Setting / Adjustment
4.1 Mains connection
Prior to commissioning make sure that the mains
voltage complies with the operating voltage stated on
the machine's rating plate.
4.2 Dust extraction
Connect the machine to a suitable external dust
extractor during all work generating a considerable
amount of dust. The air velocity must be at least 20
m/s (65.6 ft / sec.).
The internal diameter of hose connector is 35 mm ( 1
3/8 in.).
Correct dust extraction can only be guaranteed if an
abrasive grid or punched sanding paper is used. As
the sander is equipped with its own dust extraction, it
is possible to work with the sander's own dust
extraction and the filter bag supplied for short
assignments and in inaccessible areas. Make sure
that the filter bag is replaced on a regular basis (Fig.
7 and 8).
4.3 Abrasive replacement
Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
Attaching abrasives with Velcro® fastening
(Fig. 2)
The Velcro® fastening allows for a quick changing of
the abrasive 6
Free the grinding disk 4 of dust and dirt before
fitting a new abrasive.
When using abrasive grids, the protective layer
5 should be fitted to the grinding disk to prevent
excessive wear.
When pressing the protective layer into place,
pay attention that the punched holes match
those of the sanding pad.
Only use original MAFELL
abrasives.
4.4 Grinding disk
