Transport; Working Instructions - Parkside PBTS 370 B2 Operating And Safety Instructions Manual

9.4 Moving the sanding position of the sanding
belt (fig. 9−11)
• Loosen the hexagon socket screw (12).
• Move the sanding belt (13) upwards into the desired posi-
tion.
• Retighten the hexagon socket screw (12) to lock in position.
• The grinding table (7) can be inserted in this position to sup-
port the workpiece. To do this, first remove the two hexagon
socket screws (17) and then remove the stop rail (14). The
sanding table (7) can now be pushed into the hole of the
holder tube (20) and fixed with the locking screw (8).
9.5 Replacing the sanding paper on the sanding
disc (fig. 12)
Dismantle the bottom disc guard (15) by removing the 2 screws
(16). Pull the sanding paper off the sanding disc (4) and at-
tach the new sanding paper (quick-fit fastening system). Refit
the lower protective panel (15).
9.6 Use as a stationary machine
If your machine is to be used in a permanent location, it is rec-
ommended you secure it to a workbench.
• Mark the drill holes for this purpose: Place the grinding ma-
chine as it will be installed later. Mark the location of the
holes to be drilled on the workbench.
• Drill holes through the workbench.
• Place the sander above the holes and insert suitable screws
from the top through the holes of the sander and the workbench.
• Now fasten the sander from the underside of the workbench
using lock washers and matching hexagonal nuts.
9.7 Use as a mobile machine
If your belt and disc sander is to be used as a portable tool, it is
recommended you fasten it to a suitable mounting plate which
can easily be clamped to a workbench.
The mounting plate should be at least 19 mm thick and suf-
ficiently larger than the sander to allow space for the clamps.
• Mark the holes to be drilled on the mounting plate.
• Follow the last three steps as described in section "Use as a
stationary tool".
Note:
Ensure that the screws are of suitable length. Spax screws must
not protrude so as not to damage the surface, whereas hex-
agonal screws must protrude so that washers and hexagonal
nuts can be fitted.
9.8 On/Off switch (5) (Fig. 13)
• It is possible to switch the sander on by pressing the green
"I" button.
• In order to switch the sander off again, it is necessary to
press the red "0" button.
Warning:
Never reach over the device to turn the belt and disc sander on
or off! Risk of injury!
9.9 Grinding
• Always hold the workpiece firmly during sanding.
• Do not apply excessive pressure.
• The workpiece should be moved back and forth on the grind-
ing belt (13) or the grinding wheel (4) when grinding. This
prevents the sanding paper from becoming worn on one
side.
• Important! Pieces of wood should always be sanded with
the grain to prevent them splitting. Attention! If the grind-
ing wheel (4) or the grinding belt (13) jam while you are
working, remove your workpiece. Then wait until the device
has reached its maximum speed again before you continue
working.
9.10 Dust extraction connection
The machine is equipped with a suction port (10).
Connect a dust extractor when processing heavily dusty materi-
als.
Attention: The dust extraction must not be connected when pro-
cessing metals.

10. Transport

To transport the power tool, disconnect the equipment from the
power supply and set it up in the new position you want to use
it in.
Lift the device only by the transport handle (22) and the ma-
chine foot for transport.
Attention! Do not transport the device by the grinding belt hold-
er (21), grinding wheel (4), grinding table (7) or other moving
parts of the device.

11. Working instructions

11.1 Grinding chamfers and edges (Fig. 14)
The worktable can be infinitely adjusted from 0 ° to 45 °.
• To do so, loosen the locking screw (8).
• Set the worktable to the desired angle. Attention: The workta-
ble should never be more than 2 mm from the grinding wheel
(4), even when tilted!
• Tighten the locking screw (8) again.
11.2 Sanding small end surfaces using the trans-
verse stop (fig. 15a, 15b)
The supplied transverse stop (6) makes precise sanding easier.
The transverse stop (6) can be used to set grinding angles in
addition to the inclination of the grinding table (7). We recom-
mend its use when grinding (short) faces.
Note:
Always move the workpiece from the left to the centre of the
sanding disc, never beyond! Risk of injury due to workpiece
being thrown away!
11.3 Horizontal and vertical sanding (fig. 9−11,
16)
Your sander can sand both vertically and horizontally. The
worktable can be used for both applications.
• Loosen the hexagon socket screw (12).
• Move the sanding belt (13) upwards into the desired posi-
tion.
