(Original instructions)
h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
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 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.
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.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasing
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
6. Service
Additional power tool safety warnings
@
Warning!
Additional safety warnings for
sanders
u
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
because the sanding surface 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.
u
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
u
Warning! Contact with or inhalation of dusts arising
from sanding applications may endanger the health
of the operator and possible bystanders.
Wear a dust
mask specifically designed for protection against dust and
fumes and ensure that persons within or entering the work
area are also protected.
u
Thoroughly remove all dust after sanding.
u
Take special care when sanding paint which is pos-
sibly lead based or when sanding some woods and
metal which may produce toxic dust:
u
Do not let children or pregnant women enter the
work area.
u
Do not eat, drink or smoke in the work area.
u
Dispose of dust particles and any other debris
safely.
u
The intended use is described in this instruction
manual.
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those recom-
mended in this instruction manual may present a risk of
personal injury and/or damage to property.
Safety of others
u
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (includ-
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

Residual risks.
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
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.
b
.
Power to the tool should always be supplied via
residual current device with a rated residual current of
30mA or less.
