To ensure constant air circulation, always keep
the cooling air openings in the motor housing

9.1
Sanding pad brake
The rubber collar [10-1] on the sanding pad
and the stop ring [10-2] on the machine prevent
uncontrolled excessive turning of the sanding
pad during eccentric motion (fine sanding). As
these parts are subject to wear in the course of
time, they must be replaced when reduced
braking force is observed (for order no., see
spare parts list).
10 Accessories
Only use original Festool sanding and polishing
pads. Low-quality sanding and polishing pads
may cause serious machine imbalance that de
creases the quality of the working results and
increases machine wear.
The PO numbers of the accessories and tools
can be found in the Festool catalogue or online
at "www.festool.co.uk".
