h
Use the machine only for dry sanding.
Penetration of water into the machine
increases the risk of an electric shock.
CAUTION, FIRE HAZARD! Avoid over-
heating the object being sanded as well
as the sander. Always empty the dust
collector before taking breaks. In unfa
-
vourable conditions, e. g., when sparks
emit from sanding metals, sanding de
-
bris in the dust bag, micro filter or paper
sack (or in the filter sack or filter of the
vacuum cleaner) can self-ignite. Partic
-
ularly when mixed with remainders of
varnish, polyurethane or other chemi -
cal materials and when the sanding de-
bris is hot after long periods of working.
h
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece
clamped with clamping devices or in a
vice is held more secure than by hand.
VIBRATION SAFETY
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated
or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical

and shoulders.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ANY VI-
BRATION-RELATED INJURY:

being caused or worsened from use.
Pregnant women or people who have
impaired blood circulation to the
hand, past hand injuries, nervous sys -

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Make sure the power supply informa -
tion on the machine’s rating plate are
compatible with the power supply you
intend to connect it to.
This appliance is Class II and is designed
for connection to a power supply match-

GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION
CORDS
h
Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating.
h
Always replace a damaged extension
cord or have it repaired by a qualified
person before using it.
h
Protect your extension cords from sharp
objects, excessive heat and damp/wet
areas.
h
Use a separate electrical circuit for your
tools. This circuit should be protected
with the appropriate time-delayed fuse.
Before connecting the motor to the
power line, make sure the switch is in the
OFF position and the electric voltage is
rated the same as the voltage stamped
on the motor nameplate. Running at a
lower voltage will damage the motor.
