en ENGLISH Handle bar The handle bar (9) must be fitted as far as the limit stop on the gearbox flange. After releasing the clamping lever (10), the handle bar (9) can be turned to the desired position. Firmly tighten the clamping lever (10) again. The position of the lever might need to be changed for this purpose. The position of the lever can be changed without turning the clamping screw. For this purpose, raise the lever, turn it and then lower the lever again (see illustration, page 2). When working, always position the lever in a way that it cannot come into contact with the tool. Tensioning spindle Screw the tensioning spindle (10) onto the spindle (4) while holding in the spindle locking knob (2) and tighten with an open-ended spanner (12). 5.1 For mains powered machines only Mains connection Before plugging in the device, check that the rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as specified on the rating label, match your power supply. The red electronics signal indicator (7) lights up briefly when the mains plug is inserted in the socket, indicating readiness for operation. Setting speed The speed can be preset via the setting wheel (14) and is infinitely variable. Positions 1-6 correspond approximately to the following no-load speeds: 1 ........ 900 rpm 2 ........ 1250 rpm 3 ........ 1660 rpm 4....... 2050 rpm 5....... 2410 rpm 6....... 2810 rpm The VTC electronics make material-compatible work possible and an almost constant speed, even under load. The best way to determine the ideal speed setting is by performing a test. 5.2 For cordless machines only Dust filter Always fit the dust filter if the surroundings are heavily polluted (1). The machine heats up faster when the dust filter is fitted (1). It is protected by the elec- tronics system from overheating (see chapter9.). Attaching: See page 2, illustration A. Attach dust filter (1) as shown. To remove: Holding the dust filter (1) by the upper edges, raise it slightly and then pull it downwards and remove. Rotating battery pack See illustration B on page 2. The rear section of the machine can be rotated 270° 8 in three stages, thus allowing the machine's shape to be adapted to the working conditions. Only operate the machine when it is in an engaged position. Battery pack Charge the battery pack before use (6). If performance diminishes, recharge the battery pack. The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and 30°C. "Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity and signal indicator: (5) - Press the button (4), the LEDs indicate the charge level. - If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost flat and must be recharged. Removing and inserting the battery pack To remove: Press the battery pack release button (3) and pull the battery pack (6) downwards. To fit:Slide in the battery pack (6) until it engages. 6. Switching ON and OFF Always guide the machine with both hands. Switch on first, then guide the accessory towards the workpiece. The machine must not be allowed to draw in additional dust and shavings. When switching the machine on and off, keep it away from dust deposits. After switching off the machine, only place it down when the motor has come to a standstill. In continuous operation, the machine continues running if it is forced out of your hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with both hands using the handles provided, stand in a safe position and concentrate. Switching on: Push the slide switch (7) forward. For continuous activation, now tilt downwards until it engages. Switching off: Press the rear end of the slide switch (7) and release. 7. Installing the tools Press in the spindle locking knob (8) only when the spindle is stationary! Tools with threaded insert: 1. Remove the tensioning spindle (16) if necessary. Press in spindle locking button (8) and hold in place. Unscrew the tensioning spindle using the open-ended spanner (17). 2. Press in spindle locking button and hold in place. 3. Screw the tool onto the spindle and tighten. Tools for tensioning spindle: - Attach the tensioning spindle (16) if necessary. Press in spindle locking button (8) and hold in place. Tighten the tensioning spindle using the open-ended spanner (17). - Slide the tool onto the tensioning spindle.
