Further safety instructions
–
Wear suitable personal protective equip­
ment: Ear protection, safety goggles, a dust
mask for work that generates dust.
– Wear suitable breathing protection to pro­
tect your health. In enclosed spaces, en­
sure that there is sufficient ventilation and
connect a mobile dust extractor.
– Harmful/poisonous dust may be produced
when working (e.g. paint products con­
taining lead and some types of wood).
Contact with or inhalation of this dust may
pose a risk for the operating personnel or
persons in the vicinity. Comply with the
safety regulations that apply in your coun­
try. Connect the power tool to a suitable
dust extractor.
– Use a residual-current circuit break­
er (RCCB) or an isolating transformer if
operation of the power tool in a damp en­
vironment cannot be avoided. In the event
of an electric shock, the residual-current
circuit breaker (RCCB) or isolating trans­
former protects you against life-threaten­
ing current through the body.
–
Attention: Risk of fire! Avoid overheating
the grinding material and the sander. Al­
ways empty the dust container before tak­
ing a break. Swarf in the dust bag, microfil­
ter, paper bag (or in the filter bag or filter
of the mobile dust extractor) may sponta­
neously combust in unfavourable condi­
tions such as flying sparks when sanding
metals. Particular danger exists if the
swarf is mixed with paint, polyurethane
residue or other chemical materials and
