Using a square floor sander involves a few key steps to effectively and safely refinish your floors. Here's how:
The American Sanders Square Buff floor sander is an orbital machine, so it sands in any direction.
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Start the Machine: Once the machine is started, release the safety switch.
- Sanding Technique: Since it is an orbital sander, you can sand in any direction, and don't have to follow the grain of the wood.
Key Considerations for Using a Square Floor Sander:
- Orbital Action: Unlike drum sanders, square floor sanders use an orbital action, making them more forgiving and easier to control. This means you don't have to move it in the direction of the grain.
- Versatility: This type of sander is effective in various areas, including edges and corners.
