Disposal information for the old machine
For your safety

WARNING!
Before using the power tool, please read the follow:
- these operating instructions,
- the "General safety instructions" on the handling of power tools in the enclosed booklet (leaflet-no.: 315.915),
– the currently valid site rules and the regulations for the prevention of accidents.
This power tool is state of the art and has been constructed in accordance with the acknowledged safety regulations.
Nevertheless, when in use, the power tool may
be a danger to life and limb of the user or a third party, or the power tool or other property may be damaged.
The sander may be used only
-asintended,
- in perfect working order.
Faults which impair safety must be repaired immediately.
Intended use
The sander is intended
– for commercial use in industry and trade,
- for sanding wood, plastic, paint, filler and similar materials using the dry sanding process.
- for use with Velcro sanding sheet and accessories which are indicated in these instructions or which are recommended by the manufacturer.
When metal is being ground, flying sparks occur. Ensure that nobody can be endangered by flying sparks.
Safety instructions for sander

WARNING!
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
- Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the sanding surface may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
■ Attention Risk of fire! Avoid overheating the material to be ground and the grinder. Always empty the dust container before taking breaks from work. Grinding dust in the dust sack, microfilter, paper sack (or in the filter sack or filter of the dust extractor) may self-ignite under unfavourable conditions, e.g. caused by flying sparks when grinding metals. It is particularly hazardous if the grinding dust is mixed with paint or polyurethane residue or other chemical substances and if the material is ground for a long time until hot.
■ Do not use the electric power tool if it has a damaged power cord. Do not touch the damaged power cord and pull out the mains plug if the power cord is damaged during work. Damaged power cords increase the risk of an electric shock.
■ Use the electric power tool for dry sanding only. If water penetrates the electric power tool, there is an increased risk of electric shock.
■ Dust released from materials, such as lead paints, some types of wood, minerals and metal, may be hazardous to the operator or people in the vicinity.
Inhaling or touching these dusts may result in respiratory diseases and/or allergic reactions.
- Ensure the work place is well ventilated!
- If possible, use external dust extraction.
-
It is recommended to wear a respirator mask belonging to filter class P2.
-
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece is held more securely in a clamping device or vice than by hand.
- Keep the workplace clean. Material mixtures are especially dangerous. Light metal dust may burn or explode.
■ Do not work on materials which release hazardous substances (e.g. asbestos).
■ Never grind or cut light metals which have a magnesium content greater than 80%.
Risk of fire!
■ Before using the machine, check that the grinding tools have been installed and secured correctly. Switch on the power tool at no load for 30 seconds! - Interrupt the test run immediately if violent vibrations occur or other damage is established. Check the machine to determine the cause.
■ Before putting down the power tool, switch it off and wait until it comes to a standstill.
■ Do not clamp the power tool in a vice.
■ Always lay the power cord to the rear away from the electric power tool.
Additional safety instructions
■ Use only extension cables permitted for outdoor use.
■ Identify the power tool with stickers only. Do not drill any holes into the housing.
■ The mains voltage and the voltage specifications on the rating plate must correspond.
Noise and vibration
The noise and vibration values have been determined in accordance with EN 62841.
The A evaluated noise level of the power tool is typically:
– Sound pressure level L_pA : 76 dB(A);
– Sound power level L_WA : 84 dB(A);
- Uncertainty: K = 3 dB.
Total vibration value:
- Emission value a_h : 3.47 m/s
– Uncertainty: K = 1.5 m/s ^2

WARNING!
The indicated measurements refer to new power tools. Daily use causes the noise and vibration values to change.

NOTE
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a measurement method standardised in EN62841-1, EN62841-2-4 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The specified vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool.

WARNING!
That the vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared values depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed; and of the need to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

CAUTION!
Wear ear defenders at a sound pressure above 85 dB(A).

Operating instructions
NOTE
When the power tool is switched off, the tool continues running briefly.
WARNING!
Before performing any work on the electric power tool, pull out the mains plug.
Before switching on the power tool
Pull out the mains plug and check that there are no missing or damaged parts.
Attaching/changing the sanding sheet
The sanding plate has Velcro fasteners and is therefore designed exclusively for use with Velcro sanding sheet (see figure C).
■ Pull out the mains plug.
■ Remove used sanding sheet 7.
■ Remove any coarse debris from the sanding plate 6.
■ Attach new sanding sheet. Align the holes in the sanding sheet with the holes in the sanding plate 6.
■ Attach the sanding sheet by gently pressing it against the Velcro fasteners on the sanding plate 6.
Changing the sanding plate
If the sanding plate 6 has worn out, it can be replaced (see figure D).
■ Pull out the mains plug.
■ Undo the eight screws.
■ Remove the sanding plate 6 by pulling it downwards.
■ Attach a new sanding plate.
■ Tighten the eight screws back.
Setting the speed
There are four speed levels that can be changed using the speed setting buttons 3. The LED lights above the numbers indicate the current speed level (see figure E).
The speed level can be set when the tool is connected to the power supply or when the tool is already in operation. After you turn the tool off, the memory function will remember and revert to the last active speed level the next time the tool is turned on.
Switching on and off
Switch power tool on or off by pressing on/off switch 2 (see figure F).
CAUTION!
Following a power failure, the switched-on power tool will not start running again.
Operating instructions
WARNING!
Hold the electric power tool by the insulated grip surfaces only!
CAUTION!
When the power tool is switched off, the grinding tool continues running briefly.
- Switch on the sander and place the whole sanding sheet on the surface to be processed.
- Applying moderate pressure, move the sander evenly over the workpiece.
- The sanding result is determined primarily by the selection of the correct sanding sheet, the selected number of oscillations and the contact pressure.
– Replace sanding sheets in good time. - An excessive increase in the contact pressure will not increase the grinding performance, but will increase the wear on the electric power tool and the sanding tool.
Maintenance and care
WARNING!
Before performing any work on the electric power tool, pull out the mains plug.
Cleaning
■ Clean the power tool and grille in front of the vent slots regularly. Frequency of cleaning is dependent on the material and duration of use.
■ Regularly blow out the housing interior and motor with dry compressed air.
Spare parts and accessories
For other accessories, in particular tools and polishing aids, see the manufacturer's catalogues.
if the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
