The required oscillation speed depends on the ma- terial being worked and can be determined through practical tests.

Attaching a sanding pad

WARNING! Before performing work on the appliance, always disconnect the power.

NOTE: Before attaching a new sanding pad 9 , remove dust and dirt from the sanding plate 8 .

Sanding sheets with hook and loop fas- tening:

Fix one side of the sanding sheet					9	ﬂush with

one side of the backing plate			8	.
Then attach the sanding sheet					to the back-
			9

ing plate	8	and press it ﬁrmly into place.
Sanding sheets without hook and loop
fastening:
Open the two clamping levers			7		.

Push one end of the sanding sheet 9 under

the open clamping bar 6 and clamp the sheet ﬁrmly in place by locking the clamping lever 7 back in place.

Repeat this procedure at the other end.

Various materials require diﬀerent grit values. You can read which grit value is best suited for which work in our recommendations under “Instructions, tips and tricks”.

Vacuuming dust

WARNING! FIRE HAZARD! A risk of ﬁre exists when working with electrical appliances that have a dust

collection box 4 or can be attached to a vacuum cleaner via an external suction adapter! Under cer- tain conditions the sanding dust in the dust box (or in the vacuum’s dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a result of ﬂying sparks generated when abrading metals or metal objects left in wood. This can hap- pen especially if the wood dust has paint particles on it or is mixed with other chemical substances and the sanded material is hot after extensive work- ing. You should therefore avoid overheating of products being sanded as well as the appliance and always empty the dust collection box 4 or the dust bag of the vacuum cleaner before work pauses.

Wear a dust mask!
