Working Advice
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a com-
u
plete stop before placing it down.
The material removal rate when sanding is primarily determ-
ined by the choice of sanding sheet and the preselected or-
bital stroke rate .
Only immaculate sanding sheets achieve good sanding per-
formance and make the power tool last longer. 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.
Be sure to apply consistent contact pressure in order to in-
crease 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.
Do not use a sanding sheet for other materials after it has
been used to work on metal.
Use only original Bosch-sanding accessories.

After working at a low orbital stoke rate for an extended
period, you should operate the power tool at the maximum
orbital stroke rate for approximately three minutes without
load to cool it down.
