Working with the machine
Service and maintenance
We recommend that the vanes on the motor be re-
placed after approx. 500 operating hours.
The rubber sleeve [5-1] brushes off the sanding
pad and prevents uncontrolled turning of the sand-
ing pad. This must be replaced if the braking effect
decreases.
Fix
Press the self-adhesive sanding accessory onto
the sanding pad [4-1].
For work that generates dust, wear a dust
mask.
