Sanding
Place the entire sanding surface of the eccentric san-
der onto the piece to be sanded. Only then should the
sander be turned on. Apply only light pressure when
switching on the device.
The pressure of the eccentric sander on the workpiece and
the grain of the selected sanding disc influence the re-
moval rate and the surface appearance.
The removal rate is determined by the rotational speed of
the sanding plate.
Rough finish
Apply only light pressure to the sander. The rotating sand-
ing plate will remove more surface from the workpiece.
Fine finish
When more pressure is applied to the eccentric sander,
the sanding plate will rotate more slowly but the eccentric
motion will remain and the finish will be like that of an
oscillating type sander.
Attention!
The eccentric sander must be used for dry work only!
The overlaid sanding motion rotating/oscillating produces
similarly good results to wet sanding.
Selecting the right sanding plate
The selected sanding plate (harder/softer) depends on the
material being sanded (see table of application examples).
Fitting the sanding plate
Caution!
Disconnect the mains plug!
Attach sanding plate (6) to the tool and screw on with the
3 fixing screws (7).
Replace damaged sanding plates immediately! Never
start the tool when there is no sanding plate attached!
Mounting the sanding tools
Use only the original KRESS sanding tools with the self-
adhesive Velcro fastener.
Caution!
Disconnect the mains plug!
Clean the sanding plate if it is dirty!
The sanding tools (8) are simply pressed onto the sanding
plate (6). The holes in the sanding disc must correspond to
the holes in the sanding plate. Only then can malfunction-
free suction of sanding dust be guaranteed.
Care and maintenance
Every tool becomes fouled with dust and dirt when work-
ing with wood. A little care is therefore indispensible. It is
especially important to always keep the holes for cooling
the motor free of dust and dirt.
Blow out the motor with pressurized air regularly (at shorter
intervals when in heavy use). All moving parts are lubri-
cated sufficiently with grease before leaving the factory.
The eccentric sander is practically maintenance-free.
Replacing carbon brushes
Our service personnel will do this and all other servicing
work fast and professionally.
Power cable
Damaged power cables may not be used. They must be
replaced immediately by a qualified electrician.
Attention!
Pull mains plug prior to starting any type of mainten-
ance job!
