Electrical connec- tion and operation

The mains voltage must correspond with the voltage on the rating plate!

See the following Fig. for connecting or dis- connecting the power cord of the tool.

Always switch the machine off before connecting or disconnecting the power cable!

The switch (1.1) acts as an ON / OFF switch (I = ON / 0 = OFF).

1.1

Electronic control

The DTS 400 EQ has an electronic ELECTRONIC control with which the rotational speed

can be varied step-free.

This allows the sanding speed to be adapted to the optimum level according to the material concerned (see "Working with the tool").

The speed is set using the rotary control but-

ton (2.1).

Dust extraction

Dust extractors prevent large accumulations of dust in the air in the working environment and dirt collecting in the workplace.

The machines are fitted with inbuilt extraction as standard. The sanding dust is extracted through suction openings in the sanding base (3.5) and trapped in the turbo-filter (3.4).

The turbo-filter has to be changed when it is so full of dust that the extraction power diminishes.

Inserting a turbo-filter

–Push the filter holder with its opening (3.2) as far as it will go onto the extraction nozzle (3.1) of the machine and clamp tight by turning rotary knob (3.3).

–Push the front cardboard section of the turbo-filter with the sealing lip (3.7) onto the extraction nozzle (3.6) of the filter holder.

–Insert rear cardboard section with slot (3.9) onto the retaining strip (3.8) of the filter holder.

External extraction by

an extraction unit

In order to avoid frequent changing of the turbo-filter when carrying longer sanding jobs, it is possible to connect a Festool extractor to the unit instead of using inbuilt extraction.
