SAFETY WARNINGS APPLICABLE TO POLISHING
OPERATIONS
If the use of an electrical tool in a damp area cannot be
avoided, use a power supply fitted with a differential switch
(RCD).
This type of switch reduces the risk of electrical shocks.
PARTS OF THE TOOL
1 - Identification plate
2 - ON/OFF switch
3 - Speed control
4 - 29 mm Ø suction port
5 - Velcro faced pad
6 - Disc pad fixing screws
7 - Backing plate Allen wrench
8 - Motor ventilation slots
9 - Dust bag
STARTING UP
Before starting-up the tool, ensure that:
- the packaging is complete and does not show signs of having
been damaged during storage or transport;
-the tool is complete; check that the number and type of
components comply with that reported in this instruction
booklet;
-the power supply and socket outlet can support the load
reported in the table and that indicated on the tool identification
plate reproduced and explained on page 11.
ASSEMBLING THE TOOL
Fit the dust bag (9) if necessary.
MOUNTING THE PAD
1.Place the backing plate (5) with the screw in the centre (6) (fig. 1);
2.slightly turn the backing plate (5) until it is fixed to the screw as
in (fig 2);
3.tighten the screw using the supplied wrench (7) (fig. 3).
Do not tighten the backing plate screw if it is in the wrong
position (fig. 4);
4.to remove, follow the same procedure in reverse order.
FITTING ABRASIVE PAPER DISCS
Press the abrasive paper disc into the pad ensuring that the holes
in the paper coincide with extraction holes in the pad.
BEFORE STARTING THE TOOL
Ensure that:
- the power supply conforms with the characteristics of the tool;
- the power supply cable and plug are in perfect condition;
-the ON/OFF switch works properly though with the power
supply disconnected;
- all the parts of the tool have been assembled in the proper
manner and that there are no signs of damage;
- the ventilation slots are not obstructed (8);
- the tool must be connected to a suitable and efficient dust
extraction system (4);
- the dust bag (9) is enipty and not torn.
STARTING AND STOPPING
- Starting
: push the slide of the switch (2) forward; if the tool is to
be locked in the ON position, apply pressure to the front part of
the slide switch at the same time.
-Stopping: release the slide or, if locked in position, apply
pressure to the back part of the switch and allow it to return to
the stop position.
TEST RUN
Start the tool and check that there are no unusual vibration, no
dismatching of the abrasive paper disc.
Otherwise switch-off the tool immediately and eliminate the
cause.
ELECTRONIC RPM REGULATION
The rpm can be adjusted by rotating the wheel (3) located on the
top of the tool. The choice of speed depends on the characteri-
stics of the abrasive paper disc and the material to be worked.
