5. Initial Operation

Before plugging in the device, check that the
rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as
specified on the rating label, match your power
supply.
6. Use
6.1 Collet chucks
The tool's shank diameter must correspond
exactly to the collet bore of the collet chuck (1)!
Various collet chucks are available for different
shank diameters. See Accessories section.
6.2 Fitting the tools
Pull the mains plug from the socket.
Only use tools that are suited to the no-load
speed of your machine. See Technical Speci-
fications.
The tool's shank diameter must correspond
exactly to the collet bore of the collet chuck (1)!
In the case of mounted points or mandrels, the
maximum open shank length l
permissible length specified by the manufacturer
must not be exceeded!
Insert the tool (with the full length of the shank) in the
collet chuck (1).
(3) Bring the spindle to a standstill with the 13-mm
spanner provided for this purpose.
Using the 19-mm spanner, tighten the collet chuck
nut (2).
If there is no tool inserted in the collet chuck,
you can tighten the collet chuck manually
rather than with the spanner.
6.3 Switching On and Off
Always guide the machine with both hands.
Switch on first, then guide the accessory
towards the workpiece.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the
tool off when the plug is removed from the
mains socket or if there has been a power cut.

Grinding, sanding, polishing or using wire
brushes: Press down the machine evenly and
move it from side to side over the surface.
Routing: Press down the machine evenly.
Separating:
Always work against the run of the disc
(see illustration). Otherwise there is
the danger of the machine kicking
back from the cut out of control. Guide
the machine evenly at a speed suit-
able for the material being processed. Do not tilt,
apply excessive force or sway from side to side.
7. Cleaning
7.1 Motor cleaning
To clean the motor, apply jets of compressed air
through the rear ventilation slots of the machine
regularly, frequently and thoroughly. The machine
must be held firmly in this case.
8. Accessories

Use only accessories that fulfil the requirements
and specifications listed in these operating instruc-
tions.
Fit accessories securely. Secure the machine if it is
operated in a bracket. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
