depends on the material being processed and can
be determined through practical tests.
Fitting the sanding sheet
WARNING!
► Always remove the plug from the mains power
socket before carrying out any work on the
tool.
NOTE
► Before fitting a new sanding sheet0, remove
any dust and dirt from the sanding plate9.
Sanding sheets with Velcro
♦ Position the sanding sheet0 flush on one side
of the sanding plate9.
♦ Then lay the sanding sheet0 onto the sanding
plate 9 and press it firmly into place.
Sanding sheets without Velcro
♦ Open the two clamping levers8 by pressing
them slightly outwards and then carefully pulling
them upwards out of the catches.
♦ Push one end of the sanding sheet0 under the
open clamping bar7 and clamp it firmly in
place with the clamping lever8.
♦ Follow the same procedure at the other end.
Different materials require different grain sizes. You
can find out which grain is suitable for which work
in our non-binding recommendations in “Work
instructions, tips and tricks”.
Extracting dust
WARNING! RISK OF FIRE!
► When working with power tools that have a
dust collector4 or can be connected to a
vacuum cleaner via the vacuum cleaner
adapter, there is a risk of fire! In unfavourable
conditions, e.g. when sparks are flying while
sanding metal or metal residues in wood,
wood dust in the dust bag (or in the bag of
the vacuum cleaner) can spontaneously ignite.
This is a particular risk if the wood dust is
mixed with paint residues or other chemicals
and the workpiece has become hot after
being worked for a long time. Therefore,
avoid allowing the workpiece or tool to over-
heat and always empty the dust collector 4
or the dust bag of the vacuum cleaner before
taking a break from work.
Wear a dust mask!
Dust extraction with dust collector
Connection
♦ Push the dust collector4 onto the appliance.
Turn the dust collector4 to the
symbol to
lock it in place.
Removal
♦ Turn the dust collector4 towards the
symbol.
Pull the dust collector4 off the appliance (see
detailed illustration on fold-out page).
NOTE
► To ensure optimum extraction, empty the dust
collector4 regularly.
♦ To do this, remove the dust collector4 from
the appliance as described above. To do this,
open the dust collector4 by pressing on the
release button3 and pulling off the rear part
(see detailed illustration on fold-out page).
Now remove the dust bag. Clean the dust bag
thoroughly by tapping it out.
