9. OPERATING THE OSCILLATING MULTI-TOOL
9.1 ON/OFF SWITCH – FIG.10
To switch the power tool ON, slide switch
forwards.
To switch the power tool OFF, slide switch
backwards.
9.2 USING THE VARIABLE SPEED
CONTROL – FIG.11
Select oscillation frequency (speed) whilst the
motor is running. The variable speed control
can be used to set the optimum oscillating
frequency according to the accessories being
used and their respective application.
High oscillation frequency: Sanding, sawing,
rasping and polishing stone and metal.
Low oscillation frequency: Polishing varnishes.
9.3 SECURING THE WORKPIECE
Warning! Before working with your tool make
sure that no power cords will be damaged.
9.4 SANDING
Typical application: Wood, metal; small areas,
especially corners, edges and places difficult to
access. Select high oscillation frequency.
Sand with a constant movement and light
pressure. Heavy pressure does not increase the
removal – the sanding sheet merely wears faster.
9.5 SAWING WITH THE OFFSET SAW
BLADE
Typical application: Wood, plastics, sheet metal.
Select high oscillation frequency.
The saw blade lasts longer if the wear is distributed
evenly. To ensure an even distribution, loosen the
saw blade, rotate it and re-tighten firmly.
9.6 SCRAPING
Typical application: Scraping off old varnish or
adhesives, removing glued carpeting, e.g. on stairs
or other small to medium-sized surfaces.
Select medium/high oscillation frequency.
