40 — 240
ton 3, briefly press the On/Off switch 2 and then

Preselecting the Orbital Stroke Rate
With the speed dial for preselection of the orbital

The required stroke rate depends on the material
and the working conditions and can be deter-
mined through practical testing.

Working Instructions

180, 240 Wait until the tool has come to a standstill
before placing it down.
40 — 320
The removal capacity during sanding is mainly de-
termined by the selection of the sanding sheet as
well as the preselected orbital stroke rate.
Only flawless sanding sheets achieve good sand-
ing capacity and extend the service life of the
40, 60
tool.
Pay attention to apply uniform sanding pressure;
this increases the working life of the sanding
sheets.
180, 240, 320
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.
