Note on brake pad

The brake pad grazes the sanding pad, preventing it from revolving too quickly.


If the brake pad starts to become less effective, first check the sanding pad for wear and replace it if necessary. We recommend also changing the brake pad when you change the sanding pad.


If the brake pad is damaged, please contact Festool customer service.
