Instructions, tips and tricks

Move the oscillating sander parallel, in flat circles or alternating between lengthwise and side-to-side motions.

Do not press down with the oscillating sander. The sanding pads become clogged, which re- duces the sanding performance.

Clean the sanding pad 9 occasionally with the vacuum cleaner.

The removal performance and therefore the re- sult of your work are determined by the correct selection of the speed and sanding pad 9 grit. Never sand different materials with the same sanding pad 9 (e.g. wood then metal).
