Working with the machine

WARNING
Risk of injury
X
Always secure the workpiece in such a
manner that it cannot move while being
machined.
Observe the following instructions:
– Do not overload the machine by pressing
with excessive force! The best sanding re-
sults are achieved with moderate applica-
tion pressure. The sanding capacity and
[8]
[9]
[1-1] reduces contact of
quality are mainly dependent on the selec-
tion of the correct abrasive.
– Hold the machine with two hands, one on
the motor housing and one on the gear
head.
L Tables A and B show the settings we rec-
ommend for different sanding and polish-
ing work.

Service and maintenance

WARNING
Risk of injury, electric shock
X Always disconnect the mains plug from the
socket before performing maintenance
work on the machine!
X All maintenance and repair work which re-
quires the motor housing to be opened
must only be carried out by an authorised
service workshop.
To ensure constant air circulation, always
keep the cooling air openings in the motor
housing clean and free of blockages.
The machine is equipped with special carbon
brushes. If they are worn, the power is inter-
rupted automatically and the machine comes
to a standstill.
9.1 Sanding pad brake
The rubber collar [10-1]
and the stop ring [10-2]
vent uncontrolled excessive turning of the
sanding pad during eccentric motion (fine
sanding). As these parts are subject to wear
in the course of time, they must be replaced
when reduced braking force is observed (for
order no., see spare parts list).
10 Accessories
Use only original Festool accessories and
Festool consumable material intended for
this machine because these components are
designed specifically for the machine. Using
accessories and consumable material from
other suppliers will most likely affect the
quality of your working results and limit any
warranty claims. Machine wear or your own
personal workload may increase depending
on the application. Protect yourself and your
machine, and preserve your warranty claims
by always using original Festool accessories
and Festool consumable material!
