Always work with the mains lead leading
away from the rear of the device.
DANGER oF FIRE FRoM FLyING SPARKS!
Abrading metal creates flying sparks. For this
reason, always make sure that nobody is placed
in any danger and that there are no inflamma-
ble materials near the working area.
NoxIoUS FUMES!
Any harmful / noxious dusts generated from
sanding represent a risk to the health of the
person operating the device and to anyone
near the work area.
DUST HAzARD! When
sanding wood and in particular when working
on materials that give rise to dusts that are haz-
ardous to health, the sander must be connected
to a suitable external dust extraction device.
Wear protective glasses and a dust mask!
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when
working on plastic, paint, varnish etc.
Do not soak the materials or the surface you
are about to work on with liquids containing
solvents.
Do not abrade moistened materials or damp
surfaces.
Avoid sanding paints containing lead or other
substances hazardous to health.
Do not work on materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
Avoid contact with the moving sanding sheet.
Operate the device only with an attached
sanding sheet.
Never use the device for a purpose for which it
was not intended nor with non-original parts /
accessories. The use of tools or accessories
other than those recommended in the operating
instructions could lead to you suffering an injury.
Switch the device off and allow it to come to a
standstill before you put it down.
Always keep the device clean, dry and free of
oil or grease.
Q
Preparing for use
CAUTIoN! Make sure that the device is switched
off before you connect it to the mains supply.
Note! Always switch on the delta sander before
bringing it into contact with the workpiece material.
Switching on the device:
Push the ON / OFF switch 8 into Position “ I“.
Switching off the device:
Push the ON / OFF switch 8 into Position “ 0“.
Q Vacuum dust extraction
DANGER oF FIRE! There is
the danger of fire when working with electrical
devices that have a dust box or can be connected
to a vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the
wood dust in the dust extraction bag (or in the
vacuum‘s dust bag) may ignite, e.g. as a result of
flying sparks generated when abrading metals or
metal objects left in wood. This can happen par-
ticularly if the wood dust is mixed with paint resi-
due or other chemicals and the abraded particles
are hot from prolonged abrasion. Therefore you
must empty the device’s dust collection box and the
vacuum cleaner’s dust bag before taking a break
or stopping work and always avoid overheating of
the abraded particles and the device.
Wear a dust mask!
Always pull the mains plug is
out of the socket before doing any work on the
device.
Q
Dust box for internal
vacuum extraction
Mounting:
Slide the dust box for self-generated dust ext-
raction
4b up to the stop on the hand sander.
Removal:
Press the release button 5 of the dust extraction
box for internal vacuum extraction 4b and
withdraw it towards the rear of the device.
