SCHALTER-TAST 4XUM 1 switch 4pdt
I suspect 4xUM means 4PDT, and SCHALTER-TAST means switch-tactile.

Tastschalter
n. push button, press button, electric switch that operates via a
pressing
Indeed it is.
After some searching, it appears that the term "4xUM" is often
associated with relays.
I now believe that "UM" is an abbreviation for "umschaltung" which
translates to "changeover".
That makes perfect sense.
See http://www.dict.cc/german-english/Umschaltung.html
So 4xUM = 4PCO = 4PDT, ie you have a pushbutton switch with 4 pole
changeover contacts. But of course you already knew that from the
outset ... :-)
BTW, my favourite switch lubricant/cleaner is Philips 390CCS.
I think these 2 are way beyond that.
