Initial Operation
Always use the correct supply voltage: The voltage
of the power source must agree with the value given
on the nameplate of the machine.
Switching on and off
Switching on: Set ON/OFF switch 1 to “I“.
Switching off: Set ON/OFF switch 1 to “0“.
Dust Extraction
Dust extraction prevents large accumulations of dust, high concentrations
of dust in the ambient air and facilitates disposal.
For long periods of working with wood
or for commercial use on materials
that produce dust that is detrimental
to health, the machine is to be connected to a suitable external dust ex-
traction device.
Note: When working without a dust vacuum, plug 8
must be inserted in vacuum socket 7 .
Paper dust bag
Push dust bag 6 on adapter 5 . Ensure that adapter
engages in provided holder on dust bag. Insert dust
bag with adapter in vacuum socket 7 .
Empty or replace dust bag 6 regularly to ensure optimum dust extraction.
Changing Sanding Sheet
Before fitting new sanding sheets remove any dust
and dirt from sanding plate 2 .
Standard sanding sheets
Press or release securing clip 4 .
Push and lock sanding sheet under the open secur-
ing clip 4 .
Lock other end in the same manner. Ensure that
sanding sheet fits firmly against sanding plate 2 .
The perforation pattern in sanding plate 2 must be
aligned with that of sanding sheet 3 in order to ensure proper dust extraction through the sanding
plate.
Use punching tool 9 to punch holes for dust extraction into unperforated sanding sheets.
Sanding sheets with connecting link
system
(GSS 16 A)
The machine is fitted with a quickchange (connecting link) system, enabling sanding sheets to be changed
easily.
The pressure-sensitive sanding sheets are simply
pressed onto the Velcro-type sanding plate. Finished!
Only use original Bosch sanding sheets with
the pressure-sensitive connecting link.
Tissue dust bag (Accessory)
Push dust bag 10 on adapter 5 . Ensure that adapter
engages in provided holder on dust bag. Insert dust
bag with adapter in vacuum socket 7 .
External dust extraction with vacuum
cleaner
A vacuum adapter must be utilized when a vacuum
cleaner is used for external dust extraction (Accessory).
The appliance can be plugged directly into the
socket of a Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner which
incorporates a remote-control start device. The vacuum cleaner automatically starts when the appliance
is switched on.
Operating Instructions
Sanding
The removal rate is determined mainly by the sanding sheet selected and the controlled contact pressure of the sanding plate.
Move the orbital sander parallel and in circular spots
or alternately in lengthways and crossways directions. Do not apply excessive pressure to the orbital
sander!
An excessive increase in the application pressure
produces no increase in the sanding performance
and causes heavy wear to the machine and the
sanding tool.
Take care to apply uniform application pressure.
This increases the service life of the sanding
sheet.
Only flawless sanding sheet produce good sand-
ing results and protect the machine. Clogged
sanding sheet produce poor sanding results.
