you can also remove the complete sanding plate
and reattach it turned by 120°.
Specialty Sanding Plates
You can replace the supplied sanding plate
6
with a specialty sanding plate, which is available
as an accessory.
The specialty sanding plate is attached in the
same manner as the one supplied.
Attach and remove the respective sanding sheets
in the same manner as when changing original
sanding sheets.
Pad Extender (see figure C)
With the pad extender

you can sand surfaces
that are difficult to access, such as sills on win-
dows, cabinets or doors.
Pad Extender, Narrow (see figure D)
With the narrow pad extender
10
you can sand
narrow openings, slots and passages.
On the top side, a velcro backing
9
can addition-
ally be attached for fastening sanding sheets.
Pad Extender, Narrow Rounded (see figure E)
The narrow rounded pad extender
11
allows you
to sand curved and hollow areas or surfaces that
are curved inward, such as on furniture, rails or
heating radiators.
It is fitted with velcro backing on each side,
which allows for sanding sheets to be fitted on
both sides.
Operation
Starting Operation
f
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the

To
switch off
the machine, push the On/Off
switch
3
towards the rear to “
0

Preselecting the Orbital Stroke Rate
The required stroke rate depends on the material
and the working conditions and can be deter-
mined through practical testing.
With the thumbwheel for preselection of the or-
bital stroke rate
2
, you can preselect the required
orbital stroke rate, even during operation.
Operating Instructions
f
Wait until the machine has come to a stand-
still before placing it down.
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly de-
termined by the selection of the sanding sheet as
well as the preselected orbital stroke rate.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sand-
ing capacity and extend the service life of the ma-
chine.
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 in-
creased wear of the machine and the sanding
sheet.
For precise on-the-spot sanding of edges, cor-
ners and hard to reach areas, it is also possible
to work only with the tip or an edge of the sand-
ing plate.
A sanding sheet that has been used for metal
should not be used for other materials.
Application examples, see figures F
–L.
Use only original Bosch sanding accessories.
