ures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
u
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to oper-
ate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
u
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired be-
fore use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
u
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
u
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
u
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unex-
pected situations.
Service
English
u
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replace-
ment parts.
This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
Safety Warnings for Sander
English
u
Only use the power tool for dry sanding.
Wa-
ter entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
u
Ensure that no persons are at risk due to fly-
ing sparks. Remove combustible materials
from the surrounding area.
Flying sparks are
created when sanding metals.
u
Warning: Danger of fire! Avoid overheating
the workpiece and the sander. Always empty
the dust collector before taking a break from
work.
Sanding dust in the dust bag, microfilter,
paper bag (or in the filter bag or vacuum
cleaner filter) can spontaneously combust un-
der certain conditions, for example if flying
sparks are created when sanding metals. This
risk is increased if the sanding dust is mixed
with paint or polyurethane residue or with other
chemical substances and if the workpiece is
hot as a result of prolonged work.
u
Clean the air vents on your power tool regu-
larly.
The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside
the housing and excessive accumulation of
powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
u
Hold the power tool firmly with both hands
and make sure you have a stable footing.
The
power tool can be more securely guided with
both hands.
u
Always wait until the power tool has come to
a complete stop before placing it down.
u
Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
