a kickback. A kickback accelerates the ma-
chine in the direction of rotation opposed
to the disc at the jamming point.
- Take particular care when working in cor-
ners, on sharp edges, etc. Take care to
prevent the machine from jumping back or
getting caught. Corners, sharp edges or a
jump back tend to cause the rotating tool
to catch, thus leading to a loss of control
or a kickback.
- Never install a chainsaw or saw blades
with teeth to cut wood. Such blades often
cause kickback and loss of control.
Special safety instructions for brush-
ing
- Remember that the brush may scatter
wires in all directions during normal use.
Do not place the brush under excessive
strain and risk breaking the wires. Wires
can easily penetrate thin clothing and
skin.
- If the wire brushes require a protective
cover during use, prevent the wire brush/
disc from making any kind of contact with
the protective cover. The working and cen-
trifugal forces that occur during operation
may increase the diameter of the wire
brushes/discs.

5.3 Emission levels

Levels determined in accordance with EN
60745 are typically:
Sound pressure level
Noise level
Measuring uncertainty allowance K = 4 dB
Measured acceleration

Commissioning

Risk of accident if the machine is ope-
rated using unauthorised voltages or
frequencies.
- The mains voltage and the frequency of
the power source must correspond with
the specifi cations on the machine's name
plate.
- In North America, only Festool machines
with a voltage specifi cation of 120 V/60
Hz may be used.
The tool is fi tted with an on/off switch [1-1]
with switch-on lock [1-2]. Press the switch-
on lock to release the switch. Pressing and
holding the switch-on lock briefl y after the
machine starts locks the switch while the
motor is running. The motor switches off
when you press the on/off switch again.

Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-
up ensures that the machine starts up jolt-
free.
Speed control
You can regulate the rotational speed step-
lessly between 800 and 4000 rpm using the
adjusting wheel [1-4].
The following table serves as a guideline to
help you select the best electronics setting
for the working material. The transition be-
tween each speed setting is smooth.
