Installing or removing abrasive
paper
►Fig.2
Openthepaperclampbyraisingonthelevertorelease
from the locking port and then Insert the paper end into
theclampingpart,aligningthepaperedgesevenand
parallel with the sides of the base. (Bending the paper
beforehand makes attachment easier). Once the paper
isinplace,returnthelevertoitsoriginalposition.
►Fig.3
Repeat the same process for the other end of the base,
maintaining the proper paper tension.
Afterinsertingthepaper,makesuretheclampingpart
hold it securely. Otherwise the paper will be loose
andsubjecttoslippage,resultinginunevensanding
operation.
►Fig.4: 1. Punch plate 2. Sandpaper 3. Guide
Whenusingthedustbag,makeholesintheabrasive
paperusingthepunchplateasfollows:
1. Set the tool upside down.
2. Placethepunchplateovertheabrasivepaperso
thatthebentsidesofthepunchplateareush
with the paper edges.
3. Press the punch plate to make holes in the abra-

them open).
3. Pressthepaperrmlyoverthepad.
To remove the sandpaper:
1. Set the tool upside down so that the sandpaper is

Sanding operation
►Fig.15
CAUTION:
• Neverrunthetoolwithouttheabrasivepaper.
You may seriously damage the pad.

decreasethesandingefciency,damagethe
abrasivepaperand/orshortentoollife.
Holdthetoolrmly.Turnthetoolonandwaituntilit
attainsfullspeed.Thengentlyplacethetoolonthe
workpiecesurface.Anishingsanderisgenerallyused
