Attaching the abrasive

Stickfi x is a hook-and-loop fastening sys-
tem. Stickfi x sanding pads allow the use
of self-adhesive hook-and-loop abrasives
such as Stickfi x sandpapers and sanding
cloths.
Simply press the abrasive onto the sanding pad and
pull it off again after use.
aged Stickfi x hook-and-loop coating. Before use,
check that the coating has not been damaged by
improper use (such as over heating).

Securing polishing attachments

To prevent damage, use PoliStick polishing attach-
ments (sponges, felt, lambswool bonnets) only with
the special polishing pad fi tted on the tool instead of
a sanding pad. Like StickFix abrasives, the PoliStick
polishing attachments are simply pressed onto the
polishing pad and pulled off after use.
The auxiliary handle (Accessories, 8.1) can be
screwed onto either the right or left of the gear
head.
