•   Place the sanding pad with sanding paper on 

the workpiece.

•   Slowly move the machine over the workpiece, 

firmly pressing the sanding pad against the 
workpiece.

•   Do not apply too much pressure on the 

machine. Let the machine do the work.

•   Switch off the machine and wait for the 

machine to come to a complete standstill 
before putting the machine down.

5. MAINTENANCE

 Before cleaning and maintenance, always 
switch off the machine and remove the 
battery pack from the machine.

Clean the machine casings regularly with a soft 
cloth, preferably after each use. Make sure that 
the ventilation openings are free of dust and 
dirt. Remove very persistent dirt using a soft 
cloth moistened with soapsuds. Do not use any 
solvents such as gasoline, alcohol, ammonia, 
etc. Chemicals such as these will damage the 
synthetic components.
