3.Plug the sander into the power supply.
4.Start the sander.
5.Hold the workpiece firmly in both hands as shown in Figure 18. Note— Always keep the workpiece on the side of the wheel that is rotating down toward the table. This will keep the workpiece from flying out of your hands from the rotational forces.
