Festool ETS 153 EQ Sander User Manual


 
6
The sanding base is braked by a collar (6.2) in
order to prevent any uncontrolled excessive speed
of the sanding base. Because the collar wears
down in the course of time, it has to be replaced
by a new one (453388) as soon as there is any
reduction in the braking effect.
Accessories, tools
For safety reasons, only use original
Festool accessories and tools!
The accessory and tool order number can be found

Systainer
Many Festool products are shipped in a unique
system container, called "Systainer". This provides
protection and storage for the tool and acces-
sories. The Systainers are stackable and can be
interlocked together. They also can be interlocked
atop Festool CT dust extractors.
