FITTING THE
SANDING SHEETS
Note: before fitting a new sanding sheet, remove dust and dirt from the base
ቤ
.
1. Lift both clips
ቢ
to open them to insert a new sanding sheet or change the sanding sheet for use on a different material.
2. Push the sanding sheet
ባ
under the open clip at one end and clamp it securely on the base by moving the clip down again.
3. Do the same at the other end. Make sure that the sanding sheet
ባ
is tight against the base. See Figures
ቮ
and
ቯ
.
4. Important! - The holes in the sanding sheet
ባ
and the base
ቤ
must align for the dust to be extracted through the base. See Figure
ተ
.
Different materials need different grades of sanding sheets. To determine which grade is suitable for your work, please read our
recommendation in Tips and Tricks.
