Safety Instructions
ATTENTION!
When using electric machines always observe the safety regulations applicable in your
country to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Read the following safety
instructions and also the enclosed safety instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place!
1. Keep work area clear.
Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
2. Consider work area environment.
Do not expose power tools to rain. Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep
work area well lit. Do not use power tools in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3. Guard against electric shock.
Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiators, refrigerators).
4. Keep visitors away.
Visitors should be kept away from the work area at all times. Do not let visitors handle the
machine at any time.
5. Store unused tools.

solutions.
While maintaining and cleaning the machine pull the plug from the mainssocket.
Never use water or other agressive liquids to clean the machine. Clean the
machine by brushing it with a brush.
The machines have been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper machine care and
regular cleaning.
5. MAINTENANCE

hot
• The connected machine
does not work.
• The dust is not extracted:
The air vents in the motor are
filled up with dirt.

06 Topcraft
minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm2. When using a cable reel always unwind the reel
completely.
Installing sandpaper
As the sole of your sander is provided with velcro, you can only use sandpaper which can be
fixed in the same way.
• Pull the mains plug out of the power-point
• Have the little gaps in the sandpaper coincide with the little gaps in the sole and push on
the paper for fixing it on the sole.
Applications
The sander can only be used for the subjoined applications.
• Sanding wooden surfaces
• Sanding metal surfaces
• Polishing.
DUST EXTRACTION
The sanding machine is provided with a connection for dust extraction to keep the working
surface clean. This is the opening at the back of the sander. You can connect a vacuum cleaner
onto this opening.
Insert the adapter into the dust extraction opening of the triangular sanding machine. When
doing so, make sure that the adapter projections fall into the recesses of the dust extraction
opening. Turn the adapter 45 degrees clockwise. You may now insert the vacuum cleaner tube
into the adapter. The adapter is equipped with an adapter ring, located in the back of the
adapter. For deviant tube sizes, remove the adapter ring from the adapter.
Press the on/off switch to turn on the machine. To regulate the speed, use the adjusting wheel.
An excessive load when the sanding machine is running at a low speed may cause the motor
to burn out.
SANDING
The foot of the sanding machine makes small circular movements. The result is an even,
smoothly sanded surface without trails. Because of the circular movement, how you hold and
move the sanding machine is of little importance. Additional pressure force on the machine is
rarely necessary.
