4. Insert contour
completely
into the top and
back of the holder until it reaches the rear
"stop"
(Fig. 2).
HINT: make sure the small grip dimples
have
firmly secured
the sandpatuer
surface.
5. Press holder firmly back up into place until
the contour
"snaps"
in place,
To remove contour,
rotate lever to release
and lower the clamp holder. You are now
ready to install another
contour
shape or
detail pad.
When using sanding
tubes, rotate them
regularly to maximize
all surfaces for longer
more efficient use.
HINT: When reaching
into extremely
tight
places, the contour
can be extended
beycn
the front of the tool.
NOTE: Do not apply excessive pressure to th_
tool while in use. A!low the speed of the tool
and the accessory
to do the work. Applying
unnecessary
pressure wil! cause the accessor
to wear unevenly - it will not serve to perform
the work more quickly.
Contours:
Use sanding
tubes that are !ong
lasting,
reusable
and easy to install. To
install, slide tube completely
over desired
contour,
and shape paper to contour.
Contour
abrasive
tubes can also be rotated
on the contour,
to maximize the use of the
abrasive
surface.
PSA Rolls:
Rolls with pressure
sensitive
adhesive
can also be used with individual
contours.
Unroll a strip of abrasive
to fit the
particular
contour,
and cut to length with
scissors,
When using pressure sensitive
adhesive,
optimal
clamping
can be obtained
if the entire contour
surface
is wrapped
with
paper. Firmly press the abrasive
in place on
the contour.
To remove abrasive,
lift a
corner
of the sheet with your fingernail
and
peel it off. Dispose
of the used abrasives,
they are not reusable.
HINT: When using 1/8" and 3/16" concave
contours with sanding tubes, it will be easier to
conform the abrasive to the workpiece
if a finer
grit paper is used.
NOTE: The contour shapes have been
extruded to the dimension indicated on the
shape. When doing exacting work, it will be
necessary' to provide an allowance for the
sandpaper
being used. Heavier/coarser
grit
papers require a greater allowance.
PSA Adhesives work best at temperatures
above 25 degrees F. If PS& abrasives and
pads are stored at lower temperatures,
it may
be necessary to allow them to come to room
temperature
before use.
PSA Rolls must be stored in a dust-free
envwonment to prevent contamination of
adhesive.
After considerable
use. the detail pad backing
sudace may become worn. The backing pad
must be replaced when it no longer offers a
firm grip. If you are experiencing
premature
wearout of the backing pad facing, decrease
the amount of pressure you are applying
during operation of the tool.
This machine is particularly
suitable for access
to corners and edges that are otherwise
difficult to reach cr require hand sanding.
Profiles and grooves may be finished using the
tip or edge of the selected accessory, which
should occasionally
be rotated during use to
distribute the wear on the accessory
or
backing pad surface.
Always be ceRain that smaller workpieces
are
securely fastened to a bench or other suppcr:
Larger panels may be held in place by hand o
a bench or sawhorse.
SANDING: Open-coat
aluminum oxide sandir
sheets are recommended
for mos: wood cr
metal sanding applications,
as this synthetlc
materia! cuts quic'.d'! and _vears well.
