The vibration level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may signicantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signicantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns

ASSEMBLY Battery Charging ■ Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of your power tool. Note: The battery supplied is partially charged. To ensure full capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the battery charger before using your power tool for the rst time. The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure does not damage the battery. The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates. ■ Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the machine has been automatically switched off. The battery can be damaged. Observe the notes for disposal. Removing the battery (see gure A) To remove the battery 4, press the battery unlocking button 8 and pull the battery out of the power tool toward the rear.

Replacing the Sanding Sheet (see gure B-C) To remove the sanding sheet 10, lift it from the side and pull it off of the sanding plate 6. When attaching a new sanding sheet, remove any dust or debris from the sanding plate 6, e. g., with a brush. The surface of the sanding plate 6 is fitted with Velcro backing for quick and easy fastening of sanding sheets with Velcro adhesion. Press the sanding sheet 10 rmly against the bottom side of the sanding plate 6. To ensure optimum dust extraction, pay attention that the punched holes in the sanding sheet match with the holes in the sanding plate. The dust box (alignment aid) 11 can be used for alignment of the sanding sheet 10 on the sanding plate 6. Place the sanding sheet with the Velcro facing upward on the alignment aid. Press the cams of the alignment aid into two holes of the sanding plate and roll off the sanding sheet from the alignment aid. Press the sanding sheet rmly against the sanding plate. Note: A correctly positioned sanding sheet is required to ensure low vibration of the power tool during operation. Selection of the Sanding Plate Depending on the application, the machine can be equipped with sanding plates of different hardness: – Sanding plate, medium (black): Suitable for all sanding work; universally usable. – Sanding plate, soft (grey, accessory): Suitable for intermediate and fine sanding, incl. on convex surfaces. Replacing the Sanding Plate (see gures D–E) Note: Replace a damaged sanding plate 6 immediately. Pull off the sanding sheet or the polishing accessory. Unscrew the four screws 12 completely and remove the sanding plate 6. Clean the upper side of the new sanding plate 6. Apply a thin coat of synthetic grease to the outer ring hatched grey in the gure. Attach the new sanding plate 6 and tighten the four screws again. Note: A damaged sanding-plate base 13 may be changed only by an authorised after-sales service agent for power tools. Dust/Chip Extraction ■ Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or bystanders. Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood- treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists. – As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable for the material. – Provide for good ventilation of the working place. – It is recommended to wear a P2 lter-class respirator. Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the materials to be worked. ■ Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can easily ignite. Integrated Dust Extraction with Dust Box(see gures F-G) To empty the dust box assembly 5, pull dust box 11 off the power tool by squeezing both sides of dust box 11. Empty the dust box 11and clean the dust box 11 with a Selecting the Sanding Sheet Select a sanding sheet with the appropriate grain as required for the desired surface removal rate. Greenworks sanding sheets are suitable for paint, wood and metal.

soft brush. Note: To ensure optimum dust extraction, empty the dust box assembly 5 in good time and clean the dust box 11 at regular intervals. When working vertical surfaces, hold the power tool in such a manner that the dust box assembly 5 faces downward. External Dust Extraction (see gure H-J) Pull the dust box assembly 5 off toward the bottom with a twisting motion. Mount a vacuum hose 15 onto the extraction outlet 14. Connect the vacuum hose 15 with a vacuum cleaner. An overview for the connection of various vacuum cleaners can be found at the end of these instructions. The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being worked. When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner. When working vertical surfaces, hold the power tool in such a manner that the vacuum hose faces downward. Auxiliary Handle (see gure K) The auxiliary handle 7 enables convenient handling and optimal distribution of power, especially at high removal rates. For sanding close to edges, the auxiliary handle can be removed. Unscrew wing nut 17 and pull screw 16 out of the housing. Now, pull off the auxiliary handle 7 toward the front. To remount the auxiliary handle 7, slide it from the front onto the housing in such a manner that the studs of the handle engage into the recesses of the housing. Firmly tighten the auxiliary handle with the screw 16 and the wing nut

Setting the Auxiliary Handle (see gure L) The auxiliary handle can be set to three positions. To change the position, loosen the wing nut 17 (approx. 2 – 3 turns). Set the auxiliary handle and retighten the wing nut. STARTING OPERATION Inserting the battery Slide the charged battery 4 into the power tool from behind until the battery is securely locked. Switching On and Off To start the machine, turn on the On/Off switch 2 forward so that the “1” is indicated on the switch. To switch off the machine, turn off the On/Off switch 2 toward the rear so that the “0” is indicated on the switch. To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it. Preselecting the Orbital Stroke Rate With the thumbwheel for preselection of the orbital stroke rate 1, you can preselect the required orbital stroke rate, even during operation. 1 – 2 Low stroke rate 3 – 4 Medium stroke rate 5 – 6 High stroke rate The required stroke rate depends on the material and the working conditions and can be determined through practical testing. After longer periods of working at low stroke rate, allow the machine to cool down by running it for approx. 3 minutes at maximum stroke rate with no load. Restarting Protection The restarting protection feature prevents uncontrolled restarting of the machine after an interruption in the power supply. To restart the operation, switch the On/Off switch 2 to the Off position and start the machine again. WORKING ADVICE ■ Before any work on the power tool, remove the battery. ■ Wait until the machine has come to a standstill before placing it down. Sanding Surfaces Switch the machine on, place it with the complete sanding surface on the surface to be worked and move the machine with moderate pressure over the workpiece. The removal capacity and the sanding pattern are mainly determined by the selection of the sanding sheet, the preselected orbital stroke rate and the applied pressure. Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sanding capacity and extend the service life of the machine. Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pressure; this increases the working life of the sanding sheets. Intensifiying the sanding pressure does not lead to an increase of the sanding capacity, but to increased wear of the machine and the sanding sheet. A sanding sheet that has been used for metal should not be used for other materials. Use only original sanding accessories. Rough Sanding Attach a sanding sheet with coarse grain.EN DE ES IT FR PT NL RU FI SV NO DA PL CS SK SL HR HU RO BG EL AR TR HE LT LV ET English (Original Instructions)

Apply only light pressure to the machine so that it runs at a higher stroke rate and high material removal is achieved. Fine Sanding Attach a sanding sheet with fine grain. By lightly varying the application pressure or changing the orbital stroke rate, the sanding plate stroke rate can be reduced whereby the orbital action is maintained. With moderate pressure, move the machine in a circular pattern or alternately in lengthwise and crosswise directions over the workpiece. Do not tilt the machine to avoid sanding through the workpiece (e. g. when sanding veneer). After finishing the working procedure, switch the power tool off. Polishing For the polishing of weathered paint or buffing out scratches (e.g., acrylic glass), the machine can be equipped with appropriate polishing accessories such as lamb’s wool bonnet, polishing felt or sponge (accessories). Select a low orbital stroke rate (level 1 – 4) when polishing in order to avoid heating up the surface excessively. Apply the polish onto a somewhat smaller surface than you intend to polish. Work the polishing agent in with a suitable polishing tool applying it crosswise or with circular motion and moderate pressure. Do not allow the polishing agent to dry out on the surface, otherwise the surface can become damaged. Do not subject the surface to be polished to direct sunlight. Clean the polishing accessories regularly to ensure good polishing results. Wash out polishing accessories with a mild detergent and warm water; do not use paint thinner.
