7.2.1 Plug-in tools
Sawing:
Sawing wood and plastic.
Notes on working practice: When sawing, watch out
for foreign bodies in the workpiece and remove these
if necessary. Plunge cutting is allowed only in soft
materials such as wood or plasterboard.
Sanding/grinding:
Surface sanding/grinding at
edges, in corners or hard-to-reach areas. Depending
on choice of sanding/grinding paper for the
sanding/grinding of wood, paint, lacquer, etc.
Notes on working practice: This equipment offers
particularly high performance for the sanding/grinding
of hard-to-reach corners and edges. To sand/grind
profiles and channels you can also work with just the
tip or the edge of the sanding/grinding disk. Various
sanding/grinding papers are available, specially
designed for the different types of material you may
be working on and the amount you wish to remove
from the surface. The amount removed will depend
largely on the choice of sanding/grinding paper and
pressure applied to the sanding/grinding disk.
Scraping:
Scraping off old paint or adhesives.
Notes on working practice: Move the plug-in tool
against the area you want to remove. Begin with a flat
angle of incidence and little pressure. The surface
(e.g. wood, plaster) may be damaged if too much
pressure is used.
