Circular Sander

1. First, remove blades from the circular saw. Generally, to remove blades you will need an open-ended wrench box. Do not forget to refer the owner's manual prior to opening the blades.

2. Now place in the vise and close it properly. However, see that you do not tighten it much.

3. Next, make a marking with chalk at top most point of blade so that you understand that you have completed sharpening of the whole blade. Now hold the file, it means diamond file, especially if you sharpen blades using carbide tips at a twenty degree angle. Then, lightly stroke it along bevel edge of first tip and four good strokes will be adequate for sharpening it.

4. Next, skip blade points and then repeat same process all over again. Stroking the file at least four times over beveled edge will sharpen the points.

5. Go on turning the blade and go all around saw blade sharpening all points. You will understand when the entire process of sharpening it is over, as you will return to the chalk mark. Repeat the same thing on other blade side. Be sure to also start with the top most points with the beveled edge.

6. Finally, complete filing tips of the beveled tooth. Then, place the file between the top two teeth with the files flat side against the leading edge of the points. Run the file backwards and forwards just a single time across front edge from tip of blade point. Repeat this procedure for all tips and the blade will get sharpened in no time.

If you follow these simple instructions, you can sharpen the blades of your circular saw in an easy manner.

Controlled Finishing System for Smooth Results
This sander's 3.0 amp motor delivers 12,000 opm, a sanding speed that's ideal for creating smooth finishes on a variety of work pieces. Its random-orbit motion and 3/32-inch orbit prevent unsightly swirls while allowing for significant material removal. The DEWALT Controlled Finishing System (CFS) controls pad speed and minimizes gouging during start up, contributing to clean, consistent finished surfaces.

Since achieving a great finish is also about how well you're able to control your sander, this tool features a textured anti-slip top and body grip. This keeps you comfortable during extended periods of use and allows for excellent control--no matter how tough the job at hand is. The sander also features a dual-plane counter-balanced fan that improves handling and works to reduce user fatigue, and it weighs in at an easy-to-maneuver 3.4 pounds.

Durable, Versatile Design and Quick Disk Changes
Sanding produces a lot of dust, which can be hard on electronic and mechanical tool parts over time. This orbital sander's dust-sealed switch and sealed 100 percent ball-bearing construction combine to keep dust and debris away from critical components and ensure a longer tool life.

For added convenience, the sander accepts 5-inch, 8-hole hook and loop abrasive paper. This setup allows sanding disks to be switched back and forth quickly and easily, so you never have to choose between maintaining an efficient workflow and utilizing the perfect grit.

Convenient, Integrated Dust Management
Dust management is critical when performing sanding and stripping tasks, and DEWALT has it covered with a high capacity dust bag. This bag features a built-in vacuum adapter, so you can choose to utilize it with or without a shop vac or an extractor based on where you are and what applications you tackle most.

This 5-Inch Random-Orbit Sander comes with a DEWALT warranty package that includes a three-year limited warranty, a one-year free service contract, and a 90-day money back guarantee.
