Before starting the equipment

Open the packaging and remove the device carefully.
Remove the packaging material as well as the packag-
ing and transport bracing (if available).
Check that the delivery is complete.
Check the device and accessory parts for transport
damage.
If possible, store the packaging until the warranty pe-
riod has expired.
ATTENTION
The device and packaging materials are not toys! Chil-
dren must not be allowed to play with plastic bags, film
and small parts! There is a risk of swallowing and suf-
focation!
Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply
make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical
to the mains data.
• Report any damage immediately to the transport
company which was used to deliver the power tool.
• Avoid long supply lines (extension cables).
• Do not operate the power tool in a damp or wet room.
• The power tool may only be operated in suitable
rooms (well ventilated).

8. Attachment and operation

Installation (fig. 2-3)
- Fold the front and back part together. And then tight-
en the Set Screw (3).
Fitting the telescopic extension (fig. 4)
Insert the telescopic extension (11) into the connection
for the telescopic extension (12) and lock it by twisting
as shown in fig. 4.
Note: Adjust the Telescopic Plasterboard Sander with
the telescopic extension (11) so that you can work with
it most comfortably. The machine can also be used
without telescopic extension.

Sandpaper
Selection
1. The grain size of the sandpaper is specified on its
rear side. The smaller the specified number, the
coarser the graining.
2. Use sandpaper with coarse grain for rough grind-
ing, and sandpaper with fine grain for finishing.
We recommend sandpapers with aluminium ox-
ide, silicon carbide or other synthetic abrasives.
3. lf you can chose between sandpapers with differ-
ent graining, you should start with coarse grain-
ing sandpaper and complete the grinding process
with the finest possible graining. Thus you will get
good and smooth grinding results.
How to apply and replace sandpaper
1. Apply the sandpaper (16) to the grinding plate (1)
using the Velcro strip mechanism.
2. Align the sandpaper (16) with the grinding plate
(1) and press it on evenly.
3. PuII the sandpaper (16) off the grinding plate (1)
and replace it with a new one / another one (fig. 7).
Dust extraction
WARNING! Harmfull noxious gases may be generated
when e.g. lead-containing paint is processed. These
gases entail a risk for the operator and the persons
in the vicinity!
Therefore only use the power tool in combination with
a dust extraction unit, and protect yourself and other
persons in the working area with additional suitable
personal protective equipment!
When working with this power tool, a Iot of dust is
generated. The dust extraction unit is very useful if
you want to keep your workplace clean. lt is possible
to combine the extraction system or a vacuum cleaner
with the extraction hose (14) which is connected to the
adapter for dust extraction.
Insert the hose adaptor (15) into the connection for dust
extraction (10 or 12) and lock it by twisting as shown in
fig. 5 and 6.
Note: Connect your tool to an extraction unit or vacuum
cleaner. This will provide excellent extraction of dust
and debris.
m Attention! For health safety reasons it is imperative
that you use a dust extractor.
Note: Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is suitable
for being used together with a power tool.
Brush edge
The grinding head of this power tool is enclosed by a
brush edge which offers the following two advantages:
a) The brush edge protrudes beyond the grinding
plate (1) and touches the surface to be processed
first. Thus, the grinding plate is positioned in par-
allel to the working area before the insertion tool
comes in contact with the surface which is to be
processed. This is to prevent the formation of
sickle-shaped recesses caused by the grinding
disk edge.
b) Furthermore, the brush edge prevents the genera-
tion of excessive dust. Dust generated du ring the
grinding process is not transported towards the
outside but is removed by the extraction system.
Make sure before each operation with this power
tool that the brush edge is not damaged. Have it
replaced if there is damage or wear.
Connection to the power supply
1. Make sure that the power tool is switched off. Al-
ways switch the on/off switch (13) to off position
before connecting the power tool to the power
supply.
2. Plug the power plug into a correctly installed sock-
et which complies with the requirements specified
in the technical data.
3. Your power tool is now ready for operation.
Switching on/off
To switch on:
Push the on/ off switch (13)
Continuous operation: (fig. 9)
Secure the on/off switch (13) with the locking button (6)
To switch off:
Press the on/off switch (13) briefly.
Adjusting the oscillation rate (fig. 8)
Before you start working, adjust the oscillation rate ac-
cording to the application. Use a low number of oscil-
lations for rough grinding, increase the oscillation rate
for fine work.
www.scheppach.com
Adjust the oscillation rate by pressing the button (5).
• Press the button to increase the oscillation rate
(fig. 8).
• Press the button to decrease the oscillation rate
(fig. 8).
Note: The insertion tool moves for a short while after
having it switched off. Do not put aside the power tool
until the insertion tool has come to a complete halt.
Grinding
1. Attach an appropriate abrasive sheet (16) and se-
lect the corresponding speed.
2. Hold the power tool securely at the handle surfac-
es (7, 2) and switch it on as described.
3. Wait until the insertion tool has reached its full
operating speed.
4. Hold the grinding plate (1) as parallel as possible
to the wall, and touch the surface to be processed
with the brush edge first.
5. Apply some pressure to the grinding head (1) such
that the insertion tool touches the surface to be
processed.
6. Constantly move the power tool over the surface.
Note: lf you want to avoid irregular grinding results,
do not keep the power tool at one spot for too long.
7. Lift the grinding plate (1) from the surface to be
processed before switching off the power tool.
8. Do not put aside the power tool until the insertion
tool has come to a complete halt.
Ceiling grinding (fig. 11)
For working in ceiling area, fix the grinding head with a
cotter pin (19) (included) as shown in figure 11.
LED light (fig. 10)
To ensure a well lit workplace, use the LED light (4) if
necessary.
Press the switch (20) to switch ON/OFF the LED light
(4).
After use
1. Switch off the power tool as described, discon-
nect it from the power supply and Iet it cool down.
2. Clean and maintain the power tool as described
below, and store it carefully.
