Only use sanding/grinding paper of the appropriate size and suitable perforations.

• Lift the lever (7) on the front of the orbital san-der.
• Insert the sanding/grinding paper as far as possible into the open clamp and close the lever again.
• Place the sanding/grinding paper taut over the orbital plate (6) and clamp it again using the second lever (7) on the rear of the orbital sander.
• Make sure that the perforations in the san-ding/grinding paper line up with the oscillating plate.

Fastening the sanding/grinding paper with the Velcro fastening system (Fig. 7)

• Only use sanding/grinding paper with the corresponding dimensions and matching perforations.
• Place the sanding/grinding paper onto the oscillating plate (6) as shown in figure 7. Make sure that the perforations in the sanding/grin-ding paper coincide with the oscillating plate.
