Variable speed control
With the variable speed control, the
required speed can be selected (also
while running).
The required speed is dependent on
the material and is to be determined
by a practical trial.
After longer periods of working at
low speed, allow the machine to
cool down by running it for approx.
3 minutes at maximum speed with
no load.

grades of sanding sheet . Available
grades range from coarse to fine. This
machine can only fit special sanding
paper, which can be purchased from
the store where the sander was

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
SANDER

If your power tool becomes too hot, especially when
used at low speed, set the speed to maximum and run
it with no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid
prolonged usage at very low speeds. Always use sand
paper that is suitable for the material you want to sand.
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped
to prevent movement.
Any movement of the material may affect the quality of
the sanding finish.
Start your sander before sanding and turn it off only
after you stop sanding. For the best results, sand wood
in the direction of the grain.
Do not start sanding without having the sandpaper
fitted.
Do not allow the sand paper to wear away it will
damage the base-plate. The guarantee does not cover
base-plate wear and tear.
Use coarse grit paper to sand rough surfaces, medium grit
for smooth surfaces and fine grit for the final surfaces. If
necessary, first make a test run on scrap material.
Use only good quality sand paper.
The sand paper controls the sanding efficiency, not
the amount of force you apply to the tool. Excessive
force will reduce the sanding efficiency and cause
motor overload. Replacing the sand paper regularly will
maintain optimum sanding efficiency.
An integrated sanding plate brake reduces the speed
when running at no load so that scoring is avoided when
placing the machine on the work piece. A continuously
increasing no-load speed over the course of time
indicates that the sanding plate brake is worn and must
be replaced by an authorized customer service location.
