1.1 CONSTANT ELECTRONIC CONTROL
The TPF115/350VE machines is equipped with an electronic
circuit that maintains constant motor revolutions in all working
situations, guaranteeing optimal working conditions.
1.2 APPLICATIONS
As a result of the r.p.m. and constant electronic control
mechanisms, the TPF115/350VE is particularly suitable for
metal filler sanding and vehicle bodywork.
1.3 USE AND APPLICATION
The tool is supplied ready for use it is only necessary to insert
the abrasive paper onto the pad.
Pre-punched abrasive paper, or normal paper to be punched
with the paper punch supplied, can be applied (for the AS
models with shavings extraction). In order to fix the abrasive
paper, proceed as follows (fig. 2-3):
1) Open one fixing clamp and insert the sheet of abrasive
paper into the exact position.
2) Position the sheet of abrasive paper on the base of the
tool.
3) Open the second clamp and insert the other edge of the
sheet of abrasive paper.
Check that the sheet is firmly secured and that it completely
covers the base of the tool.completely covers the base of
the tool.
Attention!
Excessive pressure on the handgrip does not necessarily
result in higher sanding speed, on the contrary, it can
provoke motor overloading and less efficient operation.
1.4 ABRASIVE PAPER
Only use good quality abrasive paper as this will improve the
sanding efficiency and reduce working time.
Use coarse grade (40-60-80) sanding sheets for when large
quantities of material require to be removed.
For finishing operations use 150 to 320 grade sanding
sheets.
1.5 SHAVINGS SUCTION UNITS (FIG. 2-3)
Felisatti AS22 and AS35/E dust suction units have been
designed to keep working areas clean and free from dust.
The AS35/E model is remote-controlled by means of the
switch on the electric power tool, that can be connected by
simply inserting the plug into the socket located on the dust
suction unit, thus avoiding wasting time and energy.
Always remember to empty the dus suction bag, it could fill
up and in that way make working operations less efficient.
Felisatti suction units can also be used for these tools.
1.6 IMPROPER USE
The functions and use of this tool are those exclusively
indicated in this manual.
ANY OTHER USE OF THE TOOL IS EXPLICITLY
FORBIDDEN !
1.7
ATTENTION!
Contact with or inhalation of the processing dust may
be dangerous for the operator and for anyone who is in
the vicinity.
Particular care must be taken when smoothing wood or
surfaces painted with lead paint due to the dangerous dust
produced. It is recommended to use safety goggles
and anti-dust masks.
MAINTENANCE
Regular inspection reduces the necessity for maintenance
operations and will keep your tool in good working condition.
The tool bearings are life-long lubricated. The motor must
be correctly ventilated during tool operation. For this reason
avoid blocking the air inlets with hands. After use, disconnect
the tool from the power supply and clean carefully.
7.1 DISPOSAL
At the end of the machine’s working life, or when it can no

products;
- Contact the special recycling centers.
PARTS REPLACEMENT
Attention!
Disconnect the plug from the power supply socket
before replacing any parts.
1.1 BRUSHES
The brushes must be replaced after approx. 150-200
working hours, or if they are less then 5-6 mm in length.
Attention!
For correct tool operation always change the brushes in
pairs, not separately. The use of original Felisatti spare
parts is recommended.
Attention!
This operation should only be performed by anauthorized
service center.
ATTENTION: After fitting new brushes allow the motor to
run idle for 5 minutes.
1.2 REPLACING THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE
Check that the power supply cable is in good condition, if not
have it replaced by an authorized service center.
