BACKING PAD INSTALLATION
Your BOSCH corner/detail sander is
equipped with a hook-and-loop rubber
backing pad which may be removed and
attached without the need of additional
tools. To remove, push the pad lock button
to the right as far as possible and pull the
backing pad free of the sander. (For
maximum use of abrasive, rotate pad 120
degrees when tip of abrasive becomes
worn.) To replace, push backing pad back
into place, and secure with the pad lock
button.
When sanding in extremely tight areas, such
as louvered panels, optional extension
plates are available.
Your Bosch sander uses hook-and-loop
backed accessories, which firmly grip the
backing pad when applied with moderate
pressure. To change, merely peel off the old
accessory, remove dust from the backing

Operating Instructions
pad if necessary, and press the new
accessory in place. Be sure to align the
sanding sheet holes with the holes in the
backing pad to allow the dust extraction
system to function.
After considerable service the backing pad
surface will become worn, and the backing
pad must be replaced when it no longer
offers a firm grip. If you are experiencing
premature wearout of the backing pad
facing, decrease the amount of pressure you
are applying during operation of the tool.
DUST EXTRACTION
The integral dust port collects sanding dust
in a shop vacuum when fitted with the
optional Bosch Airsweep hose. However,
the sander may be operated without the
dust collection system if desired, as it will
not harm the tool. See your Bosch dealer
for optional Bosch Airsweep accessories.
This machine is particularly suitable for one
handed operation, and access to corners
and edges that are otherwise difficult to
reach and require hand sanding. Depending
on the task, you may grip the rear handle
alone, or the rear handle and the top of the
ergonomically contoured soft grip motor
housing, which is designed for this purpose.
Profiles and grooves may be finished using
the tip or edge of the selected accessory,
which should occasionally be rotated during
use to distribute the wear on the accessory
and backing pad surface.
Always be certain that smaller workpieces
are securely fastened to a bench or other
support. Larger panels may be held in place
by hand on a bench or sawhorses.
SANDING: Open-coat aluminum oxide
sanding sheets are recommended for most
wood or metal sanding applications, as this
synthetic material cuts quickly and wears
well. Some applications, such as metal
finishing or cleaning, require special abrasive
pads which are available from your dealer.
For best results, use Bosch sanding and
polishing accessories which are of superior
quality and are carefully selected to produce
professional quality results with your sander.
The following suggestions may be used as a
general guide for abrasive selection, but the
best results will be obtained by sanding a
test sample of the workpiece first.
