Sanding Motion; Choice And Installation Of Sanding Pads - Festool ROTEX RO 150 FEQ Manual De Instrucciones

6 .1
You can use the switch (6.1) to set two different
sanding motions.
(fi ne sanding) to Rotex rotary motion (coarse sand-
ing) can only be made when the sanding pad is
stationary, as the switch is locked in place during
operation for reasons of safety.
Rotex rotary motion (coarse sanding, polishing)
The Rotex rotary motion is a combination of
rotary and eccentric motions. This motion
is recommended for sanding with aggres-
sive material removal (coarse sanding) and
polishing.
Slide the switch (6.1) into the right position.
Eccentric motion (fi ne sanding)
This motion is recommended for sanding
with low material removal for a scratch-free
fi nish (fi ne sanding).
Press the switch (6.1) downwards and push it into
the left-hand position.
The tool can be fi tted with three sanding pads of
different hardnesses depending on the surface to
be sanded.
Hard: Coarse sanding on surfaces, sanding at
edges.
Soft: Universal use for coarse and fi ne sanding for
fl at and curved surfaces.
Super-soft: Fine sanding on formed parts, curves,
radii. Do not use on edges!
