tion where the sanding accessory could contact 

hidden wiring.

2.  Protect  your  lungs.  Wear  a  face  or  dust  mask 

during operation. Following this rule will reduce 

the risk of serious respiratory injury.

3.  Protect  your  hearing.  Wear  hearing  protection 

during  extended  periods  of  operation.  Follow

-

ing this rule will reduce the risk of serious per-

sonal injury.

4. 

Inspect power cords periodically and repair 

them as needed at your nearest authorized ser-

vice center. Constantly stay aware of cord loca

-

tion.  Following  this  rule  will  reduce  the  risk  of 

electric shock or fire.

5.  Check  damaged  parts.  Before  further  use  of 

the tool, determine that it will operate proper-

ly and perform its intended function. Check for 

alignment, binding or breakage of moving parts 

or any other conditions that may affect its op

-

eration. A guard or other part that is damaged 

should be properly repaired or replaced by an 

authorized  service  center.  Following  this  rule 

will reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious in

-

jury.

6.  Remove all nails from lumber before using this 

tool.

7. 

Do not use the sander to remove lead-based 

paints.

  WARNING: 

This product and the dust created by 

power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and oth-

er construction activities may contain chemicals, 

including lead, can cause cancer, birth defects, or 

other  reproductive  harm.  Wash  hands  after  han

-

dling. 

Some examples of these chemicals are:

ƒ

lead from lead-based paints  

ƒ

crystalline silica from bricks and cement and 

other masonry products 

ƒ

arsenic and chromium from chemically treated 

lumber.

f

Use the machine only for dry sanding. Penetration 

of water into the machine increases the risk of an 

electric shock.

    CAUTION, FIRE HAZARD!

 Avoid overheating the 

object being sanded as well as the sander. Always 

empty the dust collector before taking breaks. In 

unfavourable  conditions,  e.  g.,  when  sparks  emit 

from sanding metals, sanding debris in the dust 

bag, micro filter or paper sack (or in the filter sack 

or filter of the vacuum cleaner) can self-ignite. Par

-

ticularly when mixed with remainders of varnish, 

polyurethane or other chemical materials and 

when the sanding debris is hot after long periods 

of working.          

f

Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with 

clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure 

than by hand.

VIBRATION SAFETY 

This  tool  vibrates  during  use.  Repeated  or  long-

term exposure to vibration may cause temporary 

or permanent physical injury, particularly to the 

hands, arms and shoulders.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ANY VIBRATION-RE-

LATED INJURY:

ƒ

First be examined by a doctor and then have reg

-

ular medical check-ups to ensure medical prob-

lems are not being caused or worsened from 

use.  Pregnant  women  or  people  who  have  im

-

paired blood circulation to the hand, past hand 

injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, 

or  Raynaud’s  Disease  should  not  use  this  tool. 

If you feel any symptoms related to vibration 

(such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue 

fingers), seek medical advice as soon as possible.

ƒ

Use tools with the lowest vibration when there 

is a choice.

ƒ

Take vibration-free breaks during each day of 

work.

ƒ

Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keep

-

ing safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Make sure the power supply information on the 

machine’s rating plate are compatible with the 

power supply you intend to connect it to. 

This appliance is Class II* and is designed for con-

nection to a power supply matching that detailed 

on the rating label and compatible with the plug 

fitted. If an extension lead is required, use an ap

-

proved and compatible lead rated for this appli-

ance. Follow all the instruction supplied with the 

extension lead.

*   Double  insulated 

: This product requires 

no earth connection as supplementary in-

sulation is applied to the basic insulation to 

protect against electric shock in the event of 

failure of the basic insulation.

GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS

f

Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-

tion.  When  using  an  extension  cord,  be  sure  to 

use one heavy enough to carry the current your 

product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a 

drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and 

overheating. 

f

Always replace a damaged extension cord or have 

it repaired by a qualified person before using it.

f

Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, 

excessive heat and damp/wet areas.

f

Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This 

circuit should be protected with the appropriate 

time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor 

to the power line, make sure the switch is in the 

OFF position and the electric voltage is rated the 

same as the voltage stamped on the motor name-

plate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the 

motor.
