Switch (2.1) is an on/off switch. For continuous
use it can be engaged with the lateral locking
button (2.2). Pressing the switch again releases
the lock.

Electronic control

The ETS 150/3 EQ, ETS 150/5 EQ has an
electronic control with which the
ELECTRONIC
rotational speed can be varied step-free.
This allows the sanding speed to be adapted to
the optimum level according to the material
concerned. The speed is set using the rotary
control button (2.3).
The numbers on the rotary control button
represent approximately the following strokes
per minute:
Dust extraction
Dust extractors
accumulations of dust in the air in the
working environment and dirt collecting
in the workplace.

Inboard extraction

The machines are fitted with inbuilt extraction
as standard. The sanding dust is extracted
through suction openings in the sanding base
(3.4) and trapped in the turbo-filter (3.2).

The turbo-filter has to be changed when it is
so full of dust that the extraction power
diminishes.
Inserting a turbo-filter
- Push the front cardboard section of the tur-
bo-filter with the sealing lip (3.1) onto the
extraction nozzle (3.8) of the filter holder
- Insert rear cardboard section with slot (3.3)
onto the retaining strip (3.9) of the filter hol-
der
- Push the filter holder with its opening (3.6)
as far as it will go onto the extraction nozzle
(3.5) of the machine and clamp tight by
turning rotary knob (3.7).
External extraction by an
extraction unit
In order to avoid frequent changing of the tur-
bo-filter when carrying longer sanding jobs, it
is possible to connect a Festool extractor to
the unit instead of using inbuilt extraction.
In this case, the extraction pipe (Ø 27 mm
(4.1)) of the extraction unit is connected to
the suction nozzle.

Attaching sanding material

The appropriate Stickfix sanding paper
and Stickfix sanding felt can be fastened
quickly and easily onto the Stickfix
sanding base.
The self-adhesive sanding material (5.2) is
simply pressed onto the sanding base (5.1) and
held safely in place by the Stickfix sanding base
velcro surface.
