Check that sparks and debris can not cause any hazard.
Check the abrasive product on damages after it dropped.
Accessories
In order to (dis)assemble the sanding belt: Push the front wheel backwards in the locking device, change the belt, unlock the locking
device.

wheel. Do this while the tool is running.
The rpm is adjustable with the adjustment screw at the bottom side of the handgrip on place of the lever.
The sanding arm can be adjusted in any position. Fix the position with the hexagon screw.
Check the rotation direction of the sanding belt when assembling. A wrongly assembled belt can break on the joint of the belt.
Select the best available inserted/mounted accessories/consumables for the lowest possible noise level and vibration. Replace them in
case of an increased noise level and/or vibration.
Make sure that the inserted/mounted abrasive is inserted/mounted correct and clamped.
After inserting/mounting an abrasive, let the tool run at no load in a safe direction for one minute, stop immediate at not normal
vibrations/noise and correct this or replace the abrasive.
