Installing/Removing Sanding Sheets
(Fig. E)
A diamond shaped platen uses a hook and loop adhesion
system to attach the sanding sheets. The platen allows you
to use it on large flat surfaces and tight spots or corners.
1. Attach the sanding platen accessory as described under
Installing/Removing Accessories.
2. Align the edges on the sanding sheet with the edge of
the sanding platen and press the sanding sheet onto
the platen.
3. Firmly press the base with the sanding sheet attached
against a flat surface and briefly switch the tool on.
This provides for good adhesion between the platen
and the sanding sheet and also helps to prevent
premature wear.
nOTE: When the tip of the sanding sheet becomes worn,
detach the sheet from the platen, rotate and reapply.
