DANGER
Sanding wooden floors may lead to an explosive environment. The following safety
procedures must be applied:
- Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, lighters, pilot lights and all other sources of fire may cause
explosion if they are used while sanding. Sources of fire must be completely removed from
the work area.
- Poorly ventilated work areas may lead to an explosive environment when certain
combustible materials are present in the air, such as, for example, solvents, thinners,
alcohols, fuels, some paints, sawdust and other combustible materials. Machines for
sanding floors can cause combustible materials and vapours to ignite.
- Working with the dust created by sanding may lead to spontaneous combustion or
explosions. Dust from sanding may catch fire and cause injury or damage. Dust from
sanding must be dealt with suitably. Always empty the sanding dust into metal containers
located outside the building.
- Empty the dust bag when it is one-third full. Empty the dust bag each time after finishing
with the machine. Never leave the dust bag unattended when it contains sanding dust.
- Do not empty the contents of the bag over a fire.
- Knocking against nails while sanding may cause explosion or start a fire. Always sink all
nails completely before sanding the surfaces.
