even beams and boards

accessories.

actly the same way as the original sanding sheet.

Using the triangular, thin, elongated sanding plate
(17)
en-
ables you to sand difficult-to-reach places and tight spaces
such as window and door posts, grooves, or behind radiat-
ors and water pipes.

Fine sanding plate (without hook-and-loop backing)
(see figures A–B)
If you primarily use standard sanding sheets without hook-
and-loop backing, we recommend using the fine sanding
plate without hook-and-loop backing. The flat surface of the
fine sanding plate will help achieve optimal sanding results,
especially when carrying out fine sanding.

The auxiliary handle
(1)
enables comfortable handling and
optimum power distribution, with a high sanding removal
rate in particular.
Use the screw
