of a wall or ceiling joint without changing: his position.
1. Turn vacuum cleaner switch ON.
2. CAUTION: Wear a respirator approved for "Dust
and Mist".
3. Turn Drywall Sander switch ON.
4. Position drywall sander lightly against work sur-
face (apply just enough pressure to align the sand-
ing head with the work surface).
5. 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 unac-
ceptable swirl marks and unevenness in the work surface.
Keep the sander in constant motion while abrasive pad is
in contact with the work surface. Use a steady, sweeping
motion. Stopping the Sander (on the work), or moving
the Sander erratically can cause unacceptable swirl marks
and unevenness in the work surface.
NOTE
Do not allow rotating abrasive pad (Fig.7) to contact
sharp protrusions. Contact with protruding objects (nails,
screws, electrical boxes, etc.), can severely damage the
abrasive pad.
ABRASIVE PAD REPLACEMENT
CAUTION
Disconnect Sander from Power Supply.
Grasp the abrasive pad and the sander housing (clamping
the pad to the housing), to prevent pad rotation.
1. Rotate the pad retaining nut, counterclockwise
and remove.
2. Lift off the large metal washer, and the abrasive
pad.
3. NOTE: When the abrasive pad, is lifted off the
Sander: the abrasive back-up disc is exposed.
Please note that this back-up disc is also covered
with an abrasive material. This abrasive material
is ONLY used to prevent "slippage" between the
back-up disc and the foam backed abrasive pad, it
is NOT suitable for use as a sanding abrasive. Do
not use the sander without a proper abrasive pad
installed (to prevent severe damage to the work).
4. Position new abrasive pad to the back-up disc,
making sure that the center hole in the abrasive
disc is centered on the hub of the back-up disc.
5. Position the large metal washer the retaining nut
to the Sander.
6. Rotate the retaining nut clockwise to hand tight-
en (while holding the abrasive pad).
