Tool Changing
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM
ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Make sure that the Switch is in the off-position
and remove its Battery Pack before
performing any procedure in this section.
1. The 5″ Sanding Disc (sold separately) is attached
by Hook and Loop to the Backing Pad.
2. Place the desired Sanding Disc on the
Backing Pad, lining up the 8 holes so that
the dust can be collected into the Dust Bag.
Press the Sanding Disc firmly in place.
Setting and Testing
1. Ensure the sanding paper is correctly attached
to the Sander and that its holes align with the
holes in the Backing Pad so the Dust Bag will
collect debris during the sanding operation.
2. Switch the Power Switch to ON (I) and
run the tool for at least 30 seconds.
3. If abnormal noise/vibration occurs or the
sandpaper slips off, have the problem
corrected before further use.

Grip the tool firmly with both hands.
1. Make sure that the Power Switch is in the
off-position, then attach the Battery Pack.
2. Hold the Sander by the Grip.
