• Due to our continuing program of research and devel-
opment, the specifications herein are subject to change
without notice.
• Note: Specifications may differ from country to country.
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated in accordance with European Standard
and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without
earth wire.
Safety hints
For your own safety, please refer to enclosed safety
instructions.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1. Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Con-
tact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
3. Make sure the belt is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
4. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
5. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
6. This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not
use water on the workpiece surface.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Installing or removing abrasive belt (Fig. 1)
Important:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the belt.
Pull the lever all the way out and install the belt over the
rollers, then return the lever to the original position.
CAUTION:
When installing the belt, make sure that the direction of
the arrow on the back of the belt corresponds to the one
on the tool itself. (Fig. 2)
Adjusting belt tracking (Fig. 3)
Switch on the tool and make sure that the belt is aligned
properly. If the edge of the belt extends beyond the edge
of the steel plate or the edge of the belt retracts more
than 8 mm away from the edge of the steel plate, use the
adjusting screw to adjust the belt tracking.
Dust bag (Fig. 4)
Attach the dust bag onto the dust spout. The dust spout
is tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it onto the
dust spout firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from com-
ing off during operation. For the best results, empty the
dust bag when it becomes about half full, tapping it lightly
to remove as much dust as possible.
Switch action (Fig. 5)
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when released.
• The tool should not be in contact with the workpiece
surface when you turn the tool on or off. Otherwise a
poor sanding finish or damage of the belt may result.
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the trig-
ger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the trigger and
then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the
locked position, pull the trigger fully, then release it.
