Switching the machine on and off
To switch on
While holding the left hand on the column and the right hand on the main handle, press
the rocker to switch to the right with the thumb of the right hand. Anticipate and be ready
for the start up torque when the machine first starts (8).
To switch off
Press the rocker switch to the left; after the machine has been switched off, the sanding
disc will rotate for a time. Take care that parts of your body do not come into contact
with the disc and do not set the machine down while it is still rotating (7).
Adjusting the rotation speed
The speed of the machine is variable to suit different tasks. It can be adjusted from
650/min up to 1600/min by using the thumb wheel. Using the right thumb, turn in the
downward clockwise direction to increase the speed and in the counterclockwise
direction to decrease the speed (9).
Generally, you should use the higher speed for fast stock removal and the lower speed
for more precise control.
HOW TO USE THE TOOL
Effective control of this powerful tool requires two-handed operation for a maximum
safety and control.
The proper position is to keep one hand on the main handle and the other hand on the
sponge grip on the column. It is vitally important to keep stable footing at all times,
especially when standing on scaffolding or stilts.
Mounting the bail handle
Loosen the 2 thumbscrews and remove the clamp cap.
Place the handle in the desired position on the column.
Clamp the handle in place by replacing the clamp cap
and tightening the 2 thumbscrews.
