Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed
by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SAFETY RULES FOR SANDERS
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
Your tool is equipped with a dust bag – empty it frequently after completion of sanding
and before storing the sander. Be extremely careful of dust disposal – materials in fine
particle form may be explosive. Do not throw sanding dust on an open fire. Combustion from
mixture of varnishes, lacquers, polyurethane, oil, or water with dust particles can occur if there
is a static discharge, spark introduced in the bag, or excessive heat.
Always wear eye protection and a dust mask for dusty applications and when sanding
overhead. Sanding particles can be absorbed by your eyes and inhaled easily and may cause
health complications.
Do not wet sand with this sander. Liquids entering the motor housing are an electrical shock
hazard.
Do not use sandpaper intended for larger sanding pads. Larger sandpaper will extend
beyond the sanding pad causing snagging, tearing of the paper, or kick-back. Extra paper
extending beyond the sanding pad can also cause serious lacerations.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely control
the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool. When cleaning a tool, be careful
not to disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc.
may damage plastic parts.
