Constant speed
The preselected motor speed remains con-
stant through electronic control. This en-
sures a uniform cutting speed even when
under load.
Overload safety device
In extreme applications, the current con-
sumption may far exceed the permitted
nominal value. A "safety coupling" integrated
in an electronic overload safety device
switches off the motor and prevents it from
burning out. Motor operation resumes im-
mediately after the load is relieved.
Temperature cut-out
To protect against overheating (burning out
of motor), an electronic temperature moni-
toring system has been installed. Prior to
reaching a critical motor temperature, the
safety electronics switches off the motor.
After a cooling time of approx. 3-5 minutes,
the machine can be operated again at full
load. The machine requires less time to cool
down when idling.
LED indicator
The rotary sander is fi tted with an electronic
adjusting wheel and a green and red LED [1-
3]. A green lit LED indicates that the rotary
sander is operating in normal mode. A red
lit LED indicates that the motor is operating
at approx. 70% overload. The overload or
temperature cut-out switches off the motor
if overloaded for longer periods.
However, alternately fl ashing green and red
LEDs indicate that the brushes are com-
pletely worn (remaining working hours max.
10 hours). In this case, have an authorised
after-sales service workshop replace the
carbon brushes the next day. Always replace
these brushes with special carbon brushes
available in pairs otherwise the LED indica-
tors will not work.
7.2 Changing the brushes
Electronics
setting
Loosen the screw [2-1].
Swivel the silver cover [2-2] down.
3 - 5
Press and hold the spindle lock [2-3] and
unscrew the hexagon nut (size 24) on the
2 - 3
brush.
Insert a different brush.
2 - 3
Tighten the hexagon nut to secure the
brush and then close the silver cover.
7.3 Adjusting the texture depth
Set the required texture depth using the
thumbwheel [1-6].
7.4 Dust extraction
Breathing in dust damages the
respiratory passage.
You can connect a Festool extractor to the
extractor connector [1-7]. The extractor
hose in the Festool extractor is 27 mm in
diameter.

The RUSTOFIX gives beams or wooden pan-
elling a rustic texture.
Working method
After the fi rst working procedure with the
wire brush LD 85, protruding fi bres give the
wooden surface a rough feel. In the second
working procedure, plastic bristles KD 80
sand the textured surface to lend a smooth
fi nish.
Always guide the machine evenly and in
the direction of the grain.
Hold the machine with both hands to en-
sure safe guidance.
Do not overload the machine by pressing
with excessive force! The best results are
achieved with moderate application pres-
sure.
For brushes LD 85 and BG 85, use the
accompanying centring disc.
CAUTION
Always connect the machine to a dust
extractor.
When performing work that generates
dust, always wear a dust mask.
