Extended Product Information

FAQs

What battery type does the Einhell TP-BS 18/457 Li BL use?

It uses any 18V rechargeable battery from the Einhell Power X-Change system.

Does the battery come included with the sander?

No, the battery and charger are sold separately. They are part of the Power X-Change system and can be purchased independently or as part of a kit.

How do I change the sanding belt?

The belt can be changed tool-free using the locking lever. Release the lever to loosen the belt, install the new belt, and re-engage the lever to apply tension.

Can I use this sander for fine detail work?

While it is primarily designed for larger areas, the electronic speed control allows for some adjustment. For very fine detail, a smaller orbital or detail sander might be more appropriate.

What is the warranty on the brushless motor?

Einhell offers a 10-year motor warranty on PurePOWER Brushless motors after registration of the product.

What is the size of the sanding belt required?

The sander uses belts with dimensions of 75mm x 457mm.

Can I use the sander without a dust collector?

Yes, you can use it without a dust collector, but it will create a significant amount of dust. It is highly recommended to use the included dust collection box or connect an external dust extractor for a cleaner and healthier working environment.

Troubleshooting

Sanding belt is not running straight

Use the belt adjustment knob to center the belt. Ensure the belt is correctly installed and not damaged.

Tool has no power

Check that the battery is correctly inserted and charged. Ensure there are no obstructions in the air vents.

Poor sanding performance

Verify the sanding belt is the correct grit and is not worn out. Increase the speed setting if appropriate for the material. Ensure the tool is making full contact with the surface.

Excessive dust in the work area

Clean the dust collection box and check for blockages in the extraction adapter and hose. Ensure a powerful enough vacuum is connected if using an external dust collector.
