Before plugging in, check to see that the rated
mains voltage and mains frequency, as
specified on the rating label, match your power
supply.
Additional handle
The additional handle (9) can be fitted in 2 positions
(at different heights).
- Unscrew screw (10) with hexagon spanner (7)
and remove.
- Shift the additional handle. The 2nd position is
reached when the screw can be pushed in.
- Insert screw with hexagon spanner and tighten.
7.1 Dust extraction
Dust bag:
Mount the dust bag (2) with its connector on the
machine's ejection nozzle (3) and turn
counterclockwise as far as the stop (bayonet
catch).
To optimise the extraction performance, empty the
dust bag in good time. The dust bag should not be
filled with sanding dust beyond 1/3 of its capacity.
When emptying the dust bag, ensure that
sanding dust cannot penetrate your body or
harm other persons.
Dust extraction with a dust extractor:
During long periods of sanding wood and - in
commercial applications - materials where dust that
is harmful to health is created during processing
(e.g. beech and oak, leaded coatings, metals), the
belt sander must be connected to an extraction
device suitable for this purpose.
Comment: In Germany, extraction devices certified
according to TRGS 533 (Technical Rules on
Dangerous Substances) must be used to extract
wood dust. For other materials, commercial users
must clarify the special requirements with the
responsible employer's liability insurance
association.
- Remove the dust bag (2).
(Bayonet catch! Turn the dust bag clockwise and
remove from the machine's ejection nozzle (3)
together with its connector.)
- Fit adapter (8) onto ejection nozzle (3).
- Fit the hose on the adapter (8).
(Fitting requires exertion of force. Use a hose with
connector dia. 35 mm, e.g. the hose from a
Metabo universal vacuum cleaner or the hose an
another vacuum cleaner suitable for this purpose.)
7.2 On/Off switch, continuous activation
Note: Switch the machine on first before
mounting it on the workpiece.
To start the machine, press the trigger switch (6).
For continuous operation the trigger switch can be
locked using the lock button (5). To stop the
machine, press the trigger switch (6) again.
In continuous operation, the machine
continues running if it is forced out of your
hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided, stand in a
safe position and concentrate.
7.3 Setting belt speed
Set the belt speed at the adjusting wheel (4). This is
also possible during operation.
The required belt speed depends on the material
and the working conditions and can be determined
through practical tests.
If - as a result of overloading - the motor speed (and
thus the belt speed) decreases significantly during
work, the adjusting wheel (4) must be set to a higher
value (than the previous one).
7.4 Adjusting belt run
Use the rotary knob (1) to adjust the sanding
belt - with the machine running - so that it runs
centrally on the sanding belt roller.
7.5 Sanding procedure
Switch the machine on first before mounting it on
the workpiece.
Mount the belt sander on the material, holding it with
both hands - with the sanding belt parallel to the
workpiece surface.
Keep the machine in constant motion because
otherwise recesses could be produced in the
material.
It is not necessary to exert additional pressure on
the machine when sanding. It is sufficient to guide it
and allow its well distributed weight to run it.
7.6 Sanding belt replacement
Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
Swivel out lever (12) as far as it will go. This relieves
sanding belt tension and it can now be removed
from the rollers.
For sanding belts, see Accessories chapter 10..
Place the new sanding belt on the rollers such that
its direction of circulation (arrows on the inside of
the sanding belt) matches the arrow (11) on the
machine housing.
To tension the sanding belt, press the lever (12)
back into its initial position.
