Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or 
signs onto the power tool. The protective 
insulation can thereby be rendered inef-
fective. Adhesive labels are recom-
mended.
Only use an undamaged plug and cable.
Damage to property/material
Mains voltage must correspond with the 
voltage specifications on the power tool.
Personal protective equipment.
When treating coatings that contain lead, 
or some types of wood or metal, injuri-
ous/poisonous dust is produced. Touch-
ing or breathing in this dust could prove 
dangerous for the operator or anyone 
who happens to be in the vicinity.
Permanent exposure to intensive sound 
can lead to deafness.
Use your personal protective equipment. 
For protection against dust, use a dust 
mask or a respirator that must be capable 
of filtering the particles produced during 
operation. Irrespective of the application, 
wear a protective face mask or glasses, 
protective gloves and a hairnet (for long 
hair).
Ear protection is recommended when 
operating belt sanding machines.
Handling.
Switching ON/OFF (2).
■
First check that the cable and plug are 
not damaged.
Switching the power tool ON:
■
Slide switch (2) forwards (I).
Switching the power tool OFF:
■
Press the switch (2) down at the 
back (0).
When switching on, the motor starts run-
ning gently after a short delay.
If the power supply is interrupted while 
the power tool is switched on, or the 
power tool is plugged in when it is in 
switched-on mode, a residual current 
protective device prevents it from starting 
to run automatically. To put the power 
tool into operation, briefly switch it off 
and on again.
Setting the speed (1).
Using the speed controller (1), the opti-
mum speed for the sanding belt can be set 
according to the work piece and the 
accessories used.
Operating instructions (5).
The power tool with the sanding belt 
should be brought towards the pipe (a) to 
be sanded at a right-angle, until at least half 
of the pipe is surrounded by the sanding 
belt.
Sand the pipe evenly, constantly using a 
lengthways movement.
Always hold the power tool at right-
angles to the pipe, even where the pipe is 
curved.
Always hold the power tool in both 
hands.
Securing or changing the
