Adjusting The Suction Power - Festool PLANEX LHS 2 225 EQI Notice D'utilisation

speed to be optimally adjusted to suit the mate­
rial you are working on.
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed is kept constant
through electronic control. This means that, if
the machine is used as intended (reasonable
contact pressure), a constant sanding speed is
achieved.
Overheating protection
To avoid the power tool overheating, the power
consumption is limited at an excessive temper­
ature (e.g. if the pressure is too high while
working). If the temperature continues to rise,
the power tool switches off. It can only be
switched on again once the power tool has
cooled sufficiently.
Overload protection
The power tool will switch off if the backing pad
becomes jammed or if the motor becomes
overloaded, see also Section
7.2 Changing the abrasives [6]
CAUTION
Deteriorated suction power and increased
dust exposure
Heath hazard posed by dust
► The hole pattern in the abrasive must be
aligned with the holes in the interface pad.
► Only use recommended abrasives with the
appropriate hole pattern.
Compatible StickFix abrasives are quick and
easy to attach to the interface pad.
► Press the abrasive [6-1] onto the interface
pad [6-2].
7.3 Changing the interface pad [7]
CAUTION
Decreasing StickFix coating adhesion
Risk of injury from flying parts
► Check the StickFix coating on the interface
pad and the abrasive regularly for wear.
► Replace interface pad/abrasive with worn
StickFix coating.
The interface pad is attached to the backing pad
with eight screws.
► Remove the abrasive.
► Loosen screws by turning the screwhead
or a coin (e.g. a euro) anticlockwise.
Remove the interface pad [7-1].
►
13 .
► Vacuum the backing pad and clean with
a brush if necessary.
► Place a new interface pad on the backing
pad.
► Insert all eight screws one after the oth­
er.
The interface pad is optimally aligned.
► – Tighten all screws clockwise in a
crosswise sequence.
7.4 Replacing the backing pad [8]
CAUTION
Worn backing pad, backing pad revs up
Risk of injury from flying parts
► Check backing pad regularly for wear.
► Change backing pads if necessary.
The backing pad is attached to the power tool
with eight screws.
► To remove the abrasive and interface pad,
see Sections 7.2
► Loosen the screws by turning a suitable
screwdriver anticlockwise.
► Remove the backing pad [8-1] carefully
by gently pulling it. Take care to ensure that
no dirt enters the eccentric housing.
► Extract dirt particles if necessary.
► Place new backing pad so that the open­
ings in the backing pad match with the
screw threads.
► Insert all eight screws one after the oth­
er.
► – Tighten all screws clockwise in a
crosswise sequence and check that they are
securely in place.
7.5

Adjusting the suction power

The long-reach sander can adhere itself to the
sanding surface, which helps you work more ef­
fortlessly.
► Set a low suction power.
► First, switch on the power tool and then
place it on the sanding surface.
► Slowly increase the suction power until a
noticeable application pressure is reached.
The suction regulator [1-15] can be
used to adjust the suction power
according to the sanding surface.
