Dust Collection Bag
DUST COLLECTION BAG: NEVER OPERATE THIS TOOL
WITH PERFORATED PAPER UNLESS THE DUST
COLLECTION BAG IS IN PLACE.
To use the dust collecting system, lower the plastic end of the
collection bag over the flange and push it down as far as it
will go, as shown in Figure 7.
To empty the dust collection bag, simply lift it up off of the
sander and empty over a trash receptacle.
Operation
To operate your sander, grasp it as shown in Figure 8 and turn
it on. Move it in long, sweeping strokes along the surface
being sanded, letting it do the work. Pushing down on the tool
while sanding actually slows the removal rate and produces
an inferior quality surface. Be sure to check your work often,
this sander is capable of removing material rapidly, especially
with coarse paper.
Your sander is designed to sand flush on three sides
(four sides without the dust collection bag) for sanding in
corners, and its small size and light weight make it ideal for
overhead work.
The orbital action of your sander allows you to sand with the
grain or at any angle across it for most sanding jobs. On the
final sanding steps, as discussed below, a better finish will
result if you sand only with the grain.
To produce the best finish possible, start with coarse grit
sandpaper and change gradually to finer and finer paper. A
final sanding with a piece of well worn fine sandpaper will
produce a really professional looking finish that in many cases
will need no hand sanding at all.
