Changing Tools - Festool RENOFIX RG 150 E Manual De Instrucciones

7.1 Selection of the tool head
Different cutter and grinding heads are available
to match the usage and area of application. A suit-
able cutter head must be used to achieve optimum
work results – see table on page 21. The speed
selection data contained in the application table
are recommended values and should be tested
through practical tests.
7.2 Tool head change
CAUTION
Always wear protective gloves when working
with the tool head.
The maximum permissible speeds of the

tool used must at least match the maximum
speeds of the machine.
The tool head must not vibrate or be unbal-

anced; otherwise it has to be replaced.
Only use original Festool tool heads.

7.3 Inserting tool head
 Select the suitable tool head on the basis of the
usage and area of application (see Application

bench).
 Insert pin [2-1] through the opening in the
socket wrench [2-2] and unscrew clamping

 Mount tool head [2-4] on the spindle [2-5].
Make sure the position of the spring [2-6] is
correct; it must not slip out.

ing button must only be pressed in with the
spindle at a standstill and the grinder switched
off.
 Turn the spindle until the locking button en-
gages.
 Fully tighten clamping nut [2-3] with the socket
wrench [2-2].

7.4 Removing tool head
CAUTION
The tool head can become very hot during the
work process.
Allow the tool head to cool down before replac-

7.5 Adjusting material removal depth
Release the locking screw on the suction hood
[1-8]. The grinding depth, or material removal
dimension, can be adjusted by turning the mate-
rial removal adjustment lever [1-11] between 0
and 10 mm.
Turning to left = higher grinding depth
Turning to right = lower grinding depth
The setting for the grinding depth depends on the
material to be processed and the tool used.

Reduced material removal quality is caused by
tool wear. The cutter heads are provided with
change wheels, which permit cutter heads to be
reused following wheel replacement.

 Mount 5 grinding wheels [4-4] and shim [4-
5] on the bush [4-6]. These 7 groups must be
reset in the cutter head such that the shim is
the nearest to the outer edge of the cutter head
