TRIGGER "ON-OFF" SWITCH
To turn the tool "ON" squeeze the trigger
switch. To turn the tool "OFF", release the
trigger switch, which is spring loaded and will
return to the "OFF" position automatically
(Fig. 1).
To increase switch life, do not turn switch on
and off while tool is under load.
"LOCK-ON" BUTTON
The "Lock-ON" button, located near the trigger
allows for continuous operation at maximum
OPM without holding the trigger (Fig. 1).
TO LOCK TRIGGER "ON": squeeze trigger,
depress button and release trigger.
TO UNLOCK THE TRIGGER: squeeze trigger
and release it without depressing the "Lock-
ON" button.
If the “Lock-ON” button is
continuously being depressed,
the trigger can not be released.
VARIABLE SPEED WITH DIAL SETTING
Your sander is also equipped with a variable
speed dial (Fig. 1). The sander's orbital pad
speed can be preset from zero to maximum
nameplate OPM by rotating the dial in the
housing. The dial may be set on or between
any of six positions (1=low through 6=high).
The following table may be used as a general
guide for abrasive and backing pad selection,
but the best results will be obtained by sanding
a test sample of the workpiece first.
