• lay sandpaper on a flat surface and,
centering the pad of the unit, press the
sander down firmly onto the paper.
• Wrap ends of the sandpaper around
ends of the sander pad and clamp them
in place using the clamps.
• To close clamps, rotate clamp handles
back up as far as they will go and lock
them in place. Stretch sandpaper as tight
as possible when clamping.
NOTE: On new tools the sandpaper may be
difficult to install because of the stiffness of
the sanding pad. This condition will improve
as the pad compresses over time.
PUNChING SANDING ShEETS
The paper punch (7) is used for punching
dust extraction holes in sanding sheets
without pre-punched holes.
• Attach a sanding sheet.
• Hold the tool in position directly above
the paper punch.
• Press the tool with the sanding base
down into the paper punch as shown in

OPERATION
Grasp the sander as shown in figure D
and turn it ON. Move it in long, sweeping
strokes along the surface, letting it do
the work. Pushing down on the tool while
sanding actually slows the removal rate and
produces an inferior quality finish.
Check your work often. Sander is capable
of removing material rapidly especially with
coarse paper.
