Working Advice
English
Remove the battery from the power tool be-
u
fore carrying out work on the power tool (e.g.
maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The bat-
tery should also be removed for transport and
storage. There is risk of injury from unintention-
ally pressing the on/off switch.
Always wait until the power tool has come to
u
a complete stop before placing it down.
This power tool is not suitable for bench-
u
mounted use. It must not be clamped into a
vice or fastened to a workbench, for example.
For fatigue-free work, you can hold the power tool
from above, from the side or from the front, de-
pending on the application (see figure H).
Sanding Surfaces
English
Switch the power tool on, place the entire sanding
surface against the surface of the workpiece and
apply moderate pressure as you move the sander
over the workpiece.
The material removal rate and sanding result are
primarily determined by the choice of sanding
sheet, the preselected orbital stroke rate level and
the contact pressure.
Only immaculate sanding sheets achieve good
sanding performance and make the power tool
last longer.
Be sure to apply consistent contact pressure in or-
der to increase the lifetime of the sanding sheets.
Excessively increasing the contact pressure will
not lead to increased sanding performance, rather
it will cause more severe wear of the power tool
and of the sanding sheet.
Use only original Berner-sanding accessories.
Rough Sanding
English
Attach a coarse grit sanding sheet.
Apply only light pressure to the power tool so that
it runs at a higher orbital stroke rate and a higher
material removal rate is achieved.
Fine Sanding
English
Attach a fine grit sanding sheet.
You can reduce the sanding plate orbital stroke
rate by lightly varying the contact pressure or
changing the orbital stroke rate level; the random
orbit motion will be retained.
Move the power tool with moderate pressure flat
on the workpiece in a circular motion or altern-
ately along and across it. Do not tilt the power tool
in order to avoid sanding through the workpiece,
e.g. veneers.
Switch the power tool off after completing opera-
tion.

Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Remove the battery from the power tool be-
u
fore carrying out work on the power tool (e.g.
maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The bat-
tery should also be removed for transport and
storage. There is risk of injury from unintention-
ally pressing the on/off switch.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, al-
u
ways keep the power tool and the ventilation
slots clean.
Transport
English
The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject to
the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.
The batteries are suitable for road-transport by the
user without further restrictions.
When shipping by third parties (e.g.: by air trans-
port or forwarding agency), special requirements
on packaging and labelling must be observed. For
preparation of the item being shipped, consulting
an expert for hazardous material is required.
Dispatch battery packs only when the housing is
undamaged. Tape or mask off open contacts and
pack up the battery in such a manner that it can-
not move around in the packaging. Please also
observe the possibility of more detailed national
regulations.
Disposal
English
Power tools, rechargeable batteries,
accessories and packaging should be
sorted for environmental-friendly recyc-
ling.
Do not dispose of power tools and bat-
teries/rechargeable batteries into
household waste!
Only for EU countries:
English
According to the Directive 2012/19/EU, power
tools that are no longer usable, and according to
the Directive 2006/66/EC, defective or used bat-
tery packs/batteries, must be collected separately
and disposed of in an environmentally correct
manner.
Only for United Kingdom:
According to Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Regulations 2013 (2013/3113) and the
Waste Batteries and Accumulators Regulations
2009 (2009/890), power tools that are no longer
usable must be collected separately and disposed
of in an environmentally friendly manner.
