13. Avoid contact with the sanding sheet while the appliance is running!
15. Do not use the appliance without a sanding sheet fitted.
16. Never use the appliance for other purposes and only original parts/accessories. Using attachments or accessory tools other than those recommended in
the operating instructions can lead to a risk of injury.

Operation
Attaching the dust bag
Slide the dust bag onto the back of the sander. Snap it in place using pressure.
The collection of the dust will only work if the sandpaper has holes that line up with the 8 dust collection holes in the backing pad.
Installing and replacing sanding backing plates
Fix the sanding base plate on the grinder (the base plate only fits one side);
The groove in the spindle must line up with the hole in the grinding plate;
Install the washer and tighten the screw with the supplied hex wrench (5);
To remove / change, just follow the previous steps in reverse order.
Installation and replacement of sanding sheets
Use only sanding sheets with the correct dimensions and perforated holes.
Place the sanding sheet on the base.
Make sure the holes in the sanding papers match the base plate.
To remove the sanding sheet, you only need to pull it out.
Operating instructions
When working with the orbital sander multi, you should consider some precautions and operating procedures:
1. Hold the sander firmly. Loss of control of the sander can cause serious injury;
2. When working on loose or small parts, use fixing devices to secure the parts firmly and securely;
3. Do not apply excessive pressure to the sander against the workpiece/object. If the speed decreases abruptly, reduce the pressure on the sander immediately;
4. Never put down the orbital sander before the base plate is completely stopped;
5. Wear hearing protection when using the sander. Noise exposure may cause hearing loss;
6. Switch the sander off immediately if any of the following problems occur:
- Leakage of lubricant through ventilation holes;
- Damage to the sander housing;
- Damage to the ON/OFF switch;
- Appearance of smoke or characteristic burning smell;
Starting and stopping the sander
1. Before plugging in the power cord (4), make sure the ON/OFF switch (3) is turned off;
2. Hold the sander by the handle;
3. To switch on the sander, press the ON/OFF switch (1) to position I;
4. To switch off the sander, press the ON/OFF switch, to position 0;
Sander handling
1. Place the entire surface area of the sanding sheet on the material;
2. Switch on the orbital sander multi, and move it with some pressure on the workpiece, making circular/transverse and linear movements;
3. Use a thicker sanding sheet for greater material removal and a thinner sanding sheet for finishing stages. To decide on the best type of sanding sheet to use,
perform tests before use on the final product.
