PLANEX LHS 2 225 Quick Guide - LED control with Work App

Controlling LED light at the PLANEX long-reach sander

You can switch the LED light on or off using the key on the handle of the PLANEX long-reach sander.

The LED light has an auto-start function that is preset at the factory:

• When the PLANEX long-reach sander is switched on, the LED light automatically switches on.

• When the sander is switched off, the LED light always switches off automatically with the tool.

If the PLANEX long-reach sander is connected to the Festool Work App via Bluetooth®, you have additional setting options:

• Switch the LED light on and off (similar to the key on the PLANEX long-reach sander)

• Switch off the auto-start function of the light

• Dim the LED light

Note on lighting control

You can switch the LED light on and off both using the key on the handle of the PLANEX long-reach sander and using the Festool Work App.


The 'auto-start' and 'dim light' functions can only be set up on the Work App. The PLANEX long-reach sander must be connected to the Work App via Bluetooth® for this. Once you have set one of the functions, the LEDs light up green on the PLANEX long-reach sander. Please note that the tool automatically follows the setting last defined in the Work App.


You can always switch between the factory settings for the power tool and the individually defined settings in the Festool Work App by pressing the Bluetooth® key on the handle of the PLANEX long-reach sander. If the factory settings are activated, the green LEDs on the handle switch off.


You can reset the settings by holding down the Bluetooth® key on the PLANEX long-reach sander for approx. 15 seconds. The green LEDs on the handle then switch off in this case as well.
