9.6 Use as a stationary tool
If your machine is to be used in a permanent location, it is rec-
ommended you secure it to a workbench.
• To do so, mark the holes to be drilled: Place the sander
where it is to be mounted. Mark the location of the holes to
be drilled on the workbench.
• Drill holes through the workbench.
• Place the sander above the holes and insert suitable screws
from the top through the holes of the sander and the work-
bench.
• Now fasten the sander from the underside of the workbench
using lock washers and matching hexagonal nuts.
9.7 Use as a portable tool
If your belt and disc sander is to be used as a portable tool, it is
recommended you fasten it to a suitable mounting plate which
can easily be clamped to a workbench.
The mounting plate should be at least 19 mm thick and suf-
ficiently larger than the sander to allow space for the clamps.
• Mark the holes to be drilled on the mounting plate.
• Follow the last three steps as described in section "Use as a
stationary tool".
Note: Ensure that the screws are of suitable length. Spax
screws must not protrude so as not to damage the surface,
whereas hexagonal screws must protrude so that washers and
hexagonal nuts can be fitted.
9.8 On/off switch (5) (fig. 13)
• It is possible to switch the sander on by pressing the green
"I" button.
• In order to switch the sander off again, it is necessary to
press the red "0" button.
Warning: Never reach over the device to turn the belt and disc
sander on or off! Danger of injury!
9.9 Sanding
• Always hold the workpiece firmly during sanding.
• Do not apply excessive pressure.
• The workpiece should be moved to and from the sanding
belt (13) or sanding disc (4) as you sand. This prevents the
sanding paper from becoming worn on one side.
• Important! Pieces of wood should always be sanded with the
grain to prevent them splitting. Attention! If the sanding disc
(4) or the sanding belt (13) becomes jammed during opera-
tion, remove the workpiece and wait until the tool reaches its
top speed again.
9.10 Dust extraction connection
The machine is equipped with a suction port (10).
Connect a dust extractor when processing heavily dusty materi-
als.
Attention: The dust extractor must not be connected when pro-
cessing metals.

10. Transport

To transport the power tool, disconnect the equipment from the
power supply and set it up in the new position you want to use
it in.

11. Working instructions

11.1 Bevel sanding (fig. 14)
The worktable can be infinitely adjusted from 0 ° to 45 °.
• To do so, loosen the locking screw (8).
• Set the worktable to the desired angle. Attention: Even when
tilted, never position the worktable further than 1.6 mm from
the sanding disc (4)!
• Tighten the locking screw (8) again.
11.2 Sanding small end surfaces using the trans-
verse stop (fig. 15a, 15b)
The supplied transverse stop (6) makes precise sanding easier.
The use of a transverse stop is recommended for sanding small
end surfaces.
Note:Always move the workpiece from the left to the centre of
the sanding disc, never beyond! Risk of injury due to workpiece
being thrown away!
11.3 Horizontal and vertical sanding
(fig. 9−11, 16)
Your sander can sand both vertically and horizontally. The
worktable can be used for both applications.
• Loosen the Allen screw (12).
• Move the sanding belt (13) upwards into the desired po-
sition.
• Tighten the Allen screw (12) again to fix this position.
• In this position you can use the sanding table (7) to support
the workpiece. To do this, first loosen the two Allen screws
(17) and then remove the stop rail (14). The sanding table
(7) can now be pushed into the hole of the holder tube (20)
and fixed with the locking screw (8).
Note: Sand long workpieces in the vertical position by moving
the workpiece evenly over the sanding belt (13).
11.4 Surface sanding on the sanding belt
(fig. 17)
• Hold the workpiece (W) firmly. Watch your fingers! Danger
of injury!
• Keep the workpiece pressed firmly against the stop rail (14)
guiding it evenly over the sanding belt (13). Attention: Be
particularly careful when sanding very thin pieces and ex-
tra long pieces (perhaps even without stop rail (14)). Ap-
ply only enough pressure to allow the sanding belt (13) to
remove sanded material.
11.5 Sanding inside (concave) curves (fig. 18)
Warning: Never attempt to sand the end pieces of a workpiece
on the idler drum (R). If you do so, the workpiece (W) may be
ejected. Danger of injury!
Always sand concave curves using the idler drum at the sand-
ing belt (13).
• Hold the workpiece firmly. Watch your fingers! Danger of
injury!
• Guide the workpiece evenly over the sanding belt (13).
Attention:Be particularly careful when sanding very thin
pieces and extra long pieces.
