• Mounting/removing of vacuum cleaner adapter 4
! do not use vacuum cleaner when sanding metal
• On/off
- before switching on the tool, you should place it with
the entire sanding surface on the workpiece
- when switching on, do not apply too much pressure
on the tool
- switch on/off the tool by pushing switch H in "I"/"O"
position
! be aware of the sudden impact when the tool is
switched on
! before switching off the tool, you should lift it
from the workpiece
• Speed control
For optimal sanding results on different materials
- with wheel J you can adjust the sanding speed
steplessly from minimum to maximum
- always adjust speed to grit size used
- for determining the optimal speed and grit, table 7
can be used as reference
! always test out first on a piece of scrap material
• Holding and guiding the tool
! while working, always hold the tool at the grey-
coloured grip area(s) 5
- guide the tool parallel to the working surface and
move it in circles or in a cross pattern
- do not tilt the tool in order to avoid deep unwanted
sanding marks
- keep the ventilation slots uncovered
• Sanding
- the amount of material removed is determined by the
speed of the sanding disc and the grit size used
- the speed of the sanding disc diminishes relative to
the pressure applied to the tool
- for faster removal, do not increase pressure on the
tool, but use a coarser grit size
• Polishing
When used with the appropriate accessories, such as a
foam polishing head and a lambswool polishing bonnet,
this tool can be applied for polishing
APPLICATION ADVICE
• Never use the same sanding disc for wood and metal
• Use different grit sizes when the working surface is
rough:
- start sanding with coarse or medium grit
- fi nish with fi ne grit
• Vibration level
The vibration emission level stated at the back of this
instruction manual has been measured in accordance
with a standardised test given in EN 60745; it may be
used to compare one tool with another and as a
preliminary assessment of exposure to vibration when
using the tool for the applications mentioned
- using the tool for different applications, or with
different or poorly maintainted accessories, may
signifi cantly increase the exposure level
- the times when the tool is switched off or when it is
running but not actually doing the job, may
signifi cantly reduce the exposure level
! protect yourself against the effects of vibration by
maintaining the tool and its accessories, keeping
your hands warm, and organizing your work
patterns
MAINTENANCE / SERVICE
• Always keep tool and cord clean (especially the
ventilation slots)
- remove adhering sanding dust with a brush
! disconnect the plug before cleaning
• If the tool should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be
carried out by an after-sales service centre for SKIL
power tools
- send the tool undismantled together with proof of
purchase to your dealer or the nearest SKIL service
station (addresses as well as the service diagram of
the tool are listed on www.skileurope.com)
