Sanding With Abrasive Discs
(Figure 3)
To install sanding discs;
1. TURN OFF TOOL AND DISCONNECT FROM POWER SUPPLY.
2. Push the hub of the disc nut through the center of the sanding disc, as far
as it will go, and also through the backing disc.
3. Put the assembled discs on the tool spindle and engage the disc nut into
the disc nut hub.
4. Thread the assembly clockwise, completely down on the spindle.
5. Engage the lock button to lock the spindle in place.
When using a sanding disc, hold the tool at an angle of 10°-15° to the work. If
only the outer edge of the sanding disc is used, a rough cut surface will result.
If the sanding disc is pressed flat against the work, the surface will be irregular
and bumpy, and the tool will be difficult to control.
To remove disc:
1. Engage spindle lock button to lock the spindle in place.
2. Using a cloth or glove to protect your hand, turn disc assembly counter
clockwise to remove it from the tool spindle. (Figure 4)
