RANDOM ORBIT SANDER OPERATION
WARNING:
Never apply water or grinding fluid when sanding. This could result in
electrical shock.
1.
How to hold the random orbit sander
While gripping the housing, lightly press the
sander against the surface to be sanded so
that the sanding paper uniformly contacts
the surface, as shown in Fig. 6. DO NOT
apply excessive pressure to the sander while
sanding. Excessive pressure may cause
overload of the motor, reduced service life
of the sanding paper, and lowered sanding
or polishing efficiency.
2.
How to move the random orbit sander
Move the sander by either moving it up and
down or by moving it in circles while
gradually progressing in a sideways
direction. (Figs. 7 and 8)
