tronics switch the tool off when it reaches
a critical motor temperature. Let the tool
cool down for approx. 3-5 minutes before
using it again. The tool requires less time
to cool down if it is running, i.e. in neutral
position.
Tool settings
Always remove the power plug
from the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
Dust extraction
Always connect the tool to a dust ex-
tractor.
You can connect a Festool extractor with an
extractor hose diameter of 27 mm to the
dust extraction port (4.1).
Edge protector
The edge protector (5.1) prevents the sand-
ing pad from touching the edge perpendicu-
lar to a surface (e.g. when sanding along a
wall), thereby preventing the machine from
rebounding.
Assembly: Slide the edge protector onto the
machine until it latches into place.
Sanding motion
You can use the switch (6.1) to set two dif-
ferent sanding motions.
The change can only be made
when the sanding pad is stationary, as the
switch is locked in place during operation
for safety reasons.
Rotex rotary motion (coarse sanding,
polishing)
The Rotex rotary motion is a combi-
nation of rotary and eccentric mo-
tions. This motion is recommended
for sanding with aggressive material
