• Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust chips or

other removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of
through regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean up, children and pregnant women
should be kept away from the immediate work area.

Motor

Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your
tool will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do not operate AC tools on DC. A
rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that you tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or DC
power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power
and can result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does
not operate, check the power supply.

the sanding base again.

• When the whole tip is worn, remove it from the sanding base and fit a new tip.

TIP OF THE SANDING BASE ( FIG. 3)

RENSEIGNEMENTS IMPORTANTS

• Ne jamais utiliser l’outil sans le papier abrasif recommandé bien installé sur le

socle muni.

• Le tampon les socles individuels peuvent être remplacés.  Lorsqu’ils sont usés,

•Il est déconseillé de poncer pendant de longues durées des murs secs avec l’outil.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ

AVERTISSEMENT 

: Lire et comprendre toutes les directives.  Le non-respect de toutes

les directives suivantes présente des risques de secousses électriques,
d'incendie ou de blessures graves.

CONSERVER CES MESURES.

ZONE DE TRAVAIL

S'assurer que la zone de travail est propre et bien éclairée. 

Des établis encombrés et

des endroits sombres présentent des risques d'accidents.

Ne pas utiliser des outils électriques en présence de vapeurs explosives (comme
celles dégagées par des liquides, des gaz ou des poussières inflammables).

Les

étincelles générées par le moteur des outils électriques peuvent enflammer les poussières
ou les vapeurs.

• 

Éloigner les curieux, les enfants et les visiteurs de la zone de travail lorsqu'on utilise
un outil électrique. 

Une distraction peut entraîner la perte de maîtrise de l'outil.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ RELATIVES À L’ÉLECTRICITÉ

Les outils à double isolation comportent une fiche polarisée (une lame plus large que
l'autre).  La fiche n'entre que d'une façon dans une prise polarisée.  Lorsque la fiche
n'entre pas à fond dans la prise, essayer de nouveau après avoir inversé les broches
de la fiche.  Si la fiche n'entre toujours pas dans la prise, communiquer avec un
électricien certifié afin de faire installer une prise polarisée.  Ne modifier en aucune
façon la fiche.

La double isolation 

élimine le besoin d'un cordon trifilaire mis à la terre et

d'un système d'alimentation mis à la terre.

Éviter de toucher à des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux, des radiateurs,
des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs.

Les risques de secousses électriques sont plus

élevés si le corps de l'utilisateur est mis à la terre.

Protéger les outils électriques de la pluie ou des conditions mouillées.

Une infiltration

d'eau dans l'outil augmente les risques de secousses électriques.

Manipuler le cordon avec soin.  Ne jamais se servir du cordon afin de transporter
