Tool settings
Always remove the power plug
from the socket before carrying out any work
on the power tool.
Dust extraction
Always connect the machine to a dust
extractor when performing work that
generates dust.
You can connect a Festool extractor with an
extractor hose diameter of 27 mm to the dust
extraction port (4.2).
The extraction adapter (4.3) can be removed
if necessary. To do this, press the locking but-
ton (4.1), draw the extraction adapter back-
wards and pull off. To reattach the extraction
adapter, insert it as shown in Fig. 4 and slide
it towards the sanding pad until the locking
button (4.1) latches into place.
Edge protector
The edge protector (5.1) prevents the sand-
ing pad from touching the edge perpendicu-
lar to a surface (e.g. when sanding along a
wall), thereby preventing the machine from
rebounding.
Assembly: Slide the edge protector onto the
machine until it latches into place.
Sanding motion
You can use the switch (6.1) to set two dif-
ferent sanding motions.
The change from eccentric motion
( ne sanding) to Rotex rotary motion (coarse
sanding) can only be made when the sanding
pad is stationary, as the switch is locked in
place during operation for reasons of safety.
Rotex rotary motion (coarse sanding,
polishing)
The Rotex rotary motion is a combina-
tion of rotary and eccentric motions.
This motion is recommended for sand-
ing with aggressive material removal
(coarse sanding) and polishing.
Slide the switch (6.1) into the right position.
