Installing or removing application tool
Optional accessory
WARNING:
Do not install application tool
upside down. Installing application tool upside down
may damage the tool and cause serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Install attachment tool in the cor-
rect direction according to your work. Application
tool can be installed at an angle of every 30 degree.
WARNING:
Always install the application tool so
that the protrusions of the tool flange fit in the holes
on the application tool. Failure to do so may cause the
application tool flown off and result in personal injury.
WARNING:
When installing the application
tool, be sure to tighten the application tool instal-
lation bolt securely.
Put an application tool (optional accessory) on the tool
flange so that the protrusions of the tool flange fit in the
holes in the application tool and secure the application
tool by tightening the bolt firmly with the hex wrench.
When using sanding application tool, mount the appli-
cation tool on the sanding pad so that it matches the
sanding pad direction.
The sanding pad has a hook and loop type fitting sys-
tem which allows easy and rapid fitting of a sanding
paper.
As sanding papers have holes for dust extraction,
mount a sanding paper so that the holes in a sanding
paper match those in the sanding pad.
To remove a sanding paper, raise its end and peel it off.
Loosen and remove the application tool installation bolt
using a hex wrench and then take off the application
tool.
