ORBITAL SANDER OPERATION
WARNING:
1. How to hold the orbital sander
While gripping the housing, lightly press
the sander against the surface to be
sanded so that the sanding paper uniformly
contacts the surface, as shown in Fig. 6.
DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the
sander while sanding. Excessive pressure
may cause overload of the motor, reduced
service life of the sanding paper, and
lowered sanding or polishing effi ciency.
2. How to move the orbital sander
For
optimum
alternately move the sander forward
and backward at a constant speed and
balance.
3. Switching the sander ON and OFF
The power can be turned on by setting the
lever to ON (1) and turned off by setting the
lever to OFF (0).
NOTE:
Never turn the power switch ON when the sander is contacting the surface to be sanded.
This is necessary to preclude damage to the material. The same applies when switching the
power OFF.
CAUTION:
● lmmediately after use, always turn the sander off and unplug it.
● Since the sander may suck in dust and debris, be careful not to place it where there
is much dust and debris when it is still spinning right after use.
Never apply water or grinding fl uid when sanding. This could result
in electrical shock.
