Tips on Sanding When using a power sander, do not press down on the machine. Let its own weight do the sanding. Pressing down inhibits the natural action of the machine. Whenever operating any power sander, engage and disengage the machine from the material being sanded while the belt or disk is still in motion to avoid gouging the wood. Wrap a padding material around a stick or dowel, then wrap sandpaper over it to use on inward curves.
Wood dust can ignite.
