
during operation of the tool.
For maximum use of abrasive, rotate pad 120
degrees when tip of abrasive becomes worn.
