Maintenance And Service - Bosch GSS Professional 230 A Notice Originale

Auxiliary Handle
The auxiliary handle 1 enables convenient han-
dling and optimal distribution of power, especial-
ly at high removal rates.
Fasten the auxiliary handle 1 with screw 2 to the
casing.
Operation
Starting Operation
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the type plate of the
power tool.
Switching On and Off
To start the power tool, press the On/Off switch
4 and keep it pressed.
To lock the pressed On/Off switch 4, press the
lock-on button 5.
To switch off the power tool, release the On/Off
switch 4 or when it is locked with the lock-on but-
ton 5, briefly press the On/Off switch 4 and then
release it.
Preselecting the Orbital Stroke Rate
(GSS 230 AE/GSS 280 AE)
With the speed dial for preselection of the orbital
stroke rate 3, you can preselect the required or-
bital 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 Instructions
Wait until the tool has come to a standstill
before placing it down.
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly
determined by the selection of the sanding sheet
as well as the preselected orbital stroke rate
(GSS 230 AE/GSS 280 AE).
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sand-
ing capacity and extend the service life of the
tool.
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 tool 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.
