XFE 7-15 125 / XFE 7-15 150 / XCE 10-8 125
To set the operating speed, move the dial

to the required value.
Gently press the switch (5) to accelerate

the power tool up to the preselected speed.
NOTE
If an overload or overheating occurs during
continues operation, the power tool auto-
matically reduces the speed until the power
tool has cooled down adequately.
Work instructions
CAUTION!
When the polisher is switched off,
the polishing tool continues running briefly.
NOTE
Following a tool change (e.g. wool pad
instead of polishing sponge), the difference
in weight may increase the vibrations.
Change the operating speed with the
adjusting wheel (4) until the vibrations have
been reduced.
– Switch on the machine before placing it
on the surface which is to be polished
and run the polisher up to the set speed.
– Applying light contact pressure, move the
polisher in circular, overlapping
movements on the surface which is to
be polished in order to obtain a good
polishing finish and to ensure that the tool
has a long service life.
– On sensitive surfaces (e.g. car paint-
work) do not work aggressively but work
at slow speeds applying low contact
pressure.
– If using a polishing paste, use the
respective tool for each paste.

Maintenance and care

WARNING!
Before carrying out any work on the
polisher, always pull out the mains plug.
Cleaning
Regularly clean the power tool and

ventilation slots. Frequency of cleaning is
dependent on the material and duration
of use.
Regularly blow out the housing interior

and motor with dry compressed air.
Carbon brushes
The polisher features cut-off carbon
brushes.
When the wear limit of the cut-off carbon
brushes is reached, the polisher switches
off automatically.
NOTE
Use only original parts supplied by the
manufacturer for replacement purposes.
If non-original parts are used, the guarantee
obligations of the manufacturer will be
deemed null and void.
When the polisher is being used, the carbon
brushes can be seen sparking through the
rear air inlet apertures.
If the carbon brushes spark excessively,
switch off the polisher immediately.
Take the polisher to a customer service
workshop authorised by the manufacturer.
Gears
NOTE
Do not loosen the screws on the gear head
during the warranty period.
Non-compliance will deem the guarantee
obligations of the manufacturer null and
void.
