ISO 15 744/EN ISO 8662:

Uncertainty
The noise level can exceed 85 dB(A) dur-
ing work.
Wear ear protectors!
The emission values specifi ed (vibration, noise)
were measured in accordance with the test con-
ditions stipulated in EN ISO 15 744/EN ISO 8662
and are intended for machine comparisons. They
are also used for making preliminary estimates
regarding vibration and noise loads during opera-
tion. The emission values specifi ed refer to the
main applications for which the air tool is used.
If the air tool is used for other applications, with
other tools or is not maintained suffi ciently prior
to operation, however, the vibration and noise load
may be higher when the tool is used. Take into ac-
count any machine idling times and downtimes to
estimate these values more accurately for a speci-
fi ed time period. This may signifi cantly reduce the
load during the machine operating period.

Compressed-air supply and commis-
sioning
Make sure that the pneumatic tool is
switched off when you connect the com-
pressed-air supply.
3.1
Compressed-air processing
The Festool service unit VE should always be used
to ensure that Festool pneumatic tools function
correctly.
Consisting of a fi lter, control unit, condensation
drain and lubricator, the service unit cleans and
lubricates the compressed air and keeps it free
of condensation.
Here, the lubricator should be set so that a drop
is applied to the compressed air approx. every
7-10 minutes.
Damage that occurs as a result of incorrect
compressed-air processing is excluded from
warranty claims.
We recommend a service unit with a 3/8" con-
nector, when up to two Festool pneumatic tools
are used.
A compressor that supplies at 500 l/min and at
an operating pressure of 6 bar should be used to
supply compressed-air.
The diameter of the piping system must be suf-
fi ciently large (at least 9 mm).

Pressing the lever (2.1) switches on the pneumatic
tool.
Releasing the lever switches the machine off
again.

You can regulate the rotational speed steplessly
between 6500 and 8000 rpm or 6000 and 7000 rpm
(LEX 2 150/11) using the adjusting wheel (2.2).
This enables you to optimise the cutting speed to
suit the material.

Only use sanding pads with an undamaged burr
layer.
The sanding pads are available in three degrees
of hardness to suit the type of application:
- Hard: high edge strength, for removing coarse

Machine settings
The machine should always be discon-
nected from the compressed air supply
before any work is carried out on the ma-
chine.
Speed adjustment
Suction unit
Sanding dust is extracted through the
extraction channels in the sanding pad
directly to the material removal point. To
guarantee optimized dust extraction, we
recommend using Festool extractors with
automatic switch-on/switch-off device for
compressed-air machines.
In order to prevent damage to the pneu-
matic motor, dust extraction must not be
carried out on the pneumatic tool when
it is at standstill.
Sanding pads
The sanding pads are different in weight,
depending on their diameter. Fitting sand-
ing pads of incorrect size causes excessive
vibration of the machine.
