Important safety information

WARNING!

Before using the power tool, please read the following and act accordingly:

– these operating instructions,
- the "General safety instructions" on the handling of power tools in the enclosed booklet (leaflet-no.: 315915),
- 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 pose a danger to life and limb of the user or a third party, or the power tool or other property may be damaged.

The power tool may be operated only

  • for its intended use
  • in perfect working order.

Faults which impair safety must be repaired immediately.

Intended use

- for use with Velcro sanding sheet and accessories which are indicated in these instructions or which are recommended by the manufacturer.

Safety instructions for orbital 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.

■ 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 bag, microfilter, paper bag (or in the filter bag 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.

■ 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.

Noise and vibration

ORE 5-150 18-EC

The A-weighted noise level of the power tool is typically:

– Sound pressure level L_PA : 84 dB(A)
- Sound power level L_WA : 92 dB(A)
- Uncertainty: K PA & K WA = 3 dB

Total vibration value:

  • Emission value a_h : 3.8 dB(A)
  • Uncertainty: K = 1.5 m/s

Flex ORE 5-150 18-EC - Noise and vibration - 1

CAUTION!

The specified measured values apply to new power tools. Daily use causes the noise and vibration values to change.

Flex ORE 5-150 18-EC - CAUTION! - 1

NOTE

The vibration emission level stated in these instructions has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It can also 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 poor maintenance, the vibration emission level may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. To make an accurate estimation of the vibration exposure level, it is also necessary to take into account the times when the tool is switched off or running but not actually in use. This may significantly decrease the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: Maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

Flex ORE 5-150 18-EC - NOTE - 1

CAUTION!

Wear ear defenders at a sound pressure over 85 dB(A).

CAUTION!

When the device is not in use, protect the battery contacts. Loose metal parts may short circuit the contacts; explosion and fire hazard!

Attaching/changing the sanding sheet (see figure C)

The sanding plate (4) has Velcro fasteners and is therefore designed exclusively for use with Velcro sanding sheet.

■ Remove the battery.
■ Remove used sanding sheet.
■ Remove any coarse debris from the sanding plate (4).
■ Attach new sanding sheet. Align the holes in the sanding sheet with the holes in the sanding plate (4).
■ Attach the sanding sheet by gently pressing it against the Velcro fasteners on the sanding plate (4).

Changing the sanding plate (see figure D1-D2)

If the sanding plate (4) has worn out, it can be replaced.

■ Remove the battery.
■ Undo the screw with washer.

Operating instructions

Flex ORE 5-150 18-EC - Operating instructions - 1

WARNING!

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.
