Tips and Hints

Do not exert any great pressure as you guide the
sander/scraper over the surface to be processed.
Pressing harder does not increase the tool's
performance.
Change worn "cling-fit" sanding sheets in good
time to ensure the desired results.
Change the dust filter at regular intervals to
ensure maximum dust extraction.
Sample applications for accessories:
Processing areas which are difficult to access
such as profiles, grooves and tight spaces is rapid
and simple with the special perforated base-plate.
This special base-plate can be fitted with a "cling-
fit" sanding sheet fitted to either its top or bottom
side. All "cling-fit" sanding sheets are available in
a grains of varying coarseness.
Use corundum "cling-fit" sanding sheets to sand
wood, metal, and paintwork, while processing
non-ferrous metals, stone, glass and varnished
surfaces calls for silicon carbide "cling-fit" sanding
sheets.
You can also sand metal, plastics and varnished
surfaces with silicon carbide-coated "cling-fit"
sanding sheets which provide a longer service life
than non-coated "cling-fit" sheets.
Use the "cling-fit" hard felt plate, the "cling-fit"
abrasive nylon web and the "cling-fit" nylon
cleaning web for polishing.
You can remove residual materials, such as the
foam from a carpet backing, traces of adhesives,
plaster and paint with scraper blades of varying
widths or by using the tool with the trowel.

Clean out the dust extraction channel if it
becomes blocked and this adversely affects dust

vacuum extraction nozzle (3), as appropriate.
