making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures 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
tools 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.
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.
6. Electrical safety
Your tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required. Always check that the main
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate.
Warning! If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized
Stanley Service Center or an equally qualified
person in order to avoid damage or injury. If the
power cord is replaced by an equally qualified
person, but not authorized by Stanley, the
warranty will not be valid.

Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

or disburse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR SANDERS
SANDING
Lead Base Paint
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED
due to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust.
The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women. Since it is difficult to identify whether or
not a paint contains lead without a chemical analysis,
we recommend the following precautions when sanding
any paint:
Personal Safety
f
No children or pregnant women should enter the work
area where the paint sanding is being done until all
clean up is completed.
f
A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all
persons entering the work area. The filter should
be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty
breathing.
Note: Only those dust masks suitable for working
with lead paint dust and fumes should be used.
Ordinary painting masks do not offer this protection.
See your local hardware dealer for the proper (NIOSH
approved) mask.
f
NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be
done in the work area to prevent ingesting
contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash
and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking.
