3.1 Attaching Sandpaper

2. Align the holes on the sandpaper with the holes on the sanding pad.
3. Press the sandpaper firmly onto the hook-and-loop sanding pad until it is securely attached.
4. Verify that the sandpaper is centered and flat on the pad to prevent uneven wear and poor sanding results.

3.2 Connecting Dust Extraction

1. Locate the dust extraction port on the sander.
2. Attach the provided dust collection box firmly to the port. Ensure a snug fit to maximize dust collection efficiency.

4.2 Sanding Techniques

• Initial Contact: Place the sander flat on the workpiece before turning it on.

• Smooth Movement: Move the sander in smooth, overlapping strokes across the surface. Avoid holding the sander in one spot for too long to prevent gouging or uneven sanding.
• Grain Direction: For best results, sand with the grain of the wood.
• Edge and Detail Work: The triangular pad is ideal for reaching corners and intricate details.

4.3 Dust Management During Operation

• Regularly check the dust collection box and empty it when it is about two-thirds full to maintain optimal dust extraction.
