Initial start up
Fitting the sanding belt
DANGER! Risk of injury! Pull out the
power plug before conducting any work on
the tool.
WARNING! Risk of injury! Only use
sanding belts approved by the manufacturer.
Do not use worn, torn or badly damaged
sanding belts.
CAUTION! Risk of injury! Observe the
specified direction of operation of the belt!
The direction of operation printed on the
sanding belt must match the directional
arrow on the tool (12).
► P. 4, fig. 3
– Fold the tensioning lever (5) forwards.
– Position the sanding belt carefully over both guide
rollers (13).
– Fold the tensioning lever (5) back.
Setting the belt run
► P. 3, fig. 2
– Turn the adjusting screw (10) until the grinding
belt is running flush with the housing edge.
Setting the angle of the front handle
– Loosen the locking lever (3).
– Tilt the front handle (2) to the required position.
– Tighten the locking lever (3) again.
Dust extraction
WARNING! Danger of fire! When sand-
ing metals, do not use a dust collection
device! Hot metal participles may ignite the
material of the container.
► P. 4, fig. 4
– Operating without dust extraction: Fit the dust
bag (14) firmly to the ducts (9).
Operation
Check before switching on!
Check to make sure the unit is in a safe operating
condition:
– Check to make sure there are no visible defects.
– Check to make sure all components are securely
mounted.
Switching on and off
Activating
– Depress and hold the On/Off switch (6).
26
Switching to continuous operation
– Depress the On/Off switch (6).
– Hold down the locking switch (8).
– Release the On/Off switch (6).
Deactivating continuous operation
– Depress the On/Off switch (6). The locking
switch (8) will pop back out.
Deactivating
– Release the On/Off switch (6).
Electronic control of revolutions
The unit is fitted with an electronic revolution control
function.
NOTICE! Risk of damage to the unit!
The motor may overheat in the event of
permanent heavy loads and low revolu-
tions. Run the motor at higher revolutions
in idle to allow it to cool down.
The revolutions can be set to any level you require
(revolution range: ► Technical data – p. 27).
• Rotate revolution regulator (7) to the left to
increase the revolutions.
• Rotate revolution regulator to the right to
decrease the revolutions.
Sanding
DANGER! Danger to life due to electri-
cal shock! The tool may only be used for
dry sanding.
WARNING! Danger of fire! When sand-
ing metals, do not use a dust collection
device! Hot metal participles may ignite the
material of the container.
CAUTION! Risk of injury! The tool may
not be in contact with the work piece when
you switch it on or off.
Note: The grinding belt cover (11) can be
raised in order to grind inaccessible spots
– Always clamp work pieces or secure firmly.
– Hold the device with both hands.
– Switch the unit on and apply an even pressure to
the surface to be sanded.
Note: Excessive pressure does not result
in greater sanding performance, instead it
causes greater wear on the tool and sand-
ing belt.
Information regarding grinding
• Grind at moderate speed in parallel and overlap-
ping grinding paths.
• Grind in grain direction; crosswise grinding marks
reduce surface quality.
• Particularly when grinding off paint residues it
may occur that these residues melt, thus smear-
ing the material surface and the grinding belt.
Therefore, use a dust extractor.
• A grinding belt having already been used to process
metal may no longer be used for other materials.
