OBJ_BUCH-315-002.book Page 18 Monday, June 11, 2007 12:59 PM
Rough Sanding
Attach a sanding sheet with coarse grain.
Apply only light pressure to the machine so that it runs
at high speed and high material removal is achieved.
Fine Sanding
Attach a sanding sheet with fine grain.
By lightly varying the application pressure or changing
the speed stage (GEX 125-1 AE), the sanding plate
speed can be reduced whereby the orbital action is
maintained.
With moderate pressure, move the machine in a circu-
lar pattern or alternately in lengthwise and crosswise
directions over the workpiece. Do not tilt the machine
to avoid sanding through the workpiece (e. g. when
sanding veneer).
After finishing the working procedure, switch the
power tool off.
Polishing (GEX 125-1 AE)
For the polishing of weathered paint or buffing out
scratches (e. g., acrylic glass), the machine can be
equipped with appropriate polishing accessories
such as lamb's wool bonnet, polishing felt or sponge
(accessories).
Select a low speed for polishing (stage 1 – 2) in order
to avoid excessive heating of the surface.
Apply polishing agent crosswise or in a circular
motion with a polishing sponge and moderate pres-
sure, and then allow it to dry lightly.
Polish the partially dried polishing agent with cross-
wise or circular motions using a lamb's wool polishing
bonnet.
Clean the polishing accessories regularly to ensure
good polishing results. Wash out polishing accesso-
ries with a mild detergent and warm water; do not use
paint thinner.
