[. . . ] Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. 1) Work area safety a) Keep work area clean and well lit. [. . . ] Dust from light alloys can burn or explode. Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug when the cable is damaged while working. Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. 1 Thumbwheel for orbit frequency preselection (PEX 270 AE) 2 On/Off switch 3 Lock-on button for On/Off switch 4 Dust box, complete (micro filtersystem) 5 Sanding plate 6 Sanding sheet* 7 Extraction outlet 8 Holder for dust box 9 Latching lever for dust box 10 Filter element (micro filtersystem) 11 Sanding-plate base 12 Screws for sanding plate 13 Extraction adapter* The machine is intended for dry sanding of wood, plastic, metal, filler as well as coated surfaces. Machines with electronic control are also suitable for polishing.

For lower voltage and models for specific countries, these values can vary. Please observe the article number on the type plate of your machine. The trade names of the individual machines may vary. Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are: Sound pressure level 83 dB(A); Sound power level 94 dB(A). The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. the declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns. We declare under our sole responsibility that the product described under "Technical Data" is in conformity with the following standards or standardization documents: EN 60745 according to the provisions of the directives 2004/108/EC, 98/37/EC (until Dec. Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug. [. . . ] Sanding Surfaces Switch the machine on, place it with the complete sanding surface on the surface to be worked and move the machine with moderate pressure over the workpiece. the removal capacity and the sanding pattern are mainly determined by the selection of the sanding sheet , the preselected orbital stroke rate (PEX 270 AE) and the applied pressure. Select a low stroke rate (setting 1­2) for polishing in order to avoid excessive heating of the surface. Apply polishing agent crosswise or in a circular motion with a polishing sponge and moderate pressure, and then allow it to dry lightly. [. . . ]
