Operation

Starting Operation

Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V can
also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 2
and keep it depressed.
To lock the pressed On/Off switch 2, press the
lock-on button 3.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off
switch 2 or when it is locked with the lock-on but-
ton 3, briefly press the On/Off switch 2 and then
release it.
Preselecting the Orbital Stroke Rate
With the thumbwheel for preselection of the or-
bital stroke rate 1, you can preselect the required
orbital stroke rate, even during operation.
The required stroke rate depends on the material
and the working conditions and can be deter-
mined through practical testing.
Working Advice
Wait until the machine has come to a stand-
still before placing it down.
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly de-
termined by the selection of the sanding sheet as
well as the preselected orbital stroke rate.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sand-
ing capacity and extend the service life of the ma-
chine.
Bosch Power Tools
Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pressure;
this increases the working life of the sanding
sheets.
Intensifiying the sanding pressure does not lead
to an increase of the sanding capacity, but to in-
creased wear of the machine and the sanding
sheet.
A sanding sheet that has been used for metal
should not be used for other materials.
Use only original Bosch sanding accessories.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and ventilation slots clean.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken
in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair
should be carried out by an after-sales service
centre for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts order,
please always include the 10-digit article number
given on the type plate of the machine.
WARNING! Important instructions for connect-
ing a new 3-pin plug to the 2-wire cable.
The wires in the cable are coloured according to
the following code:
Do not connect the blue or brown wire to the
earth terminal of the plug.
Important: If for any reason the moulded plug is
removed from the cable of this power tool, it
must be disposed of safely.
