Work instructions

Brush ring
A brush-type rim surrounds the round sanding
head. This rim has two functions:
– As the ring projects above the surface of the
sanding plate, it is the ring which comes into
contact with the work surface first. As a
result, the sanding head is brought parallel
to the work surface before the sanding tool
comes into contact with the work surface.
This avoids a sickle-shaped depression
caused by the edge of the sanding disc.
– The ring also retains the dust until it is
extracted by the dust extractor.
If the brush ring is damaged or shows excessive
wear, it should be replaced (see section entitled
"Maintenance and care"). Replacement brush
rings are available from any FLEX customer
service centre.
Round sanding head
When working on the round sanding head,
apply only as much pressure as is required to
keep the sanding tool in contact with the work
surface. Excessive pressure may result in a
disagreeable spiral pattern of scratches and an
uneven work surface.
Move the sander constantly while the sanding
tool is in contact with the work surface. In doing
so, ensure that you move the sander evenly and
over a wide area. If you stop the sander on the
work surface or move the sander unevenly, this
may result in a disagreeable spiral pattern of
scratches and an uneven work surface.
The sanding disc can be replaced if it is
damaged or severely abraded (see section
entitled "Maintenance and care").
Triangular sanding head
The triangular sanding head does not rotate,
but vibrates.
As the triangular sanding head can revolve on
bearings, it can sand right into the corners of
the wall/ceiling.
In the corners reduce the contact pressure,
otherwise there will be excessive load on the
tips of the triangular sanding disc.

Heavily worn corners of the triangular sanding
head can easily be replaced.

Replacing the sanding plate on the
round sanding head
 Take hold of the sanding plate together with
the sanding head housing to prevent the
sanding plate from turning.
