Troubleshooting
The sander loses power during operation
Check if the battery is depleted and ensure it is firmly seated in the battery terminal.
Excessive dust accumulation in the work area
Check the pleated filter for clogs and empty the dust box. Verify that the abrasive paper holes are aligned with the base plate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Battery Insertion: Ensure the Power X-Change battery is fully charged before clicking it into the base of the handle until it locks.
Paper Attachment: Align the holes of your 125mm sanding disc with the base plate using the hook-and-loop fastener. Ensure the dust extraction holes are aligned for optimal performance.
Speed Selection: Use the electronic dial to select your speed. Start at a low setting if you are unsure of the material's reaction to the sander.
