9 SANDING OPERATIONS
 Once the machine and vacuum cleaner are set up and all safety measures and equipment
are in place, begin by turning on the vacuum cleaner and then the machine. (If you are
using a vacuum cleaner with integrated switching, then simply turn the machine on.)
 Begin sanding and carefully contact the work surface as lightly as possible-just enough to
keep the sanding head flat against the surface.
 The joist in the sanding head allow the sanding disc (7) to follow the contours of the work
surface.
 The best technique is to use overlapping sweeps and keep the head in constant motion.
Never stop too long in any one place or there will be swirl marks. With experience it will be
very easy to create excellent results.
NOTE: Ensure that the sandpaper (7) you are using is suited to the task,
Overly coarse grit paper may remove material too quickly to control. While
overly fine grit paper may clog too often and not shape down the surface.
CAUTION: Take care to avoid sharp projections and nails, etc. This will wipe
out the sandpaper and probably damage the sponge pad as well.
10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
10.1 Keep tool clean
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. All plastic parts should be
cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic pats. They could possibly
dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
Clean the vacuum swivel connector as too much dust will keep it from turning freely.
10.2 The carbon brushes (13)
The carbon brushes are a normal wearing part and must be replaced when they reach their
wear limit.
10.3 Carbon brushes replacement
 Unscrew the brush –holder caps using a cutting tool.
 Extract the worn brushes and replace them with new ones.
 Lock the brush-holder caps.
