CAUTION: Failure to use a dust bag rated for drywall dust will increase the level of airborne dust
particles in the work area. Continued and prolonged exposure to high concentrations of airborne
dust may affect the respiratory system function.

e.
Speed adjustment
The grinding of the grinding disk rotation speed can be adjusted according to different conditions and
grinding quality requirements.
The Drywall Sander is equipped with a variable speed control. The speed is adjusted by turning the
control knob. The control knob is numbered to MIN to MAX. MIN is the slowest speed (approximately
1200 RPM) and "MAX" being the fastest speed {approximately 1950 RPM).
Use the higher speed settings for fast stock removal. Use the lower speed selling to reduce removal rate
for more precise control.
f.
Sanding drywall
The drywall Sander has a unique articulating sanding head: the abrasive pad to conform to the work
surface.
This enables the operator to sand the top, middle and bottom of a wall or ceiling joint.
When sanding the tall wall, and ceiling, please use a ladder for help.
The sanding pad could be adjusted the height by itself when it meet the uneven wall.
CAUTION: Wear a respirator protection.
Position the drywall dander lightly against work surface (apply just enough pressure to align the
sanding head with the work surface).
Apply additional pressure to engage the abrasive pad to the work surface: while moving the Sander
in an overlapping pattern to smooth the drywall compound down to a "featheredge'.
Apply ONLY enough pressure to keep the abrasive pad flat against the work. Excessive pressure can
cause unacceptable swirl marks and unevenness in the work surface.
