surface without trails. Because of the circular move-
ment, how you hold and move the sanding machine is
of little importance. Additional pressure force on the
machine is rarely necessary. The sanding foot of the
sanding machine can be turned 360°. This makes it
easy to sand corners and the sandpaper wears evenly,
resulting in longer use of the sandpaper.
5. MAINTENANCE
While maintaining and cleaning the
machine pull the plug from the mainssoc-
ket. Never use water or other agressive
liquids to clean the machine. Clean the
machine by brushing it with a brush.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF YOUR SANDER
PREVENTS PROBLEMS.
1. Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to
prevent overheating of the engine.
2. Never use solvents for cleaning the plastic spare
parts. Liquids like brake fluid, benzine product with
petroleum, paint remover, etc. contain chemical mat-
ters which can damage, affect or destroy the plastic.
