CAUTION
Heating of the Plug it connection if bayonet
fitting is not completely locked
Risk of burns
► Before switching on the power tool, make
sure that the bayonet fitting at the mains
cable is closed fully and locked.
► Connect and disconnect the mains power
cable - [4].
► To connect the suction hose [5], see also
Section 8.6.
Using a special vacuum sleeve, the PLANEX
suction hose guarantees a permanent fixing
and better protection against kinking.

8.1
Motor and electronics
The power tool is equipped with a brushless
EC-TEC motor for a long service life and power
electronics with the following properties:
4
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
function ensures that the power tool starts up
smoothly.
Speed control
You can use the adjusting wheel [1-9] to contin
uously adjust the speed within the speed range
(see Section 5). This enables the sanding speed
to be optimally adjusted to suit the material you
are working on.
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed is kept constant
through electronic control. This means that, if
the machine is used as intended (reasonable
contact pressure), a constant sanding speed is
achieved.
Overheating protection
To avoid the power tool overheating, the power
consumption is limited at an excessive temper
ature (e.g. if the pressure is too high while
working). If the temperature continues to rise,
the power tool switches off. It can only be
switched on again once the power tool has
cooled sufficiently.
Overload protection
The power tool will switch off if the backing pad
becomes jammed or if the motor becomes
overloaded, see also Section 14.
8.2
Changing the abrasives [6]
5
Deteriorated suction power and increased
dust exposure
Heath hazard posed by dust
► The hole pattern in the abrasive must be
aligned with the holes in the interface pad.
► Only use recommended abrasives with the
appropriate hole pattern.
