Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. 

A wrench or a key left 

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

This enables better control of the 

power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away 

from moving parts. 

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these 

are connected and properly used. 

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. 

The correct power tool 

will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. 

Any power tool that cannot be 

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before 

making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. 

Such preventive safety 

measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the 

power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

 Power tools are dangerous in the hands 

of untrained users.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and 

any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool 

repaired before use.

 Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less 

likely to bind and are easier to control.

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.

Service

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.

Specific safety rules

              

WARNING:

 Know your sander. Do not plug in the sander until you have read and 

understand this Instruction Manual. Learn the tool’s applications and limitations, as well as the specific 
potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or 
serious injury.

                        Always wear eye protection. Any power tool can throw foreign objects into your eyes and 
                        cause permanent eye damage. ALWAYS wear safety goggles (not glasses) that comply 
                        with ANSI safety standard Z87.1. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses.
                        They ARE NOT safety glasses.
 

              

WARNING:

 

Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could cause 

serious injury when they break.

              

WARNING:

 

Always use a dust mask when sanding.

              

WARNING:

 

Always use hearing protection when sanding, particularly during 

extended periods of operation.

               

WARNING:

 

Always unplug the tool from the power source before changing the 

sanding disc or buffing pad and when cleaning the tool.

Do not wear gloves, neckties or loose clothing.

Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the work when practical. It is safer than using your 
hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.

Do not sand material too small to be securely held.

Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be sanded.

Always keep hands out of the path of the sanding pad. Avoid awkward hand positions where a sudden 
slip could cause your hand to move into the path of the sanding pad.

To avoid injury from accidental starting, always remove the plug from the power source before installing 
or removing sandpaper or the dust duct bag.
