TurboBoost switch
Actuate the TurboBoost switch (3) during operation to
switch on additional power reserves for maximum
material removal rate.
7.4
Dust extraction
To optimise the dust extraction performance, fit the
sanding disc such that the holes on the sanding disc
(9) and sanding plate (11) are aligned.
Own extraction system: Fit the dust collection box
(6) onto the exhaust nozzle until it engages. To
remove it, pull out the dust collection box (6).
To optimise the extraction performance, empty the
dust collection box (6) in good time and clean the filter
(8).
External dust extraction: Fit a suitable dust
extractor.
8. Cleaning, Maintenance
Empty dust collection box (6).
- Open cleaning flap (7).
- Remove fluted filter (8) and knock off dust stuck to
filter or remove with brush.
You can also clean fluted filter (8) under running
water (but make sure to dry the filter before use!).
- Empty the dust collection box (6), clean it thor-
oughly and ensure that any remaining dust is
removed.
- When inserting, ensure that the fluted filter (8) is
inserted in the lateral guides.
Clean the machine regularly. This includes
vacuum cleaning the ventilation louvres on the motor.
Replacing worn sanding plate (11)
- Remove fixing screws (on lower side of sanding
plate).
- Take off sanding plate.
- Sanding plate (as a spare part), see page 2.
- Mount sanding plate.
- Re-insert the fixing screws on the lower side of the
sanding plate (the screw must be inserted in the
existing thread pitch) and tighten (tightening torque
= 3.5 Nm +/- 0.2 Nm).

10. Repairs
Repairs to electrical tools must be carried out by qual-
ified electricians ONLY!
If the mains connection cable of this machine is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or
an authorized service centre to avoid hazard.
If you have Metabo electrical tools that require
8
, old coats of paint . . . . . . . . 3-4
repairs, please contact your Metabo service centre.

11. Environmental Protection
Observe national regulations on environmentally
compatible disposal and on the recycling of disused
machines, packaging and accessories.
Only for EU countries: Never dispose of power
tools in your household waste! In accordance
with European Guideline 2002/96/EC on used
electronic and electric equipment and its implemen-
tation in national legal systems, used power tools
must be collected separately and handed in for envi-
ronmentally compatible recycling.

Emission values
Using these values, you can estimate the emis-
sions from this power tool and compare these with
the values emitted by other power tools. The actual
values may be higher or lower, depending on the
particular application and the condition of the tool or
power tool. In estimating the values, you should also
include work breaks and periods of low use. Based
on the estimated emission values, specify protective
measures for the user - for example, any organisa-
tional steps that must be put in place.
