OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

5. Attaching the Sander To a Vacuum

The sander can be connected to a 2-1/4 in. or

a. Remove the battery from the tool.

b. Turn the dust bag (F) counterclockwise to the

UNLOCK position and remove it from the sander.

c. Attach a 2-1/4 in. vacuum hose to the dust-

exhaust adaptor (E).

To install a 1-1/4 in. vacuum hose

the dust-exhaust adaptor (E).

6. Installing Sandpaper

Selecting the correct size grit and type sandpaper

is an extremely important step in achieving a high

quality sanded nish.

In general, coarse grit will remove the most material

and ner grit will produce the best nish in all sanding

operations. The condition of the surface to be sanded

will determine which grit and type will do the job. Start

with sandpaper on a test sample of the workpiece.

a. Remove the battery from the tool.

b. Align the holes in the sandpaper (G) with the

holes in the sanding pad (C), then press the

fuzzy side of the sandpaper against the pad as

tightly as possible.
