Press the application tool in the required position firmly onto
the clamping jaws of the tool holder until it locks automatic-
ally.
Check that the application tool is seated securely. Ap-
u
plication tools that are attached incorrectly or are not se-
curely fixed in place may come loose during operation,
thereby putting you at risk.
Selecting a sanding sheet
Different sanding sheets are available, depending on the material you are working with and the required surface removal rate:
Sanding sheet Material
– All wood and wood-based
materials (e.g. hardwood,
softwood, chipboard, con-
struction boards)
– Metal materials
– Paint
– Varnish
– Filler
– Bodyfiller
Attaching/changing the sanding sheet on the sanding
plate
The sanding plate (14) is fitted with a hook-and-loop fasten-
ing, allowing sanding sheets with a hook-and-loop backing to
be secured quickly and easily.
Tap the hook-and-loop fastening of the sanding plate (14)
before fitting the sanding sheet (15) to facilitate maximum
adhesion.
Position the sanding sheet (15) so that it is flush with one
side of the sanding plate (14), then place the sanding sheet
on the sanding plate and press it on firmly.
To ensure optimum dust extraction, make sure that the
punched holes in the sanding sheet are aligned with the
drilled holes in the sanding plate.
To remove the sanding sheet (15), take hold of it by an edge
and pull it away from the sanding plate (14).
You can use all sanding sheets, polishing and cleaning
fleeces from the Delta 93 mm series in the Bosch range of
accessories.
Sanding accessories such as fleece/polishing felt are at-
tached to the sanding plate in the same way.

Mounting and adjusting the depth stop
The depth stop (11) can be used when working with seg-
ment and plunge cut saw blades.
Remove the application tool if one has already been fitted.
Slide the depth stop (11) into the required working position
over the tool holder (8) and onto the collar of the power tool
as far as it will go. Allow the depth stop to engage. Twelve
positions offset by 30° are possible for this.
Set the depth you wish to work at. Push the clamping lever
(10) of the depth stop shut to fix the depth stop in position.
Application
For pre-sanding, e.g. of rough and uneven beams and
boards
For surface sanding and levelling of slight irregularities
For finish-sanding and fine sanding of wood
For sanding down paint
For sanding undercoats (e.g. removing brushstrokes,
paint drips and paint runs)
For final sanding of primers prior to painting
Dust/Chip Extraction
The dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of
wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to human health.
Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reac-
tions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in
people in the near vicinity.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as
carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the ma-
terial wherever possible.
– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in
the country of use must be observed.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
