FLEX Giraffe ®Wall and ceiling sanding sytems

FLEX Giraffe ®Globally the No. 1 for wall and ceiling sanding systemsThe work of painters, drywall constructors, plastering specialists and manyother trades was revolutionised with the introduction by FLEX of the first Giraffe®WS 702 VEA long-neck sander for wall and ceiling working in Europe in 1997.The FLEX Giraffe® is the world‘s most widely-sold long-neck sander.The reliable and proven Giraffe® WS 702 VEA was followed by the innovative andunique Giraffe® WSE 500. Along with an increase in the power rating to 500 watt,above all the service life and quality of the machine have been significantlyincreased.With the innovative and unique Vario-Giraffe® WST 700 VV for the first time a longnecksander is available that can „stretch“ and that is equipped with a uniqueinterchangeable head system. Along with sanding large surfaces, the innovativetriangular sanding head has now also made it possible to seamlessly sand up toedges and into corners. Without the need for a ladder or scaffolding. This allowsfor a direct finish of the corners and edges.The Concrete-Giraffe® WST 1000 FV is the result of consequently adapting thetechnology of the successful long-neck sander to work on concrete, plaster, paintcoatings, screeds, both natural and artificial stone, tile adhesives and many othermaterials on walls and ceilings. FLEX now has a unique family of long-neck sanderswhich can deal with practically all the requirements placed. An insight is providedon the following pages into the numerous applications for FLEX Giraffe® sanders.

Classic-Giraffe ® WSE 500The proven long-neck sander now even better.NOVELTYWith the new Classic-Giraffe ® WSE 500, the proven Giraffe ® WS 702 VEA has been logically further developed. Along with an increasein the motor power rating to 500 watt for a high removal rate, all components have been further developed for robustness and longservice life. The proven universal-joint-mounted sanding head is equipped with a new backing pad with 10-hole extraction. Thebacking pad is available in three hardness grades. In conjunction with FLEX safety vacuum cleaners the FLEX extraction system ofcourse ensures an almost dust-free working environment.3 Super soft sanding pad withperforation for dust extraction(on the standard equipment).Ideal for finishing surfaces. Thesoft sanding pad acts as an additionalcushion and replacesthe elaborate mat under conventionalsanding discs. Thisfeature saves costs for sandingdiscs.4 The spring-mounted brushring on the extraction hoodprevents unintentional scoringon placing in contact.The flexible brush ring ensuresoptimal dust extraction.The extraction between thebrush ring and the 10-holeextraction prevents the abrasiveclogging quickly and permitsdust-free, healthy working.5 Robust joint betweensupport pipe and oval pipe withsleeve fastening for highstability.83 Three backing padswith velcro system areavailable:The very flexible „soft backingpad“ (on the standard equipment)permits sensitive workingand as a result avoids undesirablesanding marks. For higher removalrates during roughsanding, the „medium backingpad“ and „hard backing pad“are available with differenthardnesses.2 Reliable power transmissionand high flexibility due to theflexible drive shaft from themotor to the sanding disc.Decades of proven „FLEX technology“.Due to this designprinciple the weight at thehead of the Giraffe isreduced to a minimum.This feature easeshandling.2511 The universal-joint-mountedsanding head ensures high flexibilityand optimal adaptationon sanding walls and ceilings.348 The oval guide tube andthe optimally positioned motormake it easier to handle andguide the machine.4

FLEX Safety vacuum cleanersFor your good health!The filter system of the FLEX safety vacuum cleaners intercept all dust and evenhealth-harmful substances. This provides even more safety during dry and wetoperation. And before the filter becomes clogged, it is automatically cleanedwithout interrupting the work process.The suction power remains constant, and there is no down time for filter cleaning!The 12 best advantages of the FLEX safety vacuum cleaners.1. Integrated flat-fold filterIs extremely flat and, different from cartridgefilters, does not protrude into thecontainer. Thus the container can be used100% and the filter remains absolutelydry even during wet vacuuming.2. Filter cleaningCan be activated manually when runningat any time by pressing the filter-cleanswitch or on some models automatically3. Reinforced paper bagsExtra rip-proof and safe even withsharp-edged objects.4. Deposit tray and holdersKeep hoses and accessories tidy.5. Bayonet connectorThe suction hose connection rotates andis fastened by bayonet: no twisting, noaccidental loosening of the suction hoseduring operation.6. Drive motor with bypass ventilatorVacuum air and motor cooling air blowseparately in two channels. Dirty vacuumair is not fed through the motor. Thisprotects the motor and increases thevacuum performance.7. Power tool outletTo connect other tools. Starts and stopsthe vacuum as the machine is switchedon and off. With 15-second automaticafter-running.8. HousingThe impact-resistant, recyclable plastichousing is tough, light, easy to clean, andcorrosion-free.9. Smooth-running carriageTwo large wheels and two double-castoringrollers with locking brakes.10. Sound insulation hoodThe suction turbine is encapsulated;operating noise is greatly reduced.11. Dust class L– Dust with MAK values > 1 mg/m312. Dust category M– Dust with MAK values > 0.1 mg/m3– Mineral dusts 1)– Wood dust (also beech and oak)1) Mineral dusts arise when construction materialis worked on (grinding, cutting, drilling...). Thatis why M Dust Class equipment is prescribed forworking on concrete, stone, masonry, screedand plaster, for instance. The sand componentcontained specially as quartz sand in thesematerials is responsible for this classification.
