of a table or other straight edge, as shown in Figure B.
Concentrate on softening the edges to be clamped.
2. Release the rear paper clamp
clamp levers 7 and disengaging them from the tabs

. Release the front paper clamp to secure the front of the
5
paper.
4. Stretch paper over the base plate/pad
the rear paper clamp 6 around to its locking position. Lock
one side clamp lever by placing it behind the tab (

second side clamp lever.
5. If you are using the dust extraction feature, perforate the
sandpaper (see Paper Punch).
Fitting Hook and Loop Sanding Sheets

Paper Punch (Fig. G)
A paper punch is provided with your sander to let you
13
perforate regular sandpaper to make dust collection possible.
To Perforate Your Sandpaper
Install the sandpaper on the tool as instructed in this manual.
With the sander turned off and unplugged, place the paper
punch on the paper so that the tabs at the edges of the punch
are against any two adjacent sides of the sanding pad, as
shown. Press the punch against the pad so that the 8 points
penetrate the paper, as shown in Figure G. (Press the punch into
the pad as far as it will go.) Remove the paper punch and the
paper is ready.
An alternate method of perforating the paper is to securely
fasten the punch to a suitable work surface. Two holes are
provided in the punch for this purpose. Use #8 flat head screws.
Press the sander (with the paper attached) down on the punch.
Dust Extraction (Fig. A, H)

WARNING: Since woodworking with a sander produces
dust, always install a dustbag designed in compliance
with the applicable directives regarding dust emission.
WARNING: Do not use a dustbag or vacuum extractor
without proper spark protection when sanding metal.
The tool is supplied with an adapter for connecting a dustbag or
a vacuum extractor.
Your sander has a built-in vac-adapter
the supplied dust bag 10 or a shop vacuum system to be
connected. The built-in outlet utilizes the D
connection making it compatible with the D
extractor.
To Attach the Dust Bag
1. While holding the sander, fit the dust bag collar
vac-adapter 9 as shown in Figure H.
2. Turn the collar 11 clockwise to lock the dust bag
place.
To Empty the Dust Bag
1. While holding the sander, turn the collar
to unlock the dust bag 10
2. Remove dust bag from the sander and gently shake or tap
the dust bag to empty.
3. Reattach the dust bag back onto the outlet and lock into
place by turning the dust bag collar clockwise.
You may notice that all the dust will not come free from the
bag. This will not affect sanding performance but will reduce
the sander's dust collection efficiency. To restore your sander's
dust collection efficiency, depress the spring inside the dust bag
when you are emptying it and tap it on the side of the trash can
or dust receptacle.
