[. . . ] 1 Additional handle The removable additional handle (3) can be screwed onto the machine with the integrated knurled screw (4). If required, insert a Phillips screwdriver in the hole at the end of the additional handle to release or tighten the knurled screw (4). 2 Installation of sanding disc Simple attachment and removal thanks to the velcro-type fastening. Simply press on the sanding disc such that the holes in the sanding disc (1) are aligned with the support plate (2). [. . . ] Ensure that the position of the marking on the braking ring is correct. - Mount support plate (2) and rotate until it engages on carrier disc. You can choose between two oscillating frequency settings: • Oscillating circuit high setting (6. 2 mm): coarse sanding with high material removal rate • Oscillating circuit low setting (2. - Rotate support plate (2) in a counter-clockwise direction until you can hear it engage. - Continue turning the support plate half a revolution to the next snap-in point. 2 On/Off switch, continuous activation To start the machine, press the trigger switch (8). For continuous operation the trigger switch can be locked using the lock button (7). 3 Setting oscillating frequency When the TurboBoost switch (6) is switched off, the oscillating speed can be set at the setting wheel (5). 3-4 Coarse and fine sanding, polishing, wood 5 The best way to determine the ideal setting is through a practical trial. 4 TurboBoost switch Actuate the TurboBoost switch (6) during operation to switch on additional power reserves for maximum material removal rate. 5 Dust extraction To optimise the dust extraction performance, fit the sanding disc such that the holes on the sanding disc (1) are aligned to the support plate (2). Own extraction system: Fit the dust collection box (12) onto the exhaust nozzle until it engages. To remove, press the button (11) and pull off the dust collection box (12) to the rear. To optimise the extraction performance, empty the dust collection box (12) in good time and clean the filter (14). Tips and Tricks Do not press the device too firmly against the surface being sanded. To optimise the extraction performance, empty the dust collection box (12) in good time and clean the fluted filter (14). English Use a suitable sanding disc to achieve the best possible work results: Removal of old paint layers = P 40 Pre-sanding of wood = P 60, P 80 Finishing of wood = P 100, P 120 Sanding of veneers, sealing primer, filler, paint = P 180, P 240, P 320, P 400 8 ENGLISH en 10. [. . . ] D = Diameter of support plate = Nominal power input P1 = Power output P2 = Idle speed (setting wheel) n0 n0, TB = Idle speed (TurboBoost switch) n1, TB = Speed at rated load (TurboBoost switch) = Oscillating frequency at idle speed s0 (setting wheel) s0, TB = Oscillating frequency at idle speed (TurboBoost switch) s1, TB = Oscillating frequency at rated load (TurboBoost switch) S = Oscillating circuit diameter m = Weight without mains cable The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. [. . . ]
