Sanding Sheets without Velcro Backing
(see figure B )
Lightly lift the clamping lever 6 and unlatch it.
Slide the sanding sheet 13 under the open
clamping bracket 8 ( ) and reinsert the clamping
lever 6 ( ).
Make sure that the sanding sheet 13 faces firmly
against the sanding plate. Fold the sanding sheet
around and clamp the other end in the same
manner.
Sanding sheets without holes, e. g. from rolls or
by the meter, can be punctured with the perforat-
ing tool 22* for use with dust extraction (see
figure F ).
Replacing the Sanding Plate

The standard sanding plate 7 with velcro backing
can be exchanged against various specialty
sanding plates (accessories).
For this, unscrew the six screws 23 with a screw-
driver and remove the sanding plate.
Attach the desired sanding plate and insert
screws 23, or 26 respectively, when using the
thin, extended sanding plate 24.

Slide the extraction adapter 15 onto the outlet
piece 16 and make sure that the latches engage.
To remove, press the latches together at the rear
and pull off the extraction adapter.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial to be worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detri-
mental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Dust Bag (see figure
For clean working, a dust bag 18 (accessory) can
be used.
Pull out the plastic slider 17 at the bottom side of
the handle completely and attach the dust bag 18
onto the extraction neck. The plastic slider 17

Internal Vacuuming with Dust Box
(see figure
Attaching the dust box:
Before assembling the dust box 5, pull out the
plastic wedge 17. Place the dust container onto
the outlet piece 16 and allow it to notch; make
sure that the holder 19 grips the plastic
wedge 17.
Emptying the dust box:
Actuate the latching lever 20 and pull off the dust
box 5 toward the bottom.
Before opening the dust box 5, it is recom-
mended to loosen the dust from the filter element
by gently striking it against a firm support.
Grasp the dustbox by the recessed grip, fold the
filter element (micro filtersystem) 21 upwards and
empty the dust box 5. Clean the thin plates of the
filter system with a soft brush.
Observe correct mains voltage: The voltage of
the power source must agree with the voltage
specified on the nameplate of the machine.
Equipment marked with 230 V can also be con-
nected to 220 V.

The required oscillation rate is dependent on the
material and is to be determined by a practical
trial (See the applications table at the end of the
operating instructions).
After longer periods of working at low speed, al-
low the machine to cool down by running it for ap-
prox. 3 minutes at maximum speed with no load.
