[] Remove non-adhesive sandpaper, then lift up on paper
clamp lever and lock it into place.
[] Carefully peel adhesive backing from new 1/4 sheet
sandpaper.
[] Position sandpaper, making sure front edge of sand-
paper is aligned with front edge of the cushion, then
carefully press sticky side of sandpaper on cushion.
NOTE: Sandpaper must be aligned with the front edge
of the cushion for proper functioning of the flush sand-
ing feature.
The cushion on the sander is approximately 1/4 in.
smaller than precut adhesive-backed sanding sheets.
If desired you may want to trim off the overhang of
sandpaper on the back side of cushion. The cushion
has been made smaller so that multiple sheets of non-
adhesive sandpaper can be installed.
PAPER PUNCH
See Figure 4.
A paper punch template has been supplied with the sand-
er. It should be used for aligning and punching holes in the
sandpaper for alignment with the holes in the cushion.
