Installation
• Fold the front and back part together (Fig. 2). And
then tighten the screw nut. (Fig. 3).
• The Iongest length installation Insert the additional
handle to the end of the machine. And then turn the
screw nut on the end of the machine for tightening.

Sandpaper
Selection
1. The grain size of the sandpaper is specified on its
rear side. The smaller the specified number, the
coarser the graining.
2. Use sandpaper with coarse grain for rough grind-
ing, and sandpaper with fine grain for finishing.
We recommend sandpapers with aluminium ox-
ide, silicon carbide or other synthetic abrasives.
3. lf you can chose between sandpapers with differ -
ent graining, you should start with coarsegraining
sandpaper and complete the grinding process
with the finest possible graining. Thus you will get
good and smooth grinding results.
How to apply and replace sandpaper
Apply the sandpaper to the grinding plate using the
Velcro strip mechanism.
1. Align the sandpaper with the grinding plate and
press it on evenly.
2. PuII the sandpaper off the grinding plate and re -
place it with a new one I another one (Fig. 5).
Dust extraction
WARNING! Harmfull noxious gases may be gener-
ated when e.g. lead-containing paint is processed.
These gases entail a risk for the operator and the
persons in the vicinity!
Therefore only use the power tool in combination
with a dust extraction unit, and protect yourself and
other persons in the working area with additional
suitable personal protective equipment!
When working with this power tool, a Iot of dust is
c.) Never position your body in the area in which
the machine moves in the event of a kickback.
A kickback accelerates the machine in the direc-
tion of rotation opposed to the disc at the jamming
point.
d.) Take extra care when working in corners, on
sharp edges, etc. Avoid kickbacks and prevent
the tool from seizing. Corners, sharp edges or a
jump back tend to cause the rotating tool to catch,
thus leading to a loss of control or a kickback.
Special safety instructions for fine sanding
a.) Do not use excessively large sanding discs
when fine sanding. Observe the specifica -
tions of the manufacturer when selecting
abrasive discs. A sanding disc that is too large
and protrudes over the sanding pad represents a
cutting injury hazard and can cause catching, disc
tears or kickbacks.
Additional warning notes
a.) Hold the machine firmly with both hands and
assume a stable stance when performing
work. Hold the machine with both hands to guide
more securely.
b.) If potentially explosive or self-igniting dust is
produced during sanding, the processing in -
structions of the material manufacturer must
be observed under all circumstances.
c.) Harmful/toxic dusts can be produced during
your work (e.g. lead-containing paint, some
types of wood and metal). Contact with these
dusts, especially inhaling them, can represent a
hazard for operating personnel or persons in the
vicinity. Comply with the safety regulations that
apply in your country. Connect the electric power
tool to a suitable extraction system. To protect
your health, wear a P2 protective mask.
d.) Never use machines with a damaged cable.
Do not touch damaged cables and pull the
plug from the mains power supply if the cable
becomes damaged during work. Damaged ca-
bles increase the risk of electric shock.
Residual risks
Even if you use this power tool in compliance
with the regulations, there are still remaining
risks. The following risks may occur due to the
type and design of the power tool:
• Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask
is used.
• Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection
is used.
• Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if
the equipment is used over a prolonged period or
is not properly guided and maintained.
