4.1

Speed adjustment

You can regulate the speed steplessly between

4,000 and 8,000 rpm using the adjusting wheel

(2.2).

This enables you to optimise the cutting speed

to suit the material.

4.2

Suction unit

Sanding dust is extracted through the

extraction channels in the sanding pad

directly to the material removal point.

To guarantee optimized dust extraction,

we recommend using Festool extractors

with automatic switch-on/switch-off

device for compressed-air machines.

In order to prevent damage to the

pneumatic motor, dust extraction must

not be carried out on the pneumatic tool

when it is at standstill.

4.3

Sanding pads

The sanding pads are different in

weight, depending on their diameter.

Fitting sanding pads of incorrect size

causes excessive vibration of the

machine.

Only use sanding pads with an undamaged burr

layer.

The sanding pads are available in three degrees

of hardness to suit the type of application:

-

Hard:

 high edge strength, for removing

coarse material from surfaces and for sanding

edges.

-

Soft:

 universal for coarse and fine sanding,

with elastic structure for even and curved

surfaces.

-

Super soft:

 high elasticity, for smooth fine

sanding of moulded parts, curves, radii. 

Do

not use on edges.

Assembly - see Fig. 4. Make sure the position

of the positive-fit supports of the sanding pads

(4.1) and the machine (4.2) is congruent.

4.4

Abrasive

Self-adhesive abrasives, such as Stickfix

sandpaper, and sanding cloths can be affixed

to the Stickfix sanding pads.

The abrasives are simply pressed onto the

sanding pads and removed after use.

The abrasives must be affixed

concentrically and the holes aligned

with those on the sanding pad.

Maintenance and care

The machine should always be

disconnected from the compressed air

supply before any work is carried out

on the machine.

Any maintenance or repair work requiring the

motor housing to be opened may only be

carried out by an authorised service workshop.

5.1

Vanes

We recommend that the vanes on the motor

be replaced after approx. 500 operating hours.

5.2

Sanding pad brake

The collar (5.1) makes contact with the sanding

pad, thus preventing the sanding pad from

vibrating uncontrolledly.

This collar wears out over time and must be

replaced should brake fading occur.

The sanding pad must be removed for this.

You can then remove the collar from the snap-

on fastener (5.2) and replace it with a new one.

5.3

Lubrication

If the machine is not used for longer periods,

e.g. for a weekend, introduce 1 or 2 drops of

lubricating oil into the compressed-air supply

(5.3) on the machine prior to use.

5.4

Replacing the silencer

The silencer on the IAS 2 connecting piece must

be replaced at regular intervals to maintain the

power of the pneumatic tool.

5.5

Cleaning the extraction channels

We recommend that the extraction channels in

the machine (5.4) be cleaned using a small

pipe-cleaner brush or a cloth once a week

(especially when sanding resin filler).
