• The sander has an rotatable (R, Fig. 7) head cover section
that makes it possible to reduce the distance at the side
between the wall/ceiling and the sanding plate (Fig. 7).
• When the machine is working without the head cover
section, the vacuum cleaner loses effectiveness, so it
should only be opened, when necessary and should be
refitted as soon as possible.
• To take off the cover section in the shape of the
half moon:
• Unplug the machine.
• To open,press the door straight down until it clicks,
and it will then be free to flip up under its spring tension.
• Closing is the opposite of opening.
The edge of the dust skirt is also rotatable to position
the opening to any desired angle.
Recommendations:
Ensure you use the best disc for the sanding to be done.
If the abrasive discs are too coarse-grained they remove a
lot of material as they work; this is sometimes too much
and makes it difficult to control, while those that are
too fine-grained tend to get easily muffled.
Try to avoid sharp points and nails when sanding, as these
can damage the abrasive disc and even the sponge plate.
Always ensure that the work surface
is fully dried before sanding. A wet or
semi-wet surface will overload the motor,
leading to damage to the tool.
14. OVERLOAD AND THERMAL PROTECTION
This tool will indicate that the maximum recommended
load has been reached by slowing its rotation speed. If
the operator continues to push the machine harder, it will
stop. When the tool overheats, it will also automatically
stop. See "Error Codes" below for more information.
Whenever the tool overloads or overheats,
always run at no load for a few minutes
to allow it to cool before continuing work.
ERROR CODES
E - 1 Current overload
Press the Motor Switch(D, Fig. 1) once to clear the error,
then press the Motor Switch once more to restart the tool.
E - 2 Overheat (controller >80°C)
When the temperature drops to below 60°C, Press the
Motor Switch (D, Fig. 1) once to clear the error, then
press the Motor Switch once more to restart the tool.
E - 3 Low voltage:
110V-120V input below 80V or
220V-240V input below 180V
When voltage returns to normal, Press the Motor Switch
(D, Fig. 1) once to clear the error, then press the Motor
18
Switch once more to restart the tool.
E - 4 High voltage:
110V-120V input higher than 130V or
220V-240V input higher than 260V
When voltage returns to normal, Press the Motor Switch
(D, Fig. 1) once to clear the error, then press the Motor
Switch once more to restart the tool.
E - 2 - 5 Motor blocked
Ensure that the motor is free to turn, then press the
Motor Switch (D, Fig. 1) once to clear the error, then
press the Motor Switch once more to restart the tool.
E - 2 - 6 Motor cannot restart after 4 tries Press the
Motor Switch (D, Fig. 1) once to clear the error, then
press the Motor Switch once more to restart the tool If
problem persists, bring to service center for checking.
E - 9 - 1 Loss of communication between the switch
panel unit and the drive electronics board during
operation.
Drive electronics board automatically clears the signal:
Press the Motor Switch once to clear the error, then
press the Motor Switch once more to restart the tool
If problem persists, bring to service center for checking.
15. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Turn the machine off at the mains before performing
any operation.
• All maintenance work or repairs on the machine that
require the motor casing to be opened can only be carried
out by an authorised official service centre.
• Regularly check the state of the lead and the plug, and
change them if they are damaged using an authorised
official service.
• Always keep the air circulation windows on the casing
clean to ensure motor cooling.
• Clean the dust collector tube connection with the
plate cover so that it is not obstructed.
• Periodically blow out all air passages with dry com-
pressed air.
• All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp
cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts.
Wear safety glasses while using com-
pressed air.
