The specified illustrations can be found at the
beginning of the operating instructions.
2 Correct use
The RAP 80.02 E is designed for polishing all
types of painted and lacquered surfaces.
If the AH-RAS 115 extractor hood is fitted, it
can also be used to sand paints/varnishes,
fillers, composite materials, wood, plastics,
metal, stone and similar materials.
Should explosive or inflammable dust
be produced when sanding certain
materials, please refer to the
processing instructions supplied by the
material manufacturer.
The tool is unsuitable for wet sanding
for reasons of electrical safety.
3 Before starting
3.1 Safety instructions
Please read the safely instructions on
the enclosed sheet before starting
work.
3.2 Noise and vibration figures
The values typical for the device measured
according to EN 50 144 are:
Sound level 82 dB(A)
Rated acceleration < 2.5 m/s²
3.3 Metalworking
If the device is used primarily for
processing metals, the inside of the
drive unit may become very dirty.
In such cases, we recommend the use of a
high-power extractor, a shortening of cleaning
cycles and/or the series connection of a faulty
current safety switch.
4 Electrical connection and start-up
The mains voltage must correspond
with the voltage figure on the
ratings plate!
Push the sliding switch (1.1) forwards to switch
the tool on.
A slight pressure on the rear of the switch is
sufficient to switch the rotary polisher off.

5 Electronics
The rotary polisher is fitted with a fullwave
electronic control with the
following functions:
5.1 Smooth run-up
The electronically controlled smooth run-up
ensures that the machine starts without jolts.
5.2 Speed control
The speed of the working spindle can be
infinitely adjusted with the speed controller
(3.1).
The numbers on the speed controller roughly
correspond to the following idling speeds:
1 750 rpm 4 1,600 rpm
2 1,000 rpm 5 1,950 rpm
3 1,350 rpm 6 2,300 rpm
5.3 Constant speed
The preselected motor speed is kept
electronically constant. This ensures a constant
working speed even under load.
5.4 Temperature overload
Extreme overload in continuous running will
cause the motor to overheat.
An electronic temperature monitoring device
is fitted to provide protection against
overheating (burning-out of the motor).
The electronic safety device switches off the
motor before a critical motor temperature is
reached, the tool then has to be switched off
at its switch.
After a cooling period of approx. 3-5 minutes,
the machine is once again ready for use at full
load.
If the machine is kept running (idling), the
cooling period is reduced.
Never use the rotary polisher if its
electronics are faulty since this can lead
to overspeeding.
Faulty electronics are indicated by the absence
of a smooth run-up or speed control as well
as excessive idling noises.
6 Working with the RAP 80.02 E
The RAP 80.02 E is a compact, handy tool for
polishing painted or varnished surfaces.
It can also be used for sanding work if fitted
with the AH-RAS 115 extractor hood (Order
No. 485 056, description see No. 7).
