To Install SuperPad
1. Unplug the machine.
2. Peel away the worn out sandpaper disc, leaving the sponge backing pad in place.
3. Carefully center the new sandpaper disc and press into place. It will be held securely by the hook and loop backing.
NOTE: The sponge pad has 2 different hook profile types. The black side is finer hook, the white side is
coarser hook. Choose the side which adheres best to your sandpaper.
To Replace Cushioned Interface Pad
The sponge pad must be perfectly flat to get good sanding results. If it is deformed or damaged it will cause very
uneven sanding. Always replace it when damaged. It is hook and loop on both sides, so to Replace it, peel it away from
the hook and loop on the Sanding Plate Base and, taking great care to keep it perfectly centered, affix a new one.
CAUTION: Ensure that the holes in the Sponge Pad are perfectly aligned with the slots in the Sanding Plate Base.
Improper alignment will lead to excessive vibration.
CAUTION: Only use original parts Sponge Pads for replacement. Outside-sourced sponge pads will not function
properly with this tool.
To Replace Brush Bristles
The brush bristles on the edge of the Sanding Plate Cover serve two
purposes, they keep the sanding disc properly aligned with the work
surface without gouging and they also help the efficiency of the dust
collection by the vacuum cleaner. These brush bristles will wear with
continued use.
The Sanding Plate Cover should be replaced when the bristles are
too worn to ensure effective dust collection and stabilization of the
sanding head.
