The Constant Electronic keeps the speed at no load and un-
der load virtually consistent, guaranteeing uniform perform-
ance.

Practical advice

Move the backing pad with disc evenly back and forth with
light pressure to achieve an optimum work result. Pressure
that is too strong reduces the performance capability of the
power tool and causes the grinding tool to wear more
quickly.
Protect the grinding tools against impact.

Transport

The recommended lithium-ion batteries are subject to legis-
lation on the transport of dangerous goods. The user can
transport the batteries by road without further require-
ments.
When shipping by third parties (e.g.: by air transport or for-
warding agency), special requirements on packaging and la-
belling must be observed. For preparation of the item being
shipped, consulting an expert for hazardous material is re-
quired.
Dispatch battery packs only when the housing is undam-
aged. Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the bat-
tery in such a manner that it cannot move around in the
packaging. Please also observe the possibility of more de-
tailed national regulations.

mentally correct manner.
If disposed incorrectly, waste electrical and electronic
