Sanding

This sander is well suited for fine sanding work and for making minor material
corrections. Materials that may be sanded with this sander include all types of
wood, steel, non-ferrous and precious metals, plastics, acrylic glass and
fiberglass.
Warning: When sanding, it is important to maintain control of the workpiece by
firmly holding it down onto the sanding table. A workpiece that is not held
tightly may become uncontrollable. This is particularly important when the
length of the sanding surface of the workpiece exceeds 50 mm. The sanding
surface of large workpieces will contact the upward moving portion of the
sanding disc and the workpiece will be prone to lifting off the sanding table,
