Switch action

To start the tool, move the switch to the

"ON" position. To stop, move the switch to the "OFF" position.

Operation

Hold the tool firmly. Turn the tool on and wait until it attains full speed. Then gently place the tool on the workpiece surface. A finishing sander is generally used to re- move only a small amount of material a t a time. Since the quality of the surface is more important than the amount of stock removed, do not bear down on the tool.

Keep the base flush with the workpiece a t all times. Excessive pressure may damage the paper and shorten tool life.

CAUTION :

0 Do not block motor vent with your finger or hand.

0 Never run the tool without paper. You may seriously damage the pad.
