4) Power tool use and care
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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 meas-
ures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) 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.
e) 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.
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 opera-
tions 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 Warnings
a) Always ensure that the material to be sanded is firmly fixed to prevent its movement.
b) Dust can be highly combustible. Vacuum dust collection bag should be cleaned or replaced daily.
Cleaning or replacing of bag also assures optimum performance.
c) Keep hands clear of the spinning pad during use.
d) Do not allow the tool to free speed without taking precautions to protect any persons or objects
from the loss of the abrasive or pad.
Proper Use of Tool
This sander is designed for sanding all types of materials i.e. metals, wood, stone, plastics, etc. using abra-
sive designed for this purpose. Do not use this sander for any other purpose than that specified without
consulting the manufacturer or the manufacturer’s authorized supplier. Do not press on the shroud when
sanding. Pressing on the shroud will reduce its lifespan. Do not use backing pads that have a working
speed less than 10,000 RPM free speed. The cooling air vents on the housing must always be free of block-
ages and clean to ensure air circulation. Any maintenance or repair work requiring the motor housing to
be opened may only be carried out by an authorized service center.
Work Stations
The tool is intended to be operated as a hand held tool. It is always recommended that the tool should be
used when standing on a solid floor. It can be in any position but before any such use, the operator must
be in a secure position having a firm grip and footing and be aware that the sander can develop a torque
reaction. See the section “Operating Instructions”.
