Extra Info
Extra Information
- The LHS-E 225 EQ is part of Festool's PLANEX easy long-reach sander range.
- The machine is designed for drywalling and surface preparation applications on walls and ceilings.
- The direct-drive EC-TEC motor is positioned in the sanding head and does not use a flexible shaft.
- The sanding material diameter is 225 mm, while the replaceable sanding disc diameter is 215 mm.
- The 1,6 m machine length provides practical reach for ceiling and upper-wall work.

- The StickFix system allows fast abrasive changes using compatible Festool sanding discs.
Pro Tips
- Use the correct abrasive grit for each stage of the job. Start coarser for levelling and finish finer before painting.
- Connect dust extraction before sanding. Drywall dust is fine and messy, and extraction makes a huge difference to visibility and clean-up.
- Let the sanding pad do the work. Pressing too hard can create uneven marks and makes overhead work more tiring.
- Use slower speed settings for more controlled sanding on delicate filler or finish coats.
- Keep the sanding pad flat against the surface to avoid edge marks or uneven sanding patterns.
- Replace worn abrasives early. A fresh disc cuts cleaner, reduces heat and gives a better finish.
How to Use
- Choose the correct Festool StickFix abrasive disc for the surface and sanding stage.
- Attach the abrasive disc evenly to the sanding pad.
- Connect the plug-it cable securely to the sander.
- Connect a suitable dust extractor to the 36/27 mm dust extraction connection.
- Set the sanding speed according to the surface material and required finish.
- Place the sanding pad flat against the wall or ceiling before starting the machine.
- Move the sander smoothly across the surface using overlapping passes.
- Avoid excessive pressure; allow the abrasive and machine movement to do the work.
- Check the surface regularly with suitable lighting to monitor progress and avoid over-sanding.
- After use, switch off the machine, allow it to stop fully and store it in the transport bag.
Safety
Safety
- Read the operating instructions and safety information before using the sander.
- Wear suitable eye, ear and dust protection when sanding walls, ceilings, filler, plaster or coatings.
- Always use dust extraction when sanding drywall or plasterboard filler to reduce fine airborne dust.
- Check that the sanding pad and abrasive disc are properly fitted before switching on the machine.
- Do not use damaged, torn or poorly attached sanding discs.
- Keep both hands on the machine during operation and maintain a stable stance.
- Be careful when sanding overhead; take breaks to reduce fatigue and maintain control.
- Keep the extraction hose and cable routed safely to avoid tripping or pulling the machine off balance.
- Allow the sanding pad to stop fully before placing the machine down.
- Disconnect the machine from the power supply before changing pads, cleaning or carrying out maintenance.
- Do not sand unknown coatings without checking whether harmful dust or hazardous material may be present.
- Dispose of sanding dust according to the material type and local requirements.
