Do not switch the power tool on while
the clamping lever is open. Otherwise there
is danger of crushes or contusions to the hand and
fingers.
Do not reach into the area of the clamp-
ing jaws. Otherwise there is danger of crushes
or contusions to the fingers.
Additional operating instructions.
Do not actuate the clamping lever while
the power tool is running. Otherwise there
is danger of injury.
Do not operate the power tool with with
open clamping jaws and without an
application tool! This could damage the
power tool.
When the clamping jaws are open
before the application tool is inserted,
pivot the clamping lever toward the
front and then back again. The clamping
jaws are closed now. The application tool can be
inserted.
Do not overload the power tool. Over-
loading increases the vibration on the power-tool
housing and can cause the power tool to become
very hot. Danger of injury.
Guide the power tool toward the work piece only
when switched on.
The application tool can be offset in 30° steps and fas-
tened in the most favourable working position.
Notes on sanding.
Press the power tool with the sanding sheet briefly and
firmly against a flat surface and briefly switch the
power tool on. This provides for good adhesion and
prevents premature wear.
When only one tip or corner of the sanding sheet is
worn, it can be removed again and reattached turned
by 120°.
Work with the entire surface of the sanding plate, not
only with the tip.
When sanding with small triangle sanding plates,
select a high oscillating frequency (electronics
level 4 – 6); when sanding with the round sanding
plate and the large triangle sanding plate, select a
moderate oscillating frequency (max. electronics
level 4).
Sand with continuous motion applying moderate pres-
sure. Applying excessive pressure does not increase
the rate of removal, it only wears off the sanding sheet
faster.
Notes on sawing.
Select a high oscillating frequency. Round saw blades
can be released and clamped offset again, to allow for
uniform wearing off.
For very high application force, the speed is automati-
cally lowered to a complete stop and increased again
when released.
Notes on scraping.
Select a moderate to high oscillating frequency.
Dust Extraction
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful
to one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can
cause allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory
infections of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are consid-
ered as carcinogenic, especially in connection with
wood-treatment additives (chromate, wood preserva-
tive). Materials containing asbestos may only be
worked on by specialists.
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system suita-
ble for the material.
• Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
• It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respira-
tor.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials being worked on.
Maintenance and Cleaning
When working metal under extreme operat-
ing conditions, it is possible for conductive
dust to settle in the interior of the power tool. The total
insulation of the power tool can be impaired. Blow out
the interior of the power tool via the ventilation slots fre-
quently with dry and oil-free compressed air, and con-
nect a residual current device (RCD) on the line side.
When the power tools's power cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by a qualified person using a spe-
cially prepaired power cable, available from your
Würth customer service agent.
If required, you can change the following
parts yourself:
