Operating Instructions

1. General Usage

1. After installing the battery and sanding sheet, hold the sander firmly with both hands.
2. Position the sander flat on the workpiece surface.
3. Press the ON/OFF switch to start the sander.
4. Move the sander slowly and evenly across the surface. Apply light, consistent pressure. Avoid pressing too hard, as this can reduce efficiency and damage the workpiece or sander.
5. The delta shape allows access to tight corners and edges. Utilize the pointed tip for precision work.
6. When finished, lift the sander from the workpiece and press the ON/OFF switch to turn it off.

2. Tips for Effective Sanding

• Always sand with the grain of the wood for best results and to avoid scratches.
• Start with a coarser grit sandpaper if significant material removal is needed, then progress to finer grits for a smoother finish.
• Regularly check the sanding sheet for wear. A worn sheet will be less effective and can damage the surface.
• Ensure adequate ventilation in your work area to minimize dust inhalation.
