The grinding disks and the tool-holding fi xture on
the appliance are equipped with a positive holder
[6-1]
.
Make sure the grinding disk is
correctly positioned before screwing it tight.
Working with the tool
Never overload the tool by using
too much pressure! The best sanding results are
achieved when applying moderate pressure.
The ETS 150/3 EQ gives the best surface quality
and low abrasion. The ETS 150/5 EQ provides high
abrasion with good surface quality. The sanding
performance and quality depend mainly on the
choice of the right sanding material. Festool offers
the appropriate sanding material for all applications
(see Festool catalogue or on the Internet under
www.festoolusa.com
).
For safe guidance, hold the machine with both
hands on the motor housing
[7-2]
and on the gear
head
[7-1]
.
