Manual

Sanders are used to sand wood and similar products, painted surfaces,

metal, stone, etc. There are sanders of various different shapes in order

to do specic jobs:

- The delta sander or triangular sander ideal for restoration work such as the sanding

of shutters (louvre shutters) or staircases. Thanks to its shape, it can get into tight

angles. It is compact and easy to use.

- The vibrating sander recommended for sanding at surfaces such as doors or furni-

ture. Move the sander slowly and regularly, in the direction of the wood bres.

- The orbital sander which enables you to sand, buff or polish, using the suitable

accessories. It is precise and manoeuvrable, and can be used on surfaces that are not

at. It is a very versatile machine. Move the sander with slow and regular circular

movements.

- The belt sander is used to take off much more material and to sand wide surfaces

such as wooden oors. The belt moves longitudinally and sands this way. Therefore,

work in the direction of the wood bres, without pressing down on the machine. Hold

the machine tight, because it is a powerful tool. Attention, if you leave the tool in one

place, there is a risk that you will carve out a hollow in what you are sanding.

When you are positioning the abrasive belt, ensure that it does not block the inlet

holes (if the machine has any)

Generally speaking, it is better to begin with coarse grain sandpaper (e.g. A40) and

move up to ner grained papers (e.g. A120). The basis weight is inversely proportio-

nal to the abrasive power.

ADVISE SHEET

The adjustment of the speed, if you machine has this equipment, enables you to adapt

the speed of vibration to the material you are working with. For example, you need

to use a low speed for stripping, in order to prevent heating or liquidising the paint,

which would damage the sandpaper.

It is better to hook your machine up to a vacuum cleaner in order to collect as much

dust as possible

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
