How to use

Before use, fit an appropriate abrasive accessory compatible with the machine and the material to be worked. Secure the workpiece and ensure adequate lighting and ventilation. Hold the tool with a firm grip and apply even, moderate pressure; allow the abrasive to remove material without forcing the machine. Move the tool in steady passes along the work surface and check progress frequently to avoid over-sanding. After finishing, disconnect power and clean dust from the tool and workspace.

Usage recommendations

For best results, start with a coarser abrasive grit for material removal and progress to finer grits for finishing. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, dust mask and hearing protection. Keep replacement abrasive pads and sandpaper grits on hand to match different stages of preparation and finishing.
