extraction system or vacuum cleaner.
• This sander is designed for both single-hand and double-hand operations. Adopt a
stable stance and make sure that the mains cable is prevented from coming into contact
with the machine or getting caught up on other objects preventing completion of the
sanding pass.
•
Ensure that you have removed foreign objects such as nails and screws from the
workpiece before commencing sanding.
•
Don't use it for wet sanding, for dry sanding only.
•
Where possible, secure smaller workpieces to prevent it from moving under the sander.
•
Do not force the sander, let the tool do the work at a reasonable speed. Overloading will
occur if too much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in inefficient sanding
and possible damage to the sander motor.
•
Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding paper.
•
Do not touch the moving sanding paper.
•
Always wear hearing protection
