cord.
Special safety instructions
•
Hold the power tool by the insulated grips when working in areas where it may come into contact
with concealed electrical cables or its own power cord. Contact with a live cable will cause the
metal parts on the tool to also become live – risk of electric shock.
•
Dust from wood, metal and lead-based paint can be harmful to health.
-
All persons in the work area must wear a filter mask that provides protection from dust.
-
Use a dust extractor and keep the work area well ventilated.
-
Children and pregnant women must not go into the work area.
-
Avoid eating, drinking or smoking in the work area.
Older types of paint on metal or wood can be lead-based. Contact a professional if you suspect
that the paint is lead-based.
•
Dust from some types of wood and wood products, e.g. chipboards and fibreboards can be harmful
to health. Wear a dust filter mask with replaceable filter and use a dust extractor.
•
Stand firmly and make sure that the power cord does not touch the tool, or fasten and get in the
way.
•
The tool removes material by means of abrasion.
•
Check that the workpiece is free of nails and foreign objects.
•
The tool must not be used for wet sanding.
•
Secure small workpieces so that they cannot move.
•
Do not overload the tool. Let the tool do the work. Do not overload the tool and reduce the motor
speed. Pressing harder will not speed up the work, but will put more strain on the tool and
accessories.
•
Do not use the dust bag when sanding metal. Hot metal particles could ignite the filter or residual
wood dust.
•
Do not use worn, damaged or clogged sanding belts.
•
Do not touch the sanding belt when the tool is running.
WARNING:
Vibration levels can deviate from the declared value during the actual use of the tool,
depending on how the tool is used.
The following measures will reduce the risk of injury as a result of vibrations.
