worn, replace the new paper and try again. The paper must be kept in a dry place, if it is al-
lowed to become damp, the abrasive particles will lose their adhesion to the backing paper and
will not abrade.

1. If your power tool becomes too hot, especially when used at low speed, set the speed to
maximum and run it with no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at
very low speeds. Always use sand paper that is suitable for the material you want to sand.

results, sand wood in the direction of the grain.

cover base-plate wear and tear.
7. Use coarse grit paper to sand rough surfaces, medium grit for smooth surfaces and ine grit for
the nal surfaces. If necessary, rst make a test run on scrap material.
