, shown in FigureA, allows you
to increase or decrease speed from 8000–13500 Orbits Per
Minute. The optimal speed setting for each application is very

the tool before making any adjustments or removing or
installing attachments or accessories. Be sure the switch is
in the OFFposition.
A paper punch
11
is provided with your sander to
let you perforate regular abrasive paper to make dust
collectionpossible.
To Perforate your Abrasive Paper
Install the abrasive paper on the tool as instructed in this
manual. With the sander turned off and battery removed, place
the paper punch on the paper so that the tabs at the edges of
the punch are against any two adjacent sides of the sanding
pad, as shown. Press the punch against the pad so that the

that corresponds to the symbol “I”. To turn the tool
off, depress the side of the switch that corresponds to the
symbol“O”.
Attaching Abrasive Paper
Your sander is designed to use quarter sheet abrasive paper.
A quarter sheet of abrasive paper is measured 114.3mm x
139.7mm. This size paper can be madeby:
a. Cutting full sized 228.6mm x 279.4mm abrasive paper
into 1/4sheets of 114.3mm x 139.7mm.
b. Cutting half sheet of abrasive paper into two 114.3mm x
139.7mmsheets.
c. Pre‑cut 114.3mm x 139.7mm abrasive paper is available
at extracost.
Fitting Sanding Sheets (Fig.C–G)
Fitting regular sanding sheets (Fig.C–F)
1. Soften the stiff sandpaper by pulling it over the 90°
edge of a table or other straight edge, as shown in Fig.C.
Concentrate on softening the edges to beclamped.
2. Release the rear paper clamp
15
by pulling up on the side
clamp levers
1
and disengaging them from the tabs
16
on
the base plate/pad
3
as shown in Fig.D.
3. Disengage the front paper clamp (
10
, Fig.E) by applying
and holding pressure on the front clamp button
17
while
inserting the 115mm edge of the abrasive paper under the
front paper clamp until if hits the paper‑limiting ribs
18
.
Release the front paper clamp to secure the front of
thepaper.
4. Stretch paper over the base plate/pad
3
and begin to pivot
the rear paper clamp
15
around to its locking position.
Lock one side clamp lever
1
by placing it behind the tab
(
16
, Fig.F) on the base plate/pad and then repeat with the
second side clamplever.
5. If you are using the dust extraction feature, perforate the
sandpaper (see PaperPunch).
Fitting Hook and Loop Sanding Sheets (Fig.G)
1. Place the tool on a table, base plate/pad
3
up.
2. Place the sanding sheet directly on top of the base
plate/pad.
3. Hold the base plate/pad with one hand and align the dust
extraction holes
20
.
4. Press the sheet firmly onto the base plate/pad.
8points penetrate the paper, as shown in Fig. H1. (Press the
punch into the pad as far as it will go.) Remove the paper punch
and the paper is ready.
An alternate method of perforating the paper is to securely
fasten the punch to a suitable work surface. Two holes are
provided in the punch for this purpose. Use #8flat head screws.
Press the sander (with the paper attached) down on thepunch.
