Maintenance and care
Always disconnect the tool from
the compressed air supply before doing any
work on the tool.
Any maintenance or repair work requiring the
motor housing to be opened may only be carried
out by an authorized service workshop.
Vanes
We recommend that the vanes on the motor
be replaced after approx. 500 operating hours.
Sanding pad brake
The collar (5.1) makes contact with the sanding
pad, thus preventing uncontrolled vibration of
the sanding pad. 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.
Lubrication
If the tool has not been used for an extended
period, such as a weekend, introduce 1 or 2
drops of lubricating oil into the compressed-air
supply (5.3) on the tool prior to use.
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.
Cleaning the extraction channels
We recommend that the extraction channels in
the tool (5.4) be cleaned once a week using a
small pipe-cleaner brush or a cloth (especially
when sanding resin filler).
Accessories, tools
For safety reasons, only use
original Festool accessories and tools!
Accessory and tool order numbers can be found
in your Festool catalog.
