
Keep your body out of the area into which
the electric power tool moves when
a recoil occurs.
Kickback propels the electric power tool in the
direction opposite to the movement of the
sanding disc at the point of pinching.

Work especially carefully near corners,
sharp edges, etc. Prevent the insertion
tool from recoiling off the workpiece and
jamming.
The rotating insertion tool has a tendency to
snag on corners, sharp edges or if it bounces.
This causes a loss of control or kickback.

Do not use a chain or toothed saw blade.
Such insertion tools frequently cause
a kickback or the loss of control of the
electric power tool.
Special safety instructions
for sanding:

Use only those sanding tools authorised
for use with your electric power tool and
the guard designated for this sanding
tool.
Sanding tools, which are not designated for
use with the electric power tool, cannot be
adequately shielded and are unsafe.

The guard must be attached securely
to the electric power tool and adjusted
to ensure maximum safety, i.e. the
smallest possible part of the sanding
tool is exposed to the operator.
The guard should protect the operator from
fragments and accidental contact with the
sanding tool.

Sanding tools may be used for the
recommended applications only.
For example: Never sand with the side
area of a diamond sanding pad.
Diamond sanding pads are designed to
remove material with the underside of the
sanding pad. If a lateral force is applied to
these sanding tools, they may shatter.

Always use undamaged clamping flanges
in the correct size and shape for the
insertion tool you have selected.
Suitable flanges support the insertion tools
and therefore reduce the risk of a break.

Do not use worn insertion tools
from larger electric power tools.
Insertion tools for larger electric power tools
are not designed for the higher speeds of
smaller electric power tools and may break.
Additional safety instructions

Use only extension cables permitted for
outdoor use.

It is not recommended to sand lead paint.
Lead paint should be removed by
a specialist only.

Do not grind or cut materials which release
hazardous substances (e.g. asbestos).
Take precautions if hazardous, combustible
or explosive dust is likely to occur.
Wear protective dust mask.
Use dust extraction system.
