e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
This enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connectiIf
devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facili-
ties, ensure these are connected and
properly used.
Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application.
The
correct power tool will do the job bet-
ter and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off.
Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous sit-
uation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is main-
tained.
Special safety instructions.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on application, use face shield, safety
goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate,
wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The
eye protection must be capable of stopping
flying debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable
of filtrating particles generated by your oper-
ation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces, because the belt may contact its own
cord.
Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could
give the operator an electric shock.
While working, do not wear loose clothing,
jewellery or open, long hair.
Despite protec-
tive devices, loose objects can be snagged or
caught by moving parts and lead to injury.
Do not use worn, torn or heavily clogged sand-
ing belts. Handle sanding belts carefully and
store them according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Do not bend or fold sanding
belts!
Damaged sanding belts can tear, be
flung away and injure someone.
Never touch the running sanding belt.
Danger
of injury.
Secure the workpiece firmly.
A work piece
that is gripped tightly in a clamping device or
vice, is more secure than if held by hand.
