O P E R ATIONS

PLEASE READ THE SAFETY RULES BEFORE OPERATING THE SANDER.

The random orbital sander can be used with or without the fence depending on the application;

however, we recommend that the fence be used whenever possible.

the fence.

The random orbital action of the sander minimizes score marks on the workpiece and allows

maximum wear from the abrasive sanding discs. IMPORTA N T:Since the sander operates in a

clockwise direction, it is best to sand with the workpiece on the left side of the disc, if

possible, to prevent work kickback. Always use the fence when sanding operations permit.
