Dust/Chip Extraction

 Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered
as carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treat-
ment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable
for the material.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-
rials to be worked.
 Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can
easily ignite.
Connecting the Dust Extraction (see figure A)
Remove the application tool/accessory when mounting the
dust extraction 18 (accessory).
If required, assemble the parts of the dust extraction 18 as
shown in the figure. Position the assembled dust extraction
onto the machine via the tool holder 7. Turn the dust extrac-
tion in such a manner that the cams of the dust extraction en-
gage into the corresponding recesses on the housing. Fasten
the dust extraction to the machine with the retaining clip 16
as shown in the figure.
Pay attention that the felt ring 15 is undamaged and faces
tightly against the sanding plate 12. Replace a damage felt
ring immediately.

Application
For coarse-sanding, e. g. of rough, unplaned beams
and boards
For face sanding and planing small irregularities
For finish and fine sanding of wood
For sanding off paint
For sanding primer (e. g., for removing brush dash-
es, drops of paint and paint run)
For final sanding of primers before coating
Place a vacuum hose 19 (accessory) onto the vacuum con-
nection 17. Connect the vacuum hose 19 with a vacuum
cleaner (accessory). An overview for the connection of vari-
ous vacuum cleaners can be found at the end of these instruc-
tions.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
Operation

Starting Operation

Inserting the battery
 Use only original Bosch lithium-ion batteries with the
voltage listed on the nameplate of your power tool.
Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire
hazard.
Note: Use of batteries not suitable for the machine can lead to
malfunctions of or cause damage to the power tool.
Insert the charged battery 2 into the handle until it can be felt
to engage and faces flush against the handle.
Switching On and Off
To switch on the power tool, push the On/Off switch 5 toward
the front in the direction of the "1" on the switch.
To switch off the power tool, push the On/Off switch 5 to-
ward the rear in the direction of the "0" on the switch.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging
by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". When the battery is
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
