Changing the Sanding Sheet (see figure A)

To remove the sanding sheet 

(10)

, lift it from the side and

pull it from the sanding pad 

(8)

.

Remove dirt and dust from the sanding pad 

(8)

, e.g. with a

paintbrush, before attaching a new sanding sheet.
The surface of the sanding pad 

(8)

 is fitted with a hook-and-

loop fastening, allowing sanding sheets with a hook-and-loop
backing to be secured quickly and easily.
Press the sanding sheet 

(10)

 firmly onto the underside of

the sanding pad 

(8)

.

To ensure optimum dust extraction, make sure that the
punched holes in the sanding sheet 

(10)

 are aligned with the

drilled holes in the sanding pad 

(8)

.

To increase the sanding pad's service life, in particular when
using net abrasives (e.g. Bosch M480), apply the Pad Saver
(accessory) between the sanding pad and abrasive.

Selection of the Sanding Plate

The power tool can be fitted with sanding discs of various
hardnesses, depending on the application:
– Soft sanding disc: Suitable for sensitive sanding even on

curved surfaces

– Medium-hard sanding disc: Suitable for all sanding work,

universal application

– Hard sanding disc: Suitable for heavy sanding on flat sur-

faces

Changing the sanding pad (see figure B)

Note: 

Replace damaged sanding pads 

(8)

 immediately.

Pull off the sanding sheet. Unscrew the 4 screws 

(11)

 com-

pletely (using a T20 screwdriver) and remove the sanding
pad 

(8)

. Attach the new sanding pad 

(8)

 and retighten the

screws.

Note: 

When attaching the sanding pad, make sure that the

teeth of the catch mate with the recesses in the sanding pad.

Note:

 Damaged sanding disc holders 

(12)

 must only be re-

placed by an after-sales service centre authorised to work
with Bosch power tools.

Dust/Chip Extraction

The dust from materials such as lead paint, certain types of
wood and minerals can be harmful to human health. Touch-
ing or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reactions
and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in people in
the near vicinity. 
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as
carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the ma-

terial wherever possible.

– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in
the country of use must be observed.

u

Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. 

Dust can

easily ignite.

Self-generated dust extraction with dust bag (see figures
C–E)

Place and move the complete dust bag 

(2)

 onto the extrac-

tion outlet 

(13)

 until it lines up precisely with the power tool.

To empty the dust bag

(14)

, pull the complete dust bag 

(2)

away from the extraction outlet 

(13)

. Unscrew the adapter

(15)

 from the dust bag 

(14)

 and empty the dust bag.

Note:

 Empty the dust bag 

(14)

 in good time to ensure op-

timum dust extraction.
When working vertical surfaces, hold the power tool in such
a manner that the dust bag 

(2)

 faces downward.

External dust extraction (see figure F)

Fit a dust extraction hose 

(16)

 onto the extraction outlet

(13)

.

Connect the dust extraction hose 

(16)

 to an extractor. You

will find an overview of connecting to various dust extractors
at the end of these operating instructions.
The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being
worked.
When extracting dry dust that is especially detrimental to
health or carcinogenic, use a special dust extractor.
When working on vertical surfaces, hold the power tool with
the dust extraction hose facing downwards.
