c) Disconnect the plug from the power 

source before making any adjustments, 

changing accessories, or storing power 

tools. 

Such preventive safety measures re-

duce the risk of starting the power tool ac-

cidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach 

of children and do not allow persons 

unfamiliar with the power tool or these 

instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of 

untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-

alignment or binding of moving parts, 

breakage of parts and any other condi-

tion that may affect the power tools op-

eration. If damaged, have the power tool 

repaired before use.

 Many accidents are 

caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp 

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are 

easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and 

tool bits etc., in accordance with these 

instructions and in the manner intended 

for the particular type of power tool, tak-

ing 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.

5) Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a 

quali

fi

 ed repair person using only identi-

cal replacement parts.

 This will ensure that 

the safety of the power tool is maintained.

 TO REDUCE THE RISK OF 

INJURY, USER MUST READ AND UNDER-

STAND INSTRUCTION MANUAL. 

 Various dust created by power 

sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other 

construction activities contains chemicals 

known (to the State of California) to cause 

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive 

harm. Some examples of these chemicals 

are:

Lead from lead-based paints,
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement 

and other masonry products,

•
•

Arsenic and chromium from chemically-

treated lumber.

The risk from these exposures varies, depend-

ing on how often you do this type of work.

 To reduce your exposure to these 

chemicals work in a well ventilated 

area and use approved safety equip-

ment, such as dust masks that are 

specially designed to 

fi

 lter out micro-

scopic particles.

Intended use 

The sanders are designed for sanding wood, 

plastic, composite materials, paint / varnish, 

fi

 lling material and similar materials. Metal 

and materials with an asbestos content must 

not be processed with these tools. 
The machine is particularly suitable for pro-

cessing smaller surfaces and overhead work 

because of its size, its weight and its out-

put. 
The machines must not be damp nor operated 

in a damp environment for electrical safety 

reasons. The machines may only be used for 

dry sanding.
