LVacuum dust extraction
Warning! Danger of fire! There is the danger of fire when working with electrical devices that have a dustbox or can be connected to a vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the wood dust in the dust extraction bag (or in the vacuum‘s dust bag) may ignite, e.g. as a result of flying sparks generated when abrading metals or metal objects left in wood. This can happen particularly if the wood dust is mixed with paint residue or other chemicals and the abraded particles are hot from prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must empty the dust box and the vacuum cleaner’s dust bag before taking a break or stopping work and always avoid overheating of the abraded particles and the tool.
Wear a dust mask!

LAttaching / detaching sanding sheets
Attaching
jSanding sheets are easily attached to the backing plate O by means of the hook and pile fastening.
Detaching
jSimply pull the sanding sheet off the backing plate O (see Fig. C).
LRotating the backing plate
jSwitch off the tool.
jRotate the backing plate O into the desired position (see Fig. D).
LAdvice on use
jSwitch the tool on before placing it against the workpiece.
jApply light sanding pressure.
jAdvance the tool at an even rate.
jWork in parallel and overlapping widths.
Sanding and surfaces
The sanding output and the quality of the surface finish are determined by the grade of grit on the sanding sheet.
Tips and tricks
