If the appliance strikes a foreign body, examine the device •
for signs of damage and carry out any necessary repairs before
restarting and continuing to work.
If the appliance starts to vibrate abnormally, turn it off •
and check for the cause immediately. Vibration is generally a
warning of trouble.
Always switch off the appliance and wait until the device •
completely stops whenever you leave the machine, before
carrying out maintenance, before checking, cleaning or working
on the appliance.
It is forbidden to move or modify any of the internal parts •
of the device.
Specific safety rules
WARNING
Using the device produces dust, heat and vibrations. Use
personal protective equipment to protect your health!
Inhalation or contact with some types of wood, metal or •
paint dust is harmful to health. Always find out about the material
you are working on and adopt the necessary precautions.
Always wear eye protection. The tool can throw foreign •
objects or dust into your eyes and cause permanent eye
damage. Always wear safety goggles.
Always use an appropriate dust mask when sanding. •
Always use hearing protection when sanding, particularly •
during extended periods of operation.
WARNING
To avoid injury from accidental starting, always remove the
plug from the power source before installing or removing
sandpaper or the dust box assembly. Any maintenance must
be performed safely in order to prevent accidents caused by
an unexpected start.
Do not use accessories for works other than those for which •
the device is designed!
Collect the dust produced using the dust box assembly or •
by connecting the device to a suitable dust extractor.
The dust produced may be very flammable, such as that •
produced by wood, light metals, paints, etc. Risk of fire! Regularly
remove the dust produced from the work area.
Sanding metal surfaces can produce sparks. Risk of fire! Keep •
flammable parts at a distance and empty the dust produced
regularly. Use a suitable dust extractor.
Large variations in temperature can lead to condensation •
on live part. Before use, give the machine time to adjust to the
temperature of the work area.
WARNING
If any part is missing or damaged, do not plug the device
into the power source until the missing or damaged part is
replaced.
Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vise to hold the •
workpiece. 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.
Sanding must only be carried out on dry surfaces. The use of •
water or other liquids could lead to electrocution.
Never use the machine for sanding magnesium •
workpieces.
Do not sand materials containing asbestos! •
Working on the ceiling with the tool upwards can be more •
dangerous for the operator. Make sure that you are in a stable
position on the ladder or the trestle. Use a protection helmet in
case any material falls down. Wear eye protection goggles.
Hold the device firmly by its handle grip. Loss of control •
can cause injuries. The strains caused by working lead to stress
which must be contrasted with your force.
WARNING
Always turn on the tool before setting it against the piece you
are working on.
When sanding, avoid applying excessive pressure on the •
device, as otherwise it may be forced to a stop.
If the electrical tool stops during use, switch it off •
immediately. Do not force difficult operations for the tool.
Do not overheat the electrical tool or the sanding surface. •
Risk of fire! Apply light pressure and empty the dust box
regularly.
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.
It is not recommended that this tool be used for extended •
work on any fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling
compounds or plaster. The chips and grindings from these
materials are highly abrasive to electric tool parts such as
bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. During any use on these
materials it is extremely important that the tool is cleaned
frequently by blowing it out with an air jet.
Never carry a plugged-in sander with your finger on the on/ •
off switch.
Wait for the electrical tool to stop completely before putting •
it down.
Additional safety rules for paint removal
WARNING
Always take extreme care when removing paint! Dust and
vapors from paint may contain lead, which is poisonous.
Lead-based paint should only be removed by a professional.
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:
Keep the work area well ventilated. •
Remove or perfectly cover any carpets, furniture, clothing •
and air ducts. Keep food and drink out of the work area.
Wear protective clothing such as extra work shirts, overalls •
and hats. Wash work clothes separately. Wipe shoes off with a
