plug for connection to the mains is located at the switch box of the
motor. The motor switch with the switch positions START / WORK-
ING and TEST is located at the switch box. On the left under the

a steering wheel at the back and two lateral wheels. Two handles
are attached to the guide tube, where the drum lowering lever is
also located and the cables and dust bag are attached.
The HUMMEL belt sanding machine is intended for dry use only.
Never attempt to use the HUMMEL for any wet process (risk of
fatal accidents)!
