ASSEMBLY

TO ATTACH CONVERSION PAD AND VELCRO TYPE SANDING DISC

The conversion pad provided with your sander has a pressure sensitive adhesive backing material. It is applied by the same method as pressure sensitive adhesive paper.

￿Unplug your sander.

￿Carefully peel paper backing from the conversion pad and align with holes in backing pad. Firmly press sticky side of conversion pad against backing pad. Your sander is now ready to use velcro type sanding discs.

￿Align holes in velcro type sanding disc with holes in conversion pad, then carefully press fuzzy side of sanding disc against pad as tight as possible.

NOTE: Velcro type sanding discs can be reused for the life of the sanding abrasive. It is recommended that you keep the sanding disc backing and the conversion pad clean to provide the best attachment. Clean occasionally by brushing lightly with a small brush.

DUSTLESS SANDING

See Figures 3 and 4.

The dust bag assembly provides a dust collection system for your sander. It can be installed by slipping it over the blower exhaust with a twisting motion. Sanding dust is drawn up through the holes of the sanding disc to collect in the dust bag during sanding operation.

NOTE: For more efficient operation, empty dust bag when no more than half full. This will permit the air to flow through the bag better.

W:ARNING:

To prevent the possibility of sanding dust or foreign objects being thrown into your face or eyes, never attempt to use your sander without the dust bag properly installed. Sanding dust or foreign objects being thrown into your face can result in possible serious personal injury.
