Appliance-specific safety instructions
WARNING! TOXIC DUSTS!
► Working with the tool can produce harmful/
toxic dusts which represent a health hazard
for the person operating the appliance and
for anyone else in the vicinity.
■ Avoid sanding lead paint or other harmful
materials.
■ Materials containing asbestos must not be
processed. Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
Wear safety goggles and a protective dust
mask!
■ Secure the workpiece. A workpiece securely
held by a clamping device or vice is much safer
than one held in your hand.
■ Do not rest your hands next to or in front of
the tool or the area being worked as there is
a risk of injury if you slip.
■
Always route the power cord towards the
rear, away from the tool.
■ Ensure that nobody can be endangered by
flying sparks. Remove all flammable material
from the vicinity. Sanding metal creates flying
sparks.
■
CAUTION! RISK OF FIRE! Avoid overheating
the material being sanded as well as the
grinder. Always empty the dust collector
before taking work breaks. Grinding dust in
the dust sack, microfilter, paper sack (or in
the filter sack or filter of the vacuum cleaner)
can ignite under unfavourable conditions, for
example, due to flying sparks when sanding
metals. This is a particular risk if the dust is
mixed with paint or polyurethane residues or
other chemicals and the workpiece has become
hot after being worked for a long time.
■ When working for extended periods of time on
wood and, in particular, materials that produce
dust that is hazardous to health, connect the
tool to an appropriate external dust extraction
tool. Wear safety goggles and a protective
dust mask!
■ Ensure sufficient ventilation when working
on plastics, paints, lacquers, etc.
PEXS 270 C3
■ Use the tool only for dry sanding. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
■ Switch the tool on before applying it to the
workpiece. After completing the task, lift the
tool from the workpiece and then switch it off.
■ Always allow the tool to come to a complete
standstill before putting it down.
■
The tool must always be kept clean, dry and
free from oil or grease.
■ Keep your work area clean. Mixtures of
materials can be particularly dangerous.
Light metal dust can burn or explode.

Original accessories/attachments

■ Use only the additional equipment and acces-
sories specified in the operating instructions.
Using attachments or accessory tools other than
those recommended in the operating instruc-
tions can lead to a risk of injury.

Before use

Selecting a sanding sheet

Removal and surface
The material removal rate and surface quality are
determined by the grain strength of the sanding
sheet.
■ Please note that you need to use sandpapers
with different grains for working different
materials.

Changing sanding sheets

The random orbital sander has a Velcro sheet that
enables fast and simple changing of the sanding
sheets.
NOTE
► Before fitting a new sanding sheet 4, remove
any dust and dirt from the sanding pad 3.
