5 Fitting the CMS-MOD-BS 120 in the
CMS-GE
Ensure that the plugs on the CMS-GE's and
CMS-MOD-BS 120's mains leads are not
connected to the mains socket before start-
ing assembly work.

The CMS-MOD-BS 120 module unit is laid in the
groove in the table in such a way that the work
piece approaches the belt sander's sanding
area from the left (sanding area accessible from
the left).

Hold the unit against the grooves (1.1) when as-
sembling and firstly insert the connecting lead
into the table frame.

Use a screwdriver to tighten the two locking
screws (1.11) which hold the CMS-MOD-BS 120
in the table.

The enclosed handle (3.1) is screwed into the le-
ver and the extractor hood (2.1) fastened in the
groove in the table with the rotary knob (2.2).

Electrical connection

WARNING
Unauthorised voltage or frequency!
Risk of accident

The mains voltage and the frequency of the pow-
er source must correspond with the specifica-
tions on the machine's name plate.

In North America, only Festool machines with
the voltage specifications 120 V/60 Hz may be
used.
A 10 A fuse (for the 230 V model) or corresponding
power breaker are adequate.

The CMS-MOD-BS 120's connecting lead plug
can now be plugged into the CMS-GE's coupling
socket.

The CMS-GE or CMS-MOD-BS 120 connecting
lead is then connected to a Festool dust ex-
tractor or to the mains.
The tool is now ready for operation, though it
should not be switched on before a rough ad-
justment of the belt.

The tool is switched on by pressing the green
switch (1.3).

The red button is the OFF button.
 The switch (1.2) has a neutral circuit breaker.
When the power is interrupted the machine
does not automatically restart when the power
is restored. The green ON button has to be
pressed.

7.1 Changing the sanding belt
Sanding belts with different grains are avail- able
from the range of accessories for various sanding
and polishing work. The roller closest to the switch
(sanding roller 1.5) can be pivoted out of its position
to change the sanding belt. Push the handle (3.1) of
the clamping lever (3.2) backwards (towards the
motor). If the handle is not pressed down during
this movement the threaded stem in the lever en-
gages in a catch and holds the sanding roller in its
rear position. The sanding belt can now be easily
changed. If the handle of the locking lever (3.1) is
pressed down the catch is released. The roller then
automatically swings back into its working position
and the sanding belt is tightened. If the lever or
suspension is slightly bent so that the catch is no
longer secure the threaded stem can be adjusted
accordingly (3.2).
7.2 Adjusting the belt
If the central axes of the two sanding rolls are not
completely parallel, the sanding belt tends to drift
to one side. To adjust the running of the belt the axis
of the roller furthest away from the switch (drive
roller) can be slightly tilted by turning the rotary
knob (3.3). Clockwise adjustment (belt runs down-
wards). Before switching the tool on check whether
the sanding belt runs up or down by rotating the
belt by hand. Move the belt firmly by hand a number
of rotations, the more rotations which are made by
the belt the easier it ease to check its true running.
A ceramic starting plate (1.12) has been fitted to
start the belt if this runs slightly out of true down-
wards. The rear sanding belt cover (1.9) is moved to
within 4 mm of the sanding belt and screwed to the
table before starting the machine. The dust ex-
tractor should also be positioned correctly.
