Compliance with safety measures and warnings
Using the machine when not fully assembled may cause injury or
damage to people or objects. DO NOT use the machine when

The sanding machine may create an explosive environment.
Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, lighters, pilot flames, or any other
source of fire may create an explosion if lit during sanding
operations. No sources of fire should be kept near the work area.
Poorly ventilated work areas may create an explosive
environment when some combustible materials are present in
the atmosphere, such as solvents, thinners, alcohol, fuel, some
paints, wood dust or other combustible materials. Floor sanding
may cause various materials and fumes to ignite. Read the
manufacturer’s instructions for each chemical product used and
establish its combustibility. Always keep the work area well-
ventilated.
Striking nails when sanding may generate an explosion or fire.
Always ensure all nails are sunk before sanding surfaces.
