Dust/Chip Extraction

Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metal can be harmful to one's health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in
connection with wood-treatment additives
(chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
– Use dust extraction whenever possible.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
ing place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-
class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials to be worked.

ed to loosen the dust from the filter element by
gently striking it against a firm support (as

ment 11 upward and empty the dust box. Clean

An overview for connecting to different vacuum
cleaners can be found at the end of these oper-
ating instructions.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial being worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially det-
rimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Replacing the Sanding Sheet
(see figure E)
When attaching a new sanding sheet, remove
any dust or debris from the sanding plate 5 (e. g.
with a brush).
To ensure optimum dust extraction, pay atten-
tion that the punched holes in the sanding sheet
match with the holes in the sanding plate.
The sanding plate 5 is fitted with Velcro backing
for quick and easy fastening of sanding sheets
with Velcro adhesion.
Before attaching the sanding sheet 4, free the
Velcro backing of the sanding plate 5 from any
debris by tapping against it in order to enable
optimum adhesion.
The machine is fitted with 2 sanding sheets that
can be changed individually, depending on the
degree of wear.
Only use the machine when both sanding
sheets are mounted.
Only use sanding sheets with the same
grain size.
Position the sanding sheet 4 flush alongside one
edge of the sanding plate 5, then lay the sanding
sheet onto the sanding plate and press firmly.
To remove the sanding sheet 4, grasp it at one
of the tips and pull it off from the sanding plate
5.
Sanding sheets of the Bosch Delta Sander can
be used.
Sanding accessories, such as fleece pads/pol-
ishing cloth pads, are attached to the sanding
plate in the same manner.
