Square Buff
floor sanders are small square machines that are designed for the average homeowner to use. Because they have two wheels in the back and hand control for depth, they are easy to use. They take a little longer to do the job than an orbital sander, but they are much easier to control and will create less damage than an orbital if you lose concentration. Applying the pad is even simpler than applying the orbital sanding disk.
Instructions
1. Lay the sander on its handle. Tilt it back over the wheels, because this will make it easier to raise the machine once the pad is applied.
2. Locate the opening at the bottom of the sander. You'll see a series of little teethlike spikes. Push the foam-backed pad with the peel-off adhesive surface onto the teeth. Make sure it is adhered firmly to the spikes.
3. Remove the backing from the foam padding under the sander. Push the sanding pad onto the adhesive with the grit side out. Make sure that it is firmly affixed. Flip the sander back to an upright position.
