compressed air supply, make sure that the switch
is not activated.
– Be alert! Pay attention to what you are doing. Al-
ways work with care.
Do not use the compressed air tool if you are not
able to concentrate properly.
– Have your compressed air tool repaired by a
qualified specialist.This compressed air tool cor-
responds to the relevant safety regulations. Re-
pairs should only be carried out by a qualified
specialist. The operator is otherwise at risk of an
accident.
– Only work with correctly processed compressed
air.Using the Festool supply unit VE guarantees
this.

Emission levels

Levels determined in accordance with EN ISO 15744/ISO 28927 are typically:
type
LEX 2 185/7
*For information: According to the old EN ISO 8662.
Wear ear protection.
The specified emissions values (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary esti-
mates regarding vibration and noise loads during
operation.
– They represent the primary applications of the
power tool.
Increase possible for other applications, with other
insertion tools or if not maintained adequately. Take
note of idling and downtimes of machine!

– If the compressed air tool is dropped or falls,
check for damage to the machine and sanding
pad. Remove the sanding pad for closer inspec-
tion. Repair damaged parts before using again.
Broken sanding pads and damaged machines
can cause injuries and machine instability.

Other risks

In spite of compliance with all relevant design reg-
ulations, dangers may still present themselves
when the machine is operated, e.g.:
– Workpiece parts being thrown off,
– Parts of damaged tools being thrown off,
– Noise emissions,
– Dust emissions.

5.1 Compressed-air processing
The Festool service unit should always be used to
ensure that Festool pneumatic tools function cor-
rectly. Consisting of a filter, control unit, condensa-
tion drain and lubricator, the service unit cleans and
lubricates the compressed air and keeps it free of
condensation. Here, the lubricator should be set so
that a drop is applied to the compressed air approx.
every 7-10 minutes.
Damage that occurs as a result of incorrect com-
pressed-air processing is excluded from warranty
claims.
 We recommend a service unit with a 3/8" con-
nector, when up to two Festool pneumatic tools
are used.
A compressor that supplies at 500 l/min and at an
operating pressure of 6 bar should be used to sup-
ply compressed-air.
The diameter of the piping system must be suffi-
ciently large (at least 9 mm).
5.2 IAS 3 hose connector
The sander is a pneumatic tool for connection to the
Festool IAS 3 system. This hose system combines
three functions in one hose:
• Dust extraction [1-3]
Connection and disconnection - see Fig. [3].
