ORBITAL MOTION Orbital motion is ideal for fast cutting action when removing old finishes, smoothing rough wood, cutting stock down to required dimensions, or for finishing surfaces to be painted. As shown in figure 6, the sandpaper moves in tiny circles at a very high speed, allowing the sander to move easily.
WARNING: WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL RYOBI REPLACEMENT PARTS. USE OF ANY OTHER PARTS MAY CREATE A HAZARD OR CAUSE PRODUCT DAMAGE. GENERAL Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
