Mounting/Replacing a Sanding Sheet on the
Sanding Plate
The sanding plate 10 is fitted with Velcro backing for quick
and easy fastening of sanding sheets with Velcro adhesion.
Before attaching the sanding sheet 11, free the Velcro back-
ing of the sanding plate 10 from any debris by tapping against
it in order to enable optimum adhesion.
Position the sanding sheet 11 flush alongside one edge of the
sanding plate 10, then lay the sanding sheet onto the sanding
plate and press firmly.
Selecting the Sanding Sheet
Depending on the material to be worked and the required rate of material removal, different sanding sheets are available:
Sanding disc Material
– All wooden materials
(e.g., hardwood, soft-
wood, chipboard, build-
ing board)
– Metal materials
Red quality
– Paint
– Varnish
– Filling compound

Dust/Chip Extraction

 Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car-
cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con-
taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable
for the material.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
 Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
easily ignite.
Connecting the Dust Extraction
The dust extraction 17 is intended only when working with the
sanding plate 10; it is not of use in combination with other ap-
plication tools.
For sanding, always connect the dust extraction.
1 609 92A 2SY | (15.3.16)
To ensure optimum dust extraction, pay attention that the
punched holes in the sanding sheet match with the holes in
the sanding plate.
To remove the sanding sheet 11, grasp it at one of the tips and
pull it off from the sanding plate 10.
You can use all sanding sheets, fleece pads/polishing cloth
pads of the Delta 93 mm series of Bosch accessory program.
Sanding accessories, such as fleece pads/polishing cloth
pads, are attached to the sanding plate in the same manner.
Application
For coarse-sanding, e.g. of rough, unplaned beams and
boards
For face sanding and planing small irregularities
For finish and fine sanding of wood
For sanding off paint
For sanding primer (e.g., for removing brush dashes,
drops of paint and paint run)
For final sanding of primers before coating
To mount the dust extraction 17 (accessory), remove the ap-
plication tool and the depth stop 12.
Slide the dust extraction 17 all the way over the tool holder 6
onto the collar of the power tool. Turn the dust extraction to
the required position (not directly under the power tool).
Press shut the clamping lever 16 to fix the dust extraction.
Plug the tool sleeve of the vacuum hose 14 onto the vacuum
connection 15. Connect the vacuum hose 14 to a vacuum
cleaner (accessory).
An overview for connecting to various vacuum cleaners can be
found on the graphics page.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
