Operation
Choice of the sand-paper
Coarse sand-paper (grain 60) removes in general the bigger part of the
material and fine sand-paper is used for the finishing. If the surface is not
even, then start with rough sand-paper. Further you use middle coarse sand-
paper(grain 80) to remove the scratches left behind by the coarse sand-paper
and finally you take fine sand-paper (grain 120) for the finishing.
Operating instructions
Make sure that the machine has reached its full speed before placing the ma-
chine on the work piece. This will prevent an overload of the machine.
For sanding wood, place the machine approximately 15° out of the grains of
the wood. Move the belt sander continuously over the work piece, in a back
and forth motion.
