Polisher XC 3401 VRG
Do not clamp the polisher in a vice.
Clamp the workpiece if it is not securely
positioned by its own weight.
Before using the polisher, always check
the power cord (8) and polisher for
damage. Do not start a damaged
polisher.
Always lay the power cord (8) to the rear
away from the polisher.
Use only tools which have a permitted
speed at least as high as the nominal
speed of the polisher.
Use only original polishing materials
supplied by the manufacturer. If other
polishing materials are used, the weight
differences may increase the vibrations
of the polisher.
Before using the machine, check that
the installed tools have been secured
according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
Before using the polisher, check that the
polishing tools have been installed and
attached correctly. Switch on the
machine at no load for 30 seconds!
Interrupt the test run immediately if
violent vibrations occur or other damage
is established. Check the machine to
determine the cause.
As the polisher vibrates, breaks should
be taken after working for some time.
Keep hands away from rotating parts.
Do not load the polisher to such an
extent that it stops.
If polishing in one place at a high contact
pressure, the work surface will heat up.
Risk of burns! Risk of damaging
sensitive surfaces.
Do not apply high contact pressure if the
Velcro pad (11) is at an angle, otherwise
the Velcro pad will bend and be
damaged.
If polishing plastic surfaces, these will
become electrostatically charged.
Caution, flashover may occur.
Protect people and objects from ejected
remnants of the polishing and abrading
materials.
Before putting the polisher down,
switch it off and wait until it stops.
If polishers are used outdoors or are
exposed to extreme metal dusts,
connect via a residual-current-operated
circuit-breaker (tripping current
maximum 30 mA).
Use only extension cables permitted
for outdoor use.
Identify the polisher with stickers only.
Do not drill any holes into the housing.
Damage to property!
The mains voltage and the voltage
specifications on the rating plate (5)
must correspond.
Do not press the spindle lock (3) until
the tool stops.
