Abstract
The method of sucking water is capable of easily removing excess water included in a backing member adhered on a plate of a polishing apparatus. In the method, the excess water is removed from the backing member by the steps of: pressing a water absorbing member onto a holding surface of the backing member, on which the work piece is adhered and held, so as to absorb the excess water from the backing member; and sucking the excess water absorbed by the water absorbing member.
