ing wood, plastic, metal, stone, composite mate-
rials, paint/varnish, fi ller and similar materials.
Materials containing asbestos must not be pro-
cessed.
For reasons of electrical safety the machine must
not be damp nor operated in a humid environment.
The machine may only be used for dry sanding.
The user is liable for damage and injury
resulting from incorrect usage!
2 Safety instructions
2.1 General Safety
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, in-
structions, illustrations and specifi cations pro-
vided with this power tool.
Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
2.2 Tool-specifi c safety rules
Always wear protective goggles because
of possible dangers when sanding.
- The manufacturer’s handling and processing
instructions must be observed without fail if
explosive or self-igniting dusts are likely to oc-
cur during sanding.
- Harmful/toxic dusts can occur during your work
(e.g. lead-containing paint, some types of wood
and metal). Contact with these dusts, espe-
cially inhaling them, can represent a hazard for
operating personnel or persons in the vicinity.
Comply with the safety regulations that apply in
your country. Connect the electric power tool to
a suitable extraction system.
To protect your health, wear a P2 protec-
tive mask.
- Only for AS/NZS: The tool shall always be sup-
plied via residual current device with a rated
residual current of 30 mA or less.
2.3 Noise and vibration information
The typical values determined in accordance with
EN 62841 (see EU Declaration of Conformity) are:
Sound-pressure level
80 dB(A)
Sound-power level 91 dB(A)
Measuring uncertainty allowance K = 3 dB
Wear ear protection!
Overall vibration levels (vector sum for three direc-
tions) measured in accordance with EN 62841 (see
EU Declaration of Conformity):
Vibration emission level
(3 directions)
a
h
= 7.1 m/s
2
Uncertainty K = 1.7 m/s
2
The specifi ed emissions values (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise loads
during operation.
- They represent the primary applications of the
power tool.
CAUTION
The emissions during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared
values depending on the ways in which
the tool is used especially what kind of
workpiece is processed.
