Selecting the Sanding Sheet
Depending on the material to be worked and the
required rate of material removal, different sanding
sheets are available:
For the working of all
wooden materials
For coarse-sanding, e. g. of
rough, unplaned beams and
boards
For face sanding and planing
small irregularities
For finish and fine sanding of
hard woods
For the working of
paint/enamel coats or
primers and fillers
For sanding off paint
For sanding primer
For final sanding of primers
before coating

fine 180, 240,
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly deter-
320
mined by the selection of the sanding sheet as well as
the preselected orbital stroke rate.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sanding
capacity and extend the service life of the machine.
Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pressure; this
increases the working life of the sanding sheets.
Intensifiying the sanding pressure does not lead to an
increase of the sanding capacity, but to increased wear
of the machine and the sanding sheet.
A sanding sheet that has been used for metal should
not be used for other materials.
Use only original Bosch sanding accessories.
