The switch [1-3]is an on/off switch (I = ON, 0 = OFF).

The circuit closer can only be actuated if the change-over switch [1-2]is in an en- gaged position.

In case of a power failure or if the mains connector is removed, move the on/off switch immediately to the Off position. This prevents uncontrolled restarting.

Extension Cord

If an extension cord is required, it must have sufficient cross-section to prevent an exces- sive drop in voltage or overheating. An ex- cessive drop in voltage reduces the output and can lead to failure of the motor. The table below shows you the correct cord diameter as a function of the cord length for this tool.

Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.

Never use two extension cords together. In- stead, use one long one.

The lower the AWG number, the stronger the cord.

WARNING

Risk of injury, electric shock

XAlways pull the plug out of the socket be- fore performing any type of work on the machine!

Electronics

The machine features full-wave electronics with the following features:

Smooth start-up

The electronically controlled smooth start-up ensures that the machine starts up jolt-free.

Speed control

You can regulate the speed steplessly with the adjusting wheel [1-6]in the speed range (see Technical data). This enables you to op- timise the cutting speed to suit the surface (see table).

Constant speed

The preselected motor speed remains con- stant through electronic control to ensure a uniform cutting speed even when under load.

Temperature cut-out

The machine power supply is limited and the speed reduced if the motor exceeds a certain temperature. The machine continues operat-

ing at reduced power to allow the ventilator to cool the motor quickly. If the machine temperature exceeds the maximum permit- ted value for longer periods, the machine switches off completely after approx. 40 sec- onds and can only be switched on again once the motor has cooled sufficiently.

Setting sanding motion - Fig. [3]

+

The change-over switch [1-2]can be used to set three different sanding motions.

This change-over can only be carried out with the sanding pad stationary because the switch is locked during operation.

Coarse sanding, polishing - ROTEX rota- ry motion

The Rotex rotary motion is a combi- nation of rotary and eccentric mo- tions. This position is selected for sanding with high output (coarse sanding) and polishing.
