Cleaning Stick
Whenever sanding sleeves become
clogged, use the cleaning stick to
increase the life of each sleeve.
Regular cleaning can extend sleeve life by between 10 to 15 times. Turn the motor on
and position the cleaning stick at the top of the sanding sleeve. Use any corner of the
cleaning stick to press against the sleeve then at a medium pace and light pressure, pull
the cleaning stick back down the sleeve. This motion rapidly removes wood dust.
Alternatively, hold the cleaning stick steady in one
hand. With light pressure pull the sanding sleeve from
bottom to top. In both examples, repeat as necessary
until the sleeve is cleaned. A little practice will give
you the feel and speed at which to pull the cleaning
stick from top to bottom or bottom to top.
Sanding Tips
1. Direction of Sanding - Wood fibers follow the tree’s longitudinal direction. They are
woven together by diverse binding agents. At times you can experience wood as fibrous
especially in the soft wood species. This means the wood is absolutely strongest in the
direct of the grain, which has a great significance when choosing the material for your
product. Frequently it can be difficult to determine the fiber direction on a piece of wood.
Planks are alw
a
ys sawn in the fiber direction. When you sand you should also follow the
longitudinal direction of the fibers wherever possible. When you sand across the fibers
they are cut off, forming sharp edges.
The most attractive wood pattern is usually found in burls, knots, root systems and
deformities. These are often ideal for bowl-shaped items. The fibers usually run in all
directions and it is not impor
tant in which direction y
ou sand.
With end grain, efforts
should be made to sand “downhill”. It is also important to move the sander all the time
using e
ven and smooth movements.
