Changing the sanding sheet (see figure C)
Only use the power tool with a sanding sheet attached
u
to it.
Remove dirt and dust from the sanding plate (3), e.g. with a
brush, before attaching a new sanding sheet.
To ensure optimum dust extraction, make sure that the
punched holes in the sanding sheet are aligned with the
drilled holes in the sanding plate.
The sanding plate (3) is fitted with a hook-and-loop fasten-
ing, allowing sanding sheets with a hook-and-loop backing to
be secured quickly and easily.
Tap the hook-and-loop fastening of the sanding plate (3) be-
fore fitting the sanding sheet (4) to facilitate maximum adhe-
sion.
The sanding sheet (4) is equipped with two spare tips. If the
sanding sheet tip is worn, replace it with a spare sanding
sheet tip.
Position the sanding sheet (4) so that it is flush with one a
side of the sanding plate (3), then place the sanding sheet
on the sanding plate and press it on firmly.
To remove the sanding sheet (4), take hold of it by an edge
and pull it away from the sanding plate (3).
Choosing the sanding sheet
Different sanding sheets are available, depending on the ma-
terial you are working with and the required surface removal
rate:
Application
For working all materials such as wood, paint,
filler, varnish, hard and softwood, and chip-
board
For pre-sanding, e.g. of rough and un-
even beams and boards
For surface sanding and levelling of
slight irregularities
For finishing and fine sanding of hard
woods

Practical advice

u
u
The material removal rate when sanding is primarily determ-
ined by the choice of sanding sheet.
Only immaculate sanding sheets achieve good sanding per-
formance and make the power tool last longer.
Be sure to apply consistent contact pressure in order to in-
crease the lifetime of the sanding sheets.
Excessively increasing the contact pressure will not lead to
increased sanding performance, rather it will cause more
severe wear of the power tool and of the sanding sheet.
To sand corners, edges and hard-to-reach areas accurately,
you can also work with the tips alone or with an edge of the
sanding plate.
Use only original Bosch sanding accessories.
