User manual FESTOOL RO 150 FE

[. . . ] They are also used for making preliminary estimates regarding vibration and noise loads during operation. The emission values specified refer to the main applications for which the power tool is used. If the electric power tool is used for other applications, with other tools or is not maintained sufficiently prior to operation, however, the vibration and noise load may be higher when the tool is used. Take into account any machine idling times and downtimes to estimate these values more accurately for a specified time period. [. . . ] The self-adhesive sanding material is simply pressed onto the sanding base (1. Speed adjustment You can regulate the speed steplessly between 3300 and 6800 rpm using the adjusting wheel (1. Constant speed The pre-selected speed remains constant whether the machine is in operation or in neutral position. Temperature control If the motor temperature becomes too high, the power supply and speed are reduced. The tool then only runs with reduced power to enable rapid cooling by means of the motor ventilation. 5 Machine settings Always remove the power supply plug from the socket before carrying out any work on the machine. The change can only be made when the sanding pad is stationary, as the switch is locked in place during operation for reasons of safety. rotex rotary motion (coarse sanding , polishing) The Rotex rotary motion is a combination of rotary and eccentric motions. This position is selected for sanding with high output (coarse sanding) and polishing. 5 Securing polishing attachments To prevent damage, PoliStick polishing attachments (sponges, felt, lambswool bonnets) may only be used on the special polishing pad that is fitted on the machine instead of a sanding pad. In the same way as the StickFix abrasives, the PoliStick polishing attachments are simply pressed onto the polishing pad and pulled off after use. Dust extraction Always connect the machine to a dust extractor when performing work that generates dust. You can connect a Festool extractor with an extractor hose diameter of 27 mm to the extractor connector (1. When sanding along a wall), thereby preventing the machine from rebounding. 6 Working with the machine Always secure the workpiece in such a manner that it cannot move while being sawed. For safe guidance, hold the machine with both hands on the motor housing (1. The best sanding results are achieved when applying moderate pressure. 1 Metalworking The following precautions are to be taken when processing metals for safety reasons: - Pre-connect a residual current circuit-breaker (FI, PRCD). [. . . ] Damage caused by, in particular, natural wear, overloading, incorrect handling, or damage caused by the operator, or damage caused through use of the equipment contrary that specified in the Operating Instructions, or damage which was known at the time of purchase, is not covered by the warranty. Keep the Operating Instructions, Safety Instructions, Spare Parts List and purchase receipt in a safe place. Otherwise the respective, current warranty conditions of the manufacturer shall apply.
