Selecting the Sanding Sheet
Depending on the material to be worked and the required rate of material removal, different sanding sheets are available:
Replacing the Sanding Sheet
To remove the sanding sheet 8, lift it from the side and pull it
off of the sanding plate 5.
When attaching a new sanding sheet, remove any dust or
debris from the sanding plate 5, e.g., with a brush.
The surface of the sanding plate 5 is fitted with Velcro backing
for quick and easy fastening of sanding sheets with Velcro
adhesion.
Press the sanding sheet 8 firmly against the bottom side of
the sanding plate 5.
To ensure optimum dust extraction, pay attention that the
punched holes in the sanding sheet match with the holes in
the sanding plate.
