Dust extraction using an external extraction
device
Connection
♦ To remove dust using a vacuum cleaner, push
the suction hose of a suitable dust extraction
device (e.g. a workshop vacuum cleaner) onto
the nozzle5.
NOTE
► If necessary, use the adapter6 by pushing it
into the nozzle5.
Removal
♦ Pull the hose of the vacuum cleaner off the
nozzle5 or the adapter6.
Work instructions, tips and tricks
♦ Move the sheet sander parallel to the surface
and in a flat circular motion or alternatively
lengthwise and across the surface.
♦ Do not press down hard on the sheet sander.
The sanding sheets will get clogged and the
sanding performance will deteriorate.
♦ Clean the sanding sheet0 every once in a
while using a vacuum cleaner.
♦ The proper choice of sheet speed and grain of
the sanding sheet0 will determine the removal
rate and thus also the result of your work.
♦ Never use the same sanding sheet0 for
sanding different materials (e.g. wood and
then metal).
In the table below, you will find some recommended
values that will help you determine which sanding
sheet0 to use for which job.
