TECHNICAL DATA
GENERAL WARNINGS
All instructions concerning safety and the prevention of industrial accidents
can be found in file SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, that forms integral part of this
documentation. This INSTRUCTION MANUAL only contains additional
information that specifically explain how to use the tool.
SPECIFIC USE
This electrical tool is designed to operate as a sander, suitable for dry
sanding of wood, plastic, metal, plaster and painted surfaces. Read all
safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications supplied with
this tool. Failure to respect all instructions indicated below can cause an
electric shock, fire and/or a serious accident.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SANDERS
Do not use accessories that are not specifically designed for the intended
use of the tool or that have not been recommended by the manufacturer.
The fact that an accessory can be fixed to the tool does not imply that it can be
used safely.
The rated speed of accessories must be at least equivalent to the maximum
speed of the tool. If operated at a greater speed than the rated one,
accessories may break and cause the ejection of chips.
The external diameter and thickness of accessories must be appropriate to
guarantee the protection and safety of the tool. Accessories with incorrect
dimensions cannot be adequately protected or controlled.
The conformation of the accessories must be correctly adapted to the
spindle of the tool. The accessories equipped with holes of the shaft that
do not correspond to the assembly components on the tool, will not remain
in balance, they will vibrate excessively and can cause a loss of control.
Do not use a damaged accessory. If the tool or accessory has suffered a fall,
examine any damages or install an accessory that is no damaged. After
examining and installing an accessory, all persons present, must keep a safe
distance from the rotating accessory and operate the tool at maximum empty
speed for one minute. Damaged accessories generally break during this test
period.
Use the electric tool only for dry sanding. The use of water or other liquid
coolants can cause electrocution or an electric shock.
Do not operate the electrical tool in the proximity of flammable material. The
sparks generated by sanding metal material can ignite these materials.
Avoid overheating the material being processed and in sanding.
Before taking a break, always empty the container of dust. Abrasive dust in
the filter holder or in the vacuum filter can catch fire in unfavourable conditions
such as a spark produced during metal sanding. Hazardous dust can be
produced during sanding operations, contact with which or inhalation can pose
a danger for the user’s health and for people nearby. Comply with the valid safety
specifications in the respective countries.
Connect the tool to a device suitable dust extraction. To protect the health
wear masks.
Use clamps to secure the work piece. Under no circumstances should you
hold the work piece with one hand and the electrical tool with the other hand,
while it is being used. By securing the work piece with clamps, you can have
both hands free to better operate the electrical tool.
The values shown are based on a nominal voltage of 230V/50Hz. In the case of voltages and frequencies of different power values may vary.
Refer to the label technical specifications to the nominal values of the tool.
(*) The tool must be connected to a suitable dust extraction system (see DUST EXTRACTION)

DANGER Before any intervention on the electrical tool take the plug out
from the socket
BEFORE STARTING THE TOOL
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;
- the power supply cable and plug are in perfect condition;
- the ON/OFF (2) 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 (6) are not obstructed;
- the tool must be connected to a suitable and efficient aspiration device.
ASSEMBLY/REPLACEMENT OF THE ABRASIVE PAPER
ASSEMBLY:
Press the abrasive paper into the pad (10) ensuring that the holes in the paper
coincide with extraction holes in the pad.
DISASSEMBLY:
- Used abrasive paper can be removed by simply tearing them off;
- new velcro abrasive paper it’s mounted (see “ASSEMBLY”)
SANDING PAD REPLACEMENT
Replace damaged sanding pad immediately. Optimal results are
achieved only using original accessories.The assembly of a sanding
pad with incorrect dimensions can cause excessive vibrations which
are not allowed for the machine.
- Unscrew the screws (7) on the pad;
- reverse the procedure when fitting the pad.
Start the tool and check that there are no unusual vibration, no dismatching
movement of the abrasive disc. Otherwise switch-off the tool immediately and
eliminate the cause.
STARTING AND STOPPING
- Starting: press the switch (2) down in position “ON”.
- Stopping: press the switch (2) up in position “OFF”.
WARNING: after an interruption of the electrical energy, if the
ON/OFF switch is inserted, it is necessary to release the switch (see
Stopped).

INFORMATOIN NOISE / MEAN ACCELERATION VALUE
The tools are suppressed in accordance for the prevention and elimination of radio
disturbances measured in accordance with standard: EN 60745
DANGER The indicate measurements refer to new power tools.
Daily usa causes the noise and vibration values to change.
Displayed emission values are comparative and are to be employed for
a provisional assessment of the operator’s risk exposure during the work period.
Appropriate evaluation of work period must also include tool’s idle and stop
periods. These emission values represent the tool’s main applications.
If the tool is used for other applications, with other accessories, or if it does not
undergo regular maintenance, emission values can significantly increase
during operations.
Use hearing protection!

- To guarantee optimal extraction of the powder empty the conical filter (8) in
time, accurately cleaning the filter holder (8a) and regularly cleaning the
cartridge (8b);
- During works on the vertical surfaces, position the machine so the conical filter
is turned downwards.
-Conical filter assembly: position the conical filter (8) on the extractor tube
coupling (4). Push the conical filter until it stops.
-Conical filter filling testing: the filling status of the conical filter is easily
controlled using the transparent filter holder (8.a).
-Conical filter cleaning: to empty the conical filter, remove it from the extractor
tube coupling working in the opposite direction to assembly;
- Release the cartridge (8.b) and release it from the filter holder;
- Empty the filter holder;
- Clean the cartridge plates with a soft brush.
EXTERNAL EXTRACTION
- During vertical surface works position the machine in such a way the extractor
tube is turned downwards.
-Assembly: insert an extractor tube on the coupling for the extractor tube (4);
- Connect the extractor tube to an adequate vacuum system (not supplied).
