Prevention Measures for Users (Cont.)
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.
Serious damage may occur if the power supply circuit trips repeatedly or is undersized. Have the fuses,
safety circuit and power supply line checked by an authorized electrician.
Performing maintenance and/or repairing the machine when it is not fully disconnected from the power
supply may cause death due to electrocution. Disconnect the power supply before carrying out any
maintenance and/or repair work.
The use of this machine on a circuit which is not grounded may cause death due to electrocution. Never
disconnect or disable the grounding conductor. Consult an electrician if the ground conductor is missing or
it is suspected that the circuit is not suitably grounded.
The use of this machine with a damaged power supply cable may cause electric shock. Check the
power supply cable regularly for damage such as splitting or wear and tear.
DO NOT
use
the machine if the power supply cable is damaged.
DO NOT
use the electric cable to move
the machine.
Injury or damage may occur if the machine runs over the power supply cable and it becomes damaged.
Keep the cable away from the lower part of the machine to avoid contact with the abrasive. Always keep
the power supply cable raised above the machine.
The moving parts on this machine may cause serious injury and/or damage. Keep hands, feet and loose
clothing away from all moving parts of the machine.
Performing maintenance or replacing the dust bag may cause injury to the operator or people nearby if the
machine is connected to the power supply.
