SANDING AND SURFACES
The sanding output and the quality of the surface finish are determined by the rotation speed and the grade of grit
on the sanding disc (see table under “Advice on use, Tips and Tricks”). The following basic rule applies: the higher
the rotational speed, the higher the sanding output and the finer the sanded surface finish.
VACUUM DUST EXTRACTION
• VACUUM DUST EXTRACTION USING THE DUST COLLECTION BOX
Push the dust collection box
on to the adapter opening on the side of the sander.
Note: Empty the dust collection box regularly and at the appropriate intervals, striking the box to dislodge any
adhering dirt. This will ensure optimum suction for dust removal.
• VACUUM DUST EXTRACTION USING A VACUUM CLEANER
To use a vacuum cleaner for dust extraction you will require the appropriate adapter. Connect the adapter to
the hose end piece of your vacuum cleaner and attach it on to the nozzle of the sander.
CARE AND CLEANING
1. Clean the sander frequently. For best results, do this immediately after you have finished using it.
2. Do not allow any liquids to enter the sander. Use a soft cloth to clean the housing. Never use petrol, solvents
or cleaning agents as these may attack the plastic.
3. Always keep the ventilation openings clean and unobstructed.
ADVICE ON USE, TIPS AND TRICKS
• Move the sander in parallel runs, large circles or alternate longitudinal and transverse runs.
• Do not press on the sander. Otherwise the sanding discs may be displaced and detrimentally affect the
sanding performance.
• Clean the sanding disc from time to time with a vacuum cleaner.
• By selecting the correct rotational speed and the grade of grit on the sanding disc you can determine the sanding
output and the results you obtain.
• Do not work on different types of material using the same disc (e.g. wood and then metal).
• Only by using sanding discs in perfect condition will you enjoy good results and protect your sander.
Material/Application Coarse finish/Grit grade Fine finish/Grit grade Preselected rotation speed
Softwood 60 240 high ( +)
Hardwood 60 180 high ( +)
Sanding paint 180 400 low (– )
Removing paint/varnish 40 80 medium to high
Plastic 120 240 low to medium
Non-ferrous metals (e.g. aluminium) 80 240 medium to high
Steel 60 240 medium to high
These recommendations and other information are given without warranty. Try your settings out in practice on a test piece. In this way you can
confirm the best combination of speed and grit !
