Troubleshooting
Sandpaper not sticking to the sander.
Ensure the sander has a hook and loop backing pad and that both the sandpaper and the pad are clean and free of dust or debris. Press firmly to secure.
Uneven sanding results.
Check that the sandpaper is cut to the correct size and is evenly applied to the backing pad. Ensure the sander is moving consistently over the surface.
Sandpaper wears out too quickly.
This can be normal for certain materials or heavy-duty tasks. For lighter tasks, ensure you are not applying excessive pressure. Consider if a finer or coarser grit is more appropriate for your specific application.
