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 - Electronic rpm regulation (LE21AEC - LS21AE)
4 - Base plate
5 - Velcroed drilled rubber plate
6 - Paper clamping lever (LE21AC-LE21AEC)
7 - Motor ventilation slots
8 - 29 mm Ø suction port
9 - Dust bag
