possible when tool is already extended to its
medium length
•
Backing pads q
- never run the tool without backing pad G
! replace damaged backing pads immediately
(loosen/fasten pad screw H with hex key C)
! unplug tool before removing/mounting backing
pads
•
Mounting sanding discs w

a sudden impact when tool is switched on
•
Electronic constant speed
Keeps the speed at a constant level as the load
increases
•
Speed control y
For optimal sanding results on different materials
- with wheel T you can adjust the sanding speed
steplessly from minimum to maximum
- always adjust speed to grit size used
- before starting a job, find the optimal speed and grit by
testing out on spare material
•
Holding and guiding the tool u

Sanding
- the amount of material removed is determined by the
speed of the sanding disc and the grit size used
- the speed of the sanding disc decreases relative to the
pressure applied to the tool
