Advice on use

Q
Light sanding pressure is enough:
A pply light sanding pressure only. The weight
of the belt sander alone is adequate to produce
good sanding results. By adopting this approach
you will also prolong the life of your sanding
belts and obtain a smoother workpiece surface.
Sanding and surfaces:
The sanding output and the quality of the surface
finish obtained are determined by the belt speed
and the grade of grit on the sanding belt (see the
section on "Selecting the correct rotational speed
and sanding belt").
Sanding procedure:
W ith the sander switched on, bring it into con-
tact with the workpiece and move it forward
carefully. Work in parallel and overlapping
widths. Always work in the direction of the grain
to avoid undesirable transverse sanding marks.
After sanding always lift the device from the
workpiece before switching it off.

Vacuum dust extraction

Q
EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL!
If there is an explosive mixture of dust and air you
must use a vacuum device especially intended for
that purpose.
DANGER OF FIRE FROM FLyING SPARKS!
Do not use any form of dust extraction (dust box
or vacuum extraction device) if you are sanding metal.
DANGER OF FIRE! There is
the danger of fire when working with electrical de-
vices that have a dustbox or can be connected to a
vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the wood
dust in the dust collection box (or in the vacuum's
dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a result of flying
sparks generated when abrading metals or metal
objects left in wood. This can happen particularly if
the wood dust is mixed with paint residue or other
chemicals and the abraded particles are hot from
prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must empty the
device's dust collection box and the vacuum clean-
30 GB
er's dust bag before taking a break or stopping
work and always avoid overheating of the abraded
particles and the device.
Wear a dust mask!
Dust extraction with dust box:
P ush the dust box
Dismantle / remove the dust box:
P ress the release button
and withdraw it towards the rear of the device.
Adapter for external vacuum extraction
(with reducer piece)
Connection:
P ush the adapter for external vacuum extraction
into the adapter port
12
use the reducer piece
into the adapter for external vacuum extraction
S lide the hose of a suitable dust extraction de-
vice approved for that purpose (e.g. a workshop
vacuum cleaner) on to the adapter for external
vacuum extraction
if used.
Removal:
P ull off the dust extraction device hose.
P ull off the adapter for external vacuum extrac-
tion (with the reducer piece

Switching on and off

Q
When operating the belt sander you can select
between intermittent or continuous operation mode.
To switch on intermittent operation mode:
P ress the oN / oFF switch
To switch off intermittent operation mode:
R elease the oN / oFF switch
To switch on continuous operation mode:
P ress the oN / oFF switch
pressed, then press the locking knob
on to the adapter port
