SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR SANDER
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live”
and shock the operator.
Always wear safety goggles and a dust mask when sanding, especially
sanding over-head.
A suitable breathing respirator must be worn while sanding chemically
pressure treated objects.
The machine is not suitable for wet sanding.
Do not use sanding paper larger than needed. Extra paper extending
beyond the sanding pad can cause serious lacerations.
The dust bag shall be equipped with the tool. And it shall be emptied
frequently. Do not throw sanding dust on an open fire because materials in
fine particle form may be explosive.
