Working procedures
A light grinding pressure is sufficient:
■
Apply minimal pressure when grinding . The belt
sander's own weight is sufficient for a good
grinding result . In addition, working this way
helps to reduce the wear on the abrasive belt
and the surface of the workpiece will become
smoother .
Removal and surface:
■
The material removal rate and surface quality
are determined by the belt speed and grain
strength of the sandpaper (see also the section
"Selecting speed and abrasive belt") .
Grinding:
■
Place the appliance on the workpiece when
switched on and work at a moderate feed rate .
Guide the sander in parallel and overlapping
sanding motions over the workpiece . To avoid
unpleasant transverse grinding marks, always
sand in the direction of the grain .
After completing the task, lift the appliance from
the workpiece and then switch it off .
NOTE
►
Always hold the appliance firmly with two
hands while working .
Dust extraction
WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION!
■
If there is an explosive dust/air mixture, you
must use a specially-designed extraction
device .
RISK OF FIRE DUE TO FLYING SPARKS!
Do not use dust extraction systems (dust col-
lector or vacuum cleaners) when grinding
metals .
■
Materials containing asbestos may not be pro-
cessed . Asbestos is a known carcinogen .
WARNING! RISK OF FIRE!
■
When working with power tools which
have a dust collector or can be connected
to a vacuum cleaner via a vacuum cleaner
adapter, there is a risk of fire! In unfavourable
conditions, e .g . when sparks are flying while
sanding metal or metal residues in wood,
wood dust in the dust collector (or the bag
of the vacuum cleaner) can spontaneously
ignite . This is a particular risk if the wood
dust is mixed with paint residues or other
chemicals and the workpiece has become hot
after being worked for a long time . Therefore,
do not allow the workpiece to overheat and
always empty the dust box or the dust bag
of the vacuum cleaner before taking a break
from work .
■
Ensure that your workplace is adequately
ventilated .
■
Observe the regulations applicable in
your country regarding the materials to be
worked .
■
Wear a dust mask.
Dust extraction with dust collector (see fig. C):
♦
Push the dust collector onto the extraction
nozzle .
Dismantling/removing the dust collector:
♦
Pull the dust collector off the appliance .
Dust extraction adapter (with reducer )
(see fig. C):
♦
Push the dust extraction adapter onto the
extraction nozzle . If necessary, use the re-
ducer by pushing it onto the dust extraction
adapter .
♦
Push the hose from a suitable dust extraction
appliance (e .g . a workshop vacuum cleaner)
onto the dust extraction adapter ; use the
reducer if necessary .
