OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the
instruction book carefully.
INTENDED USE
The machine is intended for dry sanding of
wood,plastic, metal and filler material as well as
painted surfaces.
Machines with electronic control are also suitable
for polishing. The sander is not to be used for
plastering.
1. CHANGING HOOK & LOOP SANDPAPER (See
A, B)
The sandpaper and sanding plate are provided
with a hook and loop attachment system to allow
quick and easy changing of the sanding and
polishing accessories. Firstly, remove any dust
or other objects from the hook and loop on the
sanding plate and sandpaper. As the sandpaper
has dust extraction holes you must align these
with the holes in the sanding plate, otherwise the
dust extraction will not function. (See A)
To remove the sandpaper, lift one corner of the
paper and pull off from the sanding plate. (See B)

2. DUST BAG (See C1, C2, D)
— ATTACHING THE DUST BAG (See C1)
Always operate your sander with the dust bag
fitted.
To attach, slide the bag onto the outlet piece and
take care that the latching lever engages.
CAUTION!
To prevent the possibility of sanding dust or
foreign body being thrown in to your face or eyes,
never attempt to use your sander without the dust
bag properly installed.
— EMPTY THE DUST BAG (See C1, C2, D)
For more efficient operation, empty the dust bag
every 5-10mins. This will permit the air to flow
through the bag better.
Method 1: To empty the dust bag, press the
latching lever in and pull off the bag from the dust
extraction port, and shake out dust. (See C1, C2)
Method 2: To empty the bag, rotate the bag to the
unlock position. Remove the bag and shake out
dust. (See D)

3. OPERATING THE ON/OFF SWITCH (See E)
To start your sander, depress the protective cover
over the switch at the position marked "I".
To stop your sander, depress the protective cover
at the position marked "0".
4. HAND GRIP AREA (See F, G)
Your sander is designed to be held either around
the main housings, or by the top of the main
housing. When sanding for long periods at a time,
it is recommended you periodically alternate
between the two holding positions.
5. SANDING SURFACES
Place the machine with the complete Sand paper
on the surface to be worked. Ensure uniform
sanding pressure. Less sanding pressure
increases the sanding capacity and protects
the machine and the sanding tool. The removal
capacity and the sanding pattern are determined
mainly by the selection of the Sand paper (grain
size), the speed of the sanding plate and the
application pressure.
ROUGH SANDING
Attach a Sand paper with coarse grain. Apply
only light sanding pressure to achieve increased
material removal.
FINE SANDING
Attach a Sand paper with fine grain. With
moderate pressure, move the machine in a
circular pattern or alternately in lengthwise and
crosswise directions over the workpiece. Do not
tilt the machine to avoid sanding through the work
piece (e.g. when sanding veneer). After finishing
the work, switch off the machine and lift it from
the workpiece.
6. ORBITAL SANDING
Guide your sander parallel to the working surface
and move it in circles or in a cross pattern. Do
not tilt the tool in order to avoid deep unwanted
sanding marks. The amount of material removed
is determined by the speed of the sanding disc
and the grit size used. The speed of the sanding
disc diminishes relative to the pressure applied
to the tool. For faster removal, do not increase
pressure on the tool, but use a coarser grit size.

SANDPAPER
