The diamond-shaped tip (13) can be reversed and replaced

When the whole tip is worn, remove it from the sanding
base and fit a new tip.
Tip of the sanding base (fig. F)
When the sanding base tip (14) or tip holder (15) is worn,
it can be reversed or replaced. Spare parts are available from
your Black & Decker dealer.
Remove the screw (16).
Reverse or replace the worn part.
Fit and tighten the screw.
Louvre attachment (fig. J)
With this attachment you can work in crevices and use
the sanding base on both sides.
Remove the tip of the sanding base and the tip holder (fig. F).
Fit the louvre base (22) over the tip of the pointed base.
Secure the louvre base with the screw (21).
Stick the main abrasive sheet to the underside of the
louvre base. Part of it will stick to the front part of the
pointed base.
For sanding down louvre slats on both sides, abrasive paper
can be fitted to the upperside of the attachment.
Remove the backing paper (20) from the velcro fastener (19).
Stick the velcro fastener to the top surface of the louvre
attachment.
Fit the sanding piece (18) to the velcro fastener.
Use
Warning! Do not cover the ventilation slots when using the
tool. Hold the tool as shown in fig. I. Make sure that the
sanding base is flat on the workpiece.
Switching on and off
If the tool has a variable speed control knob (2), set it to
the required speed range. As a general rule, use a low
speed for polishing and for sanding plastics. Use a high
speed for wood and metal.
To switch the tool on, press the part of the on/off switch (1)
marked 'I'.
To switch the tool off, press the part of the on/off switch (1)
marked '0'.
Automatic brake system (ABS)
This tool has an automatic brake system. When the tool is not
on the work surface, this feature keeps the speed of the round
base below the speed of the motor. When the tool is switched
off, the base will stop very quickly.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner
In order to connect a vacuum cleaner to the tool, you need a
special adaptor, which is available as an accessory.
Emptying the dustbag (fig. G)
The dustbag should be emptied every 10 minutes of use.
Hold the tool with the dustbag (5) pointing down.
Squeeze the buttons (17) to release the dustbag.
Refit the dustbag, letting it click into place.
Do not wash the dustbag.

The performance of your tool depends on the accessory used.

high quality standards and designed to enhance the
performance of your tool. By using these accessories you will
