Selecting the Sanding Sheet
Depending on the material to be worked and the
required rate of material removal, different
sanding sheets are available:
For reworking or polishing, especially of metal
and stone, use fleece/polishing cloth pad.
Depending on the desired surface quality of the
workpiece, different fleece types or polishing
cloth pads are to be used.

Operation

wait until the sander has come to a stand-
still before placing it down. The sander can
move unintentionally.

ble can heat up.
