Reduce dust exposure:
Particles generated when working with this
machine may contain substances that can
cause cancer, allergic reactions, respiratory
diseases, birth defects or other propagation defects. Some
of these substances include: Lead (in paint containing
lead), mineral dust (from bricks, concrete etc.), additives
used for wood treatment (chromate, wood preservatives),
some wood types (such as oak or beech dust), metals,
asbestos. The risk depends on for how long the user or
nearby persons are exposed to the substance. This dust
must not be allowed to enter your body. Do the following
to reduce exposure to these substances: Ensure good ven-
tilation of the workplace and wear appropriate protective
equipment, such as respirators able to filter microscopical-
ly small particles. Observe the relevant guidelines for your
material, staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work, thus less par-
ticles enter the environment in an uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust
- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing Do not
blow, beat or brush
5. Commissioning
Before plugging in, check to see that the rated
mains voltage and mains frequency, as stated
on the rating label, match with your power supply.
Always install an RCD with a max. trip current
of 30 mA upstream.
6. Installing the tools
Prior to any conversion work: Pull the mains
plug from the socket. The machine must be
switched off and the spindle at a standstill.
6.1 Installing support plate and sanding
sheet/tool
Only use the adjusting nut supplied with the
support plate. Place the support plate on
the spindle. (No adjusting nut for Eisenblätter FIX
System needed).
FIX System:
- Lock the spindle, screw the support plate onto the spindle
- Place the tool on the support plate in consideration of
the centering pin
- Release by hand (spindle lock)
Backing pad with centering clamping nut:
- Place the backing pad on the spindle
- Screw the abrasive with the attached clamping nut of the
support plate
- Lock the spindle, tighten the abrasive with backing pad
clockwise by hand
- Release by hand or if necessary with a two-hole key
Tools with 22,23 mm mount:
- Lock the spindle
- Make sure that the flange is directly placed on the
spindle
- Place the tool on the flange through the spindle
- Tighten the clamping nut
- Lock the spindle, release it by hand
Tools with M14 mount:
- Lock the spindle
- Make sure that the flange is directly placed on the
spindle
- Screw on the tool
- Lock the spindle, release it by hand
