Removing the dust extraction adaptor
u Turn the locking nut (14) anti-clockwise.
u Pull the dust extraction adaptor (13) out of the sanding
base (12).
Fitting alternative accessories (g. L)
u Place the spacer (16) onto the collar (15).
u Place the alternative accessory (17) onto the collar (15).
u Firmly attach the xing bolt (18) into place to ensure a
tight t for the alternative accessory (17).

STANLEY FATMAX accessories. STANLEY FATMAX
accessories are attached using the Super-lok
TM
Tool free
accessory clamping lever.
Use
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Warning! Before cutting into walls, oors or ceilings, check for
the location of wiring and pipes.
Variable speed control (g. M)
The variable speed control allows you to adapt the speed of
the tool to the application.
u Set the variable speed dial (2) to the desired setting. At
setting 1 the tool will operate at low speed, 8,000 min-1.
At setting 6 the tool will operate at the maximum speed,
18,000 min-1.
Switching on and off (g. N)
u To switch the tool on, slide the on/off switch (1) forward
(position I).
u To switch the tool off, slide the on/off switch (1) to the rear
(position O).
LED work light
The LED work light (4) is activated automatically when the tool
is switched on.
Low-battery Indicator
If the LED worklight (4) begins to rapidly and continuously
ash when the switch on the tool is depressed, the battery-
pack power has run out, and the battery pack should
be recharged.
Unlike other battery pack types, Lithium-Ion battery packs
deliver fade-free power for their entire run time. The tool will
not experience a slow, gradual loss of power as you work. To
signal that the battery pack is at the end of its run time and
needs to be charged, the power to the tool will drop quickly.
Note: The LED may also ash due to an overload or high
temperature (see Battery Protection).
Hints for optimum use
u Always hold the tool securely. For precision work, hold the
tool near the front.
u Clamp the workpiece whenever possible, especially when
using cutting blades.
u Do not exert too much pressure on the tool.
u Always use the appropriate type of attachment for the
workpiece material and type of cut.
u Regularly check the condition of accessories. Replace
when necessary.
u Mark the desired starting point.
u Switch the tool on and slowly feed attachments into the
workpiece at the desired starting point.
u Clamp a piece of plywood or soft wood to the back of the
workpiece and saw through the combination in order to
obtain a clear cut.
u Do not force the cutting blade into the workpiece. Note
that cutting sheet metal will normally take more time than
sawing thicker wooden workpieces.
u When cutting metal spread a thin lm of oil along the
cutting line before cutting.
u When sanding new layers of paint before applying another
layer, use extra ne grit.
u On very uneven surfaces, or when removing layers of
paint, start with a coarse grit. On other surfaces, start with
a medium grit. In both cases, gradually change to a ne
grit for a smooth nish.
u Consult your retailer for more information on
available accessories.
Maintenance

cordless power tools:
u Switch off and unplug the appliance/tool.
u Or switch off and remove the battery from the appliance/
tool if the appliance/tool has a separate battery pack.
u Or run the battery down completely if it is integral and then
switch off.
u Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your appliance/tool/
charger using a soft brush or dry cloth.
u Regularly clean the motor housing using a damp cloth. Do
not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
