spinning fastening cords may make contact with
your fingers or become caught in the workpiece.
Special safety guidelines on sanding:

2  Description of the device
Whether in use in the automotive industry following
painting, or to finish exposed metal surfaces, for
restoration, cleaning, corrosion removal or producing
that “finishing touch”, including on plastic, wood and
stone:
The WP/E angle polisher is a powerful but, nevertheless,
extremely compact device for use in every application!
A robust two-stage gearbox in a solid cast aluminium
gearbox casing transmits power from the carefully bal-
anced and extremely quiet permanent magnet DC
motor, thus providing enormous torque and a proper
working speed for the polishing tool used.
In addition, the sensitive electronic control system
enables its optimum adaptation to suit the most varied
application purposes.
This means that the right speed and adequate power
are always available to work with!
And, to ensure that power is applied under control and
the polishing tool guided exactly, the device has a com-
pact and ergonomic housing with an integrated soft
component.
It is therefore pleasant to hold at all times and can be
guided without fatigue.
Our WP/E also offers flexibility when selecting the
material to be polished. With a comprehensive choice
of carefully selected accessories, you can get started
immediately, regardless of whether you are tackling
bare metal or painted or coated surfaces! This manual
will show you how to use your angle polisher to achieve
the best results and all the other options it offers you!
