Additional safety notes
a) Connect a vacuum cleaner to the supplied adapter
before starting your operations.
b) Attention! Keep away grinding dust from open Iire.
Dust may be explosive.
c) Always wear goggles and a dust mask when grin-
ding, in particular du ring overhead work and when
processing critical materials! When grinding certain
materials (e .g.lead paint, certain types of wood and
metaI) harmful or noxious dust may be generated.
Touching or breathing in such dust may imply risks
for the operator or people in the vicinity.
Notes regarding vibration and noise emissions
Reduce noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum!

Sandpaper
Selection
1. The grain size of the sandpaper is specified on its
rear side. The smaller the specified number, the
coarser the graining.
2. Use sandpaper with coarse grain for rough grinding,
and sandpaper with fine grain for finishing. We re-
cornrnend sandpapers with aluminium oxide, silicon
carbide or other synthetic abrasives.
3. lf you can chose between sandpapers with different
graining, you should start with coarsegraining sand-
paper and complete the grinding process with the
finest possible graining. Thus you will get good and
smooth grinding results.
How to apply and replace sandpaper
Apply the sandpaper (13) to the grinding plate (9)
using the Velcro strip mechanism.
1. Align the sandpaper (13) with the grinding plate (9)
and press it on evenly.
2. PuII the sandpaper (13) off the grinding plate (9) and
replace it with a new one I another one (Fig.5).
Dust extraction
WARNING! Harmfull noxious gases may be generated
when e.g. lead-containing paint is processed. These
gases entail a risk for the operator and the persons in
the vicinity!
Therefore only use the power tool in combination with
a dust extraction unit, and protect yourself and other
persons in the working area with additional suitable
personal protective equipment!
When working with this power tool, a Iot of dust is ge-
nerated. The dust extraction unit is very useful if you
want to keep your workplace clean. lt is possible to
combine the extraction system or a vacuum cleaner
with the extraction hose (11) which is connected to the
adapter for dust extraction.
1. Align the nose at the hoseend with the extraction ho-
se adapter (12) (Fig.3), insert the end and secure it
