in the corner area may cause damage. Pushing down on the tool while sanding actually slows the removal rate and produces an inferior quality finish. Check your work often. Sander is capable of removing material rapidly.
Dust Extraction
WARNING: Collected sanding dust from sanding surface coatings (polyurethane, linseed oil, etc.) can
Your sander comes equipped with a cloth canister to collect the dust generated while sanding. To attach the canister onto the sander simply slide it firmly onto the dust extraction port at the back of the sander and twist it slightly.
To empty the dust canister, remove it from the sander by simply twisting slightly and pulling it straight back. Dump the sanding debris into an appropriate trash receptacle. You may, if you prefer, attach a vacuum cleaner to the tool to collect the dust as you sand. Simply remove the dust bag, and install a vacuum hose.
Ensure that the vacuum cleaner can be placed such that it will not tip over or interfere with the motion of the sander. If this cannot be done, do not use the vacuum cleaner. Turn on the vacuum cleaner before beginning to sand and turn it off after turning off the sander. Empty vacuum cleaner as required.
