6.1 Duo oscillating circuit setting (only with
SXE 450 TurboTec)
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 (2.8 mm): fine
sanding, polishing
Changing oscillating circuit:
- Disconnect the mains plug!
- Press in the locking button (9) and hold in place.
- Rotate support plate (2) in a counter-clockwise
direction until you can hear it engage.
- Continue holding in the button.
- Continue turning the support plate half a
revolution to the next snap-in point.
- Release the locking button.
6.2 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). To stop the
machine, press the trigger switch (8) again.
6.3 Setting oscillating frequency
When the TurboBoost switch (6) is switched off,
the oscillating speed can be set at the setting
wheel (5). This is also possible during operation.
Recommended oscillating frequency settings:
Plastic materials. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1-2
Metal, Plexiglas
®
, old coats of paint. . . . . 3-4
Coarse and fine sanding, polishing, wood5
The best way to determine the ideal setting is
through a practical trial.
6.4 TurboBoost switch
Actuate the TurboBoost switch (6) during operation
to switch on additional power reserves for maximum
material removal rate.
6.5 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).
External extraction system:
Connect a suitable extraction device.
Empty dust collection box (12).
- Open cleaning flap (13).
- Empty dust collection box (12).
- Remove fluted filter (14) and knock off dust stuck
to filter or remove with brush.
- When inserting, ensure that the fluted filter (14) is
inserted in the lateral guides.
The clean the machine regularly, frequently
and thoroughly. Vacuum clean the ventilation
slots on the motor or blow compressed air through
the ventilation slots. Hold the machine firmly at the
same time.
Replacing a worn support plate
Note:
If abrasive material (e.g. filled or painted
surfaces, etc.) is being sanded, the support plate
inevitably wears faster.
-Use the
hexagon spanner
(10) to unscrew the
fixing screw (15) on the support plate.
- Remove support plate (2).
- For replacement support plates, refer to the
Accessories chapter.
- Mount support plate (2) and rotate until it engages
on carrier disc.
- Insert locking screw (15) again and tighten.
Replacing support plate brake / braking ring
If the idling speed of the support plate increases in
course of time, the braking ring (16) is worn and
must be replaced.
Note:
If abrasive material (e.g. filled or painted
surfaces, etc.) is being sanded, the braking ring
inevitably wears faster.
-Use the
hexagon spanner
(10) to unscrew the
fixing screw (15) on the support plate.
- Remove support plate (2).
- Replace the old braking ring (16) with the new
braking ring (see Chapter on Accessories),
ensuring that the new braking ring is in the same
position as the old braking ring. 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.
- Insert locking screw (15) again and tighten.
Do not press the device too firmly against the
surface being sanded. This does not improve, but
rather impairs, the sanding performance.
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
