Sand lengthways along the work piece.
▪ Give the sander time to work. It is rarely necessary to press the sanding belt hard against
the surface to be worked. Start with coarse sandpaper and switch to finer paper if/when
required. If a very smooth surface is required, clean the item thoroughly with a soft cloth
after the final sanding. Switch to very fine sandpaper and give the item one extra sanding.
▪ Avoid blocking the vent holes with your hand, as this may cause the sander to overheat.
▪ Switch off by releasing the ON/OFF switch trigger.
