Roughing: position the machine at an angle of 30° 40° for the best working results. Cutting-off: Always work against the run of the disc (see illustration). Otherwise there is the danger of the machine kicking back from the cut out of control. Guide the machine evenly at a speed suitable for the material being processed. Do not tilt, apply excessive force or sway from side to side. Sanding: Press down the machine evenly on the surface and move back and forth so that the surface of the workpiece does not become too hot. Wire brushing: Press down the machine evenly. 9.
