Working Advice
The material removal rate and surface quality are primarily
determined by the choice of abrasive tool, the pre-selected
speed setting and the contact pressure.
Only immaculate abrasive tools will deliver good grinding
performance and protect the power tool.
Use only original
Bosch
-sanding accessories.
Preselecting the speed
You can preselect the required speed using the thumbwheel
for speed preselection
(7)
, even during operation.
If the final setting of "6" is reached, the thumbwheel audibly
engages.
1 − 2 low speed
3 − 4 medium speed
5 − 6 high speed
The required speed depends on the material and the work-
ing conditions; it can be ascertained through practical tests.
The figures in the table below are recommended values.

After working at a low speed for an extended period, you
should operate the power tool at the maximum speed
without load for approx. three minutes to cool it down.
Sanding
– Switch the power tool on, place the entire sanding sur-
face against the surface of the workpiece and apply mod-
erate pressure as you move the sander over the work-
piece.
– Be sure to apply consistent contact pressure, in order to
increase the service life of the abrasive tools. An excess-
ive increase of the sanding pressure does not lead to an
increase of the sanding capacity, but to increased wear of
the power tool and the abrasive tool.
– Do not use an abrasive tool for other materials after it has
been used to work on metal.

Maintenance and Cleaning
u
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
work on the power tool.
