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 situation.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced
by a qualified repair person using
only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY
POINTS FOR YOUR
SANDER
1. Harmful/toxic dusts will arise
from sanding e.g. lead painted
surfaces, woods and metals.
Contact with or inhalation of these
dusts can endanger the health of
operator and bystanders. Always
use eye glasses and dust mask.
2. Hearing protection should be
worn when using the sander.
3. Hold power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces, 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.
4. Always wear safety glasses
or eye shields when using the
sander. Everyday eyeglasses have
only impact-resistant lenses; they
are not safety glasses.
Following
this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
5. Remove the plug from the
socket before carrying out
any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
6. Fully unwind cable drum
extensions to avoid potential
overheating.
7. When an extension cable is
required you must ensure it has
the correct ampere rating for
your power tool and is in a safe
electrical condition.
8. Ensure your mains supply
voltage is same as indicated on
the rating plate.
9. Your tool is double insulated
for additional protection against
a possible electrical insulation
failure within the tool.
10. Always check walls, floors and
ceilings to avoid hidden power
cables and pipes.
