ATTACHING AND REPLACING SANDING DISCS
Before starting any work on your sander, pull the plug out of the mains socket. The random orbital sander is fitted
with a Velcro fastening, which allows for quick and easy replacement of sanding discs.
Note: Remove dust and dirt from the backing pad
before attaching a new sanding disc. When doing this, make
sure that the holes in the sanding disc align with the holes in the backing pad
. This will provide the maximum
suction for dust removal.
Different materials require different grades of grit. You can read about the various grit grades and the work for
which they are suitable in our informal recommendations under “Advice on use, Tips and Tricks”.
OPERATION
Take note of the mains voltage. The voltage must agree with that shown on the equipment rating plate (equipment
shown as 230 V can also be connected to 220 V).
PRESELECT ROTATION SPEED:
The desired rotation speed can be preselected as required using the rotation speed selector wheel
. Different
materials require you to work with different rotation speeds. To help in selecting the most appropriate rotation
speed, please refer to our recommendations under “Tips and Tricks”.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF, CONTINUOUS MODE:
TO SWITCH ON: Press the ON/OFF
switch
TO SWITCH OFF: Release the ON/OFF
switch
TO SWITCH ON IN CONTINUOUS MODE: Press the ON/OFF switch
and lock it in position by
simultaneously pressing the locking button
TO SWITCH OFF CONTINUOUS MODE: Press the ON/OFF switch and then release it.
2-STAGE POWER CONTROL:
DUO-START technology results in high sanding output and allows you two different ways of working with
the sander. The two handles allow you to concentrate the sanding power where you want it for the best results,
whilst providing you a good control of the sander. You also can work holding either the front handle
or the main
handle
. The front handle can be positioned using the wing screw on the right-hand side.
REDUCED NO-LOAD ROTATION SPEED:
The sander has a reduced no-load rotational speed facility. It is only when you press down on the sander or
actually sand the workpiece that the full power of the preselected rotation speed is triggered. This means that
you can safely bring the sanding disc into contact with the workpiece material and then gently start your orbital
sanding process.
ADVICE ON USE
Always switch on the random orbital sander before bringing it into contact with the workpiece material.
USE LIGHT SANDING PRESSURE ONLY
Always work applying the lightest possible sanding pressure. The weight of the sander alone is perfectly adequate
to produce good sanding results. By adopting this approach you will also prolong the life of your sanding discs,
obtain a smoother workpiece surface and reduce the amount of energy consumed.
