Dust extraction (fig. C)
Since woodworking with a sander
produces dust, always install a dustbag
designed in compliance with the
applicable directives regarding dust
emission.
Do not use a dustbag or vacuum
extractor without proper spark protection
when sanding metal.
The tool is supplied with an adapter for connecting a
dustbag or a vacuum extractor.
• Fit the dust extraction adaptor (6) onto the outlet
(3) as shown.
• Attach the dustbag (7) by aligning the open-
ended slots (8) with the notches (9) and fitting the
bag onto the adaptor (6).
• Turn the assembly clockwise to lock it in position.
• Alternatively, connect the tool to a vacuum
extractor using the adaptor (6).
Instructions for use
• Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
• Make sure all materials to be sanded are well
secured.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the workpiece.
Excessive pressure does not improve the
sanding effect, but only results in an increased
load on the machine and causes the abrasive to
tear.
• Avoid overloading.
Do not sand magnesium!
Switching on and off (fig. A)
• Set the sanding speed using the electronic speed
control dial (2).
• To switch the tool on, set the on/off switch to
position I.
• To switch the tool off, set the on/off switch to
position O.

Sanding (fig. A)
• Start with the coarsest grit size.
• As the tool produces small abrasion marks in all
directions, it is not necessary to sand with the
grain.
• Check your work at short intervals.
• Always switch off the tool when work is finished
and before unplugging.
Emptying the dustbag (fig. C)
For efficient dust extraction empty the dust collector
when it is about one third full.
• To empty the dust collector, pull it off together
with the adaptor.
• Remove the dustbag (7) from the adaptor (6) by
turning it counter-clockwise and pulling it off.
• Empty the contents of the bag into a waste
container. If necessary, use a vacuum extractor
to clean the dustbag, applying suction to the
interior surface.
• Re-fit the dust extraction adaptor.
• Re-fit the dustbag.
Consult your dealer for further information on the
appropriate accessories.
Maintenance
Your D
operate over a long period of time with a minimum
of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
Replacing the sanding pad and the speed limiter
disc (fig. D)
Both the sanding pad (4) and the speed limiter disc
(10) are consumable parts.
The sanding pad needs replacement when signs of
wear become evident. The speed limiter disc needs
replacement when the sanding pad speed increases
dramatically when lifting the sander off the
workpiece.
• Unplug the tool.
• Loosen the screws (11) and remove the pad.
• Replace the sanding pad (4) and/or speed limiter
disc (10) and tighten the screws (11), making
sure the speed limiter disc is aligned properly.
