machine!
7.1 Electronics
The machine features full-wave electronics
with the following features:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
ensures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Speed control
You can regulate the speed steplessly with
the adjusting wheel
(see Technical data). This enables you to op-
timise the cutting speed to suit the surface
(see table).
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed remains con-
stant through electronic control to ensure a
uniform cutting speed even when under load.
Temperature cut-out
The machine power supply is limited and the
speed reduced if the motor exceeds a certain
temperature. The machine continues operat-
ing at reduced power to allow the ventilator
to cool the motor quickly. If the machine
temperature exceeds the maximum permit-
ted value for longer periods, the machine
switches off completely after approx. 40 sec-
onds and can only be switched on again once
the motor has cooled sufficiently.
7.2 Setting sanding motion
The change-over switch
set three different sanding motions.
L This change-over can only be carried out
with the sanding pad stationary because
the switch is locked during operation.
Coarse sanding, polishing - ROTEX rota-
ry motion
The Rotex rotary motion is a combi-
nation of rotary and eccentric mo-
tions. This position is selected for
sanding with high output (coarse
sanding) and polishing.

Fine sanding - eccentric motion
This position is selected for sanding
with low output for a scratch-free
surface (fine sanding).
Triangular sanding and pad change
This position is used for sanding
with the delta sanding pad and slat
sanding pad; the rotary motion is
blocked.
You can change the sanding pad in
this position.

Changing sanding/polishing pad

[5]
L Only use sanding and polishing pads that
are suitable for the maximum speed spec-
ified.
Tuned to the surface being processed, the
machine can be equipped with two sanding
pads of different hardnesses.
Hard: Coarse and fine sanding on surfaces.
Sanding edges.
Soft: Universal for coarse and fine sanding,
for flat and convex surfaces.
When the interface pad

soft.

7.4 Changing sanding pad
The delta sanding pad DSS-GE-STF-RO90
can be used for sanding close to borders, in
corners or on edges. The slat sanding pad
LSS-STF-RO90 can be used for sanding in
narrow gaps, e.g. louvres.
Observe the following instructions:
Work in corners and on edges tends to sub-
ject the tip to increased stress and results in
increased heat development. In such cases,
work with reduced contact pressure.

If the front tip of the StickFix pad
your delta sanding pad is worn, take it off
and turn it 120°.
