Wear hearing protection! Description of the machine The PROXXON BS/A belt sander is a light, compact and handy device ideal for model, tool and mould construction but which can also be used for the repair of motor vehicles. Application examples are

• grinding in of grooves

• correcting of especially inaccessible areas

• re-sanding of especially complexly formed shapes

• grinding out of small openings and break- throughs, regardless of the materials, and also high-strength steels

• straightening, smooth sanding and high-shine polishing of surfaces: the pulled grinding does not leave annoying grinding marks

• grinding of saw blades, chisels and even cutting tools

• precision polishing of surfaces

• removal of paints and varnishes

• rounding off of edges

• deburring and chamfering of precision parts, etc. The high-grade corundum sanding belts enable machining of metal, plastic and wood. An extremely robust gearbox transfers the moti- ve force to the driving roller for the sanding belt at the gear head. This runs on the grinding head where it is diver- ted by a tightening roller at the front end. The grinding head can be swivelled to enable work even at inaccessible areas. GB- 10 - 1 Key (Fig. 1)

• Do not disassemble the battery or break the housing! Electrolytes could leak out and cause injuries! If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them with clean water and seek medical attention immediately!

• Protect battery from overheating! Defects could be the result.

• Never short-circuit the battery! Strong currents could overheat the battery. Burns or a defect could be the possible result. When storing the batteries, ensure that the electric contacts cannot establish a conductive connection.

• Do not put the battery in open fi re!- 11 - The battery can explode.

• Never subject the battery to liquids! Caution: Please note that your Proxxon power tool may only be operated with the appropriate Proxxon battery and that the charger is to be used exclu- sively for the charging of these batteries. Furthermore, no other charger may be used to charge the Proxxon battery: The respective Proxxon components are optimally coordinated. Please note: The device, battery and charge are also separately available at retailers! When delivered, the battery is partially char- ged and must be charged completely before commissioning the device. To do so, proceed as follows:

1. Insert the plug of the charger.

2. Insert battery 1 in the charger 2 as shown

3. The yellow light-emitting diode 3 signals the

charging process. When completed, the green light-emitting diode 4 lights up.

4. Remove the completely charged battery

5. Insert battery 1 as shown in Fig. 3 in the

housing opening of the device until it engages. To protect the battery from harmful total dischar- ge while in operation, the charge status is per- manently monitored electronically and the de- vice will switch off before it reaches the critical discharge condition. The battery will now need to be recharged. Do not attempt to put the device back into operation with a discharged battery!

6. To charge, press the release buttons 2, pull

out the battery to the rear and carry out steps 1-5. The charging process can be interrupted at any time and continued without damage to the battery. Caution: Drastically reduced operating times after the charging process indicates that the battery needs to be replaced! If after inserting the battery into its designa- ted opening the light-emitting diode fl ashes instead of glowing yellow continuously, the cause may be a too high temperature, a de- fect, or the total discharge of the battery.

• If the battery is too hot, the charging process will start automatically after it cools down.

• If, on the other hand, the battery has a nor mal temperature but is totally discharged, the charger will check if it still draws power or it if is already defective.

• If the battery can be recovered, the yellow light-emitting diode will glow continuously after some time, signalling the successful charging process.

• If the yellow light-emitting diode fl ashes, the battery is defective and needs to be disposed of; see also "Note on disposal within the EU" later on in these instructions. General handling of the device: Caution! Ensure the work piece is fi xed securely! Loose work pieces should be clamped in a suitable fi xture. This prevents the work pieces from fl ying about Danger! Please wear a dust mask as necessary! Some types of wood or even varnish residues (or similar) can generate harmful dusts while working. If you are unsure of the harmless- ness of your material to be ground, please wear a dust protection mask! Ensure the work place is well ventilated in any case and work with a vacuum cleaner for dust extraction as necessary! Caution: The battery must be removed from the device be- fore assembly, adjustment (except the belt running adjustment), maintenance measures or repair!- 12 - Connect the vacuum cleaner (Fig. 4) We recommend to always work with the dust extraction. Our "Compact Workshop Vacuum Cleaner CW-matic" with automatic cut-off is ideal for this use.

1. Put connection adapter 1 on the connecting

2. Put on the rubber connecting piece 2 and

insert the vacuum cleaner hose. The fl exible rubber material makes it possible to use different diameters. Changing the grinding belt (Fig. 5)

1. Press the tightening roller 1 axially and remove

grinding belt from driving roller 2.

2. Place the new grinding belt fi rst over the

tightening roller 1. Then press the tightening roller towards the back and place the belt over the driving roller 2. Adjusting the grinding roller (Fig. 6) The grinding belt must run centrally on the tigh- tening roller. If not, it needs to be readjusted. Caution, risk of injury! The device must run with this setting. Please proceed with the greatest possible caution for the belt running adjustment! The running belt represents a potential hazard and can cause injuries if the device is handled carelessly!

1. Switch on the device by turning the button 1

and setting the small belt speed.

2. Turn the adjusting screw 2 to the left or right

until the belt runs centrally on the tightening roller 1. Adjusting the grinding head (Fig. 7)

1. Press in locking button 1 whilst adjusting

the grinding head 2 to the desired angle.

2. Release the locking button. The grinding

head engages. Working with the device (Fig. 8)

1. Activate the device with the rotational speed

regulating knob (1, Fig. 1) and set the right speed for the work.

2. The grinding surface 2 is particularly suited

for machining fl at surfaces.

3. Grinding surface 1 is best used to grind curves.

4. Face side 3 is suited for work on tight openings

and recesses. Note: Not excessive contact pressure is what achie- ves a high grinding performance but rather the correct and uniform speed. 5 Maintenance, cleaning and care Caution: Remove the battery from device before any assembly, adjustment, maintenance measure or repair! Note: Every device is dirtied by dust when working with wood. Cleaning is therefore essential. To ensure a long service life, however, the machi- ne should be cleaned with a soft cloth or brush after each use. Mild soap or other suitable cleaning agent may be used in this context. Solvents or cleaning agents containing alcohol (e.g. petrol, cleaning alcohols etc.) should be avoided, since these can attack plastic casings. Always keep the apertures required for cooling the motor free of dust and dirt. Service note Please note: The mains power input for the charger may only be replaced by our Proxxon Service Department or a qualifi ed specialist! 6 Accessories For more detailed information on accessories, please request our device catalogue from the address specifi ed on the last page in the war- ranty information.- 13 - Please note in general: Proxxon bits and cutters have been designed to work with our machines, which makes them optimal for their use.
