Technical Data
Assembly
f Before any work on the power tool itself,
pull the mains plug.
Dust/Chip Extraction
f 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 con-
nection with wood-treatment additives (chro-
mate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be worked by
specialists.
– Use dust extraction whenever possible.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working
place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class
respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your coun-
try for the materials to be worked.
External Dust Extraction (see figure A)
Slide the extraction adapter 9 onto the outlet
piece 8. Ensure that the latching levers of the ex-
traction adapter engage. The extraction adapter
9 accepts a vacuum hose with a diameter of
19 mm.
For removal of the extraction adapter 9, press
the latching levers together at the rear and pull
the extraction adapter off.
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial being worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detri-
mental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Integrated Dust Extraction with Dust Bag
(see figure B)
For small sanding jobs, a dust bag 1 (accessory)
can be connected. Attach the sleeve of the dust
bag firmly onto the outlet piece 8. To maintain
optimum dust collection, empty the dust bag 1 in
good time.
