Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s painted
surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead.
Noxious dust.
Dust particles created when sanding paint or some types of wood and
metals, for instance, can be toxic or noxious.
Always used dust extraction when sanding.
Connect the extraction hose to the adapter
on the tool. Make sure that the extraction system is suitable for the material to be
machined.
Make sure that your working area is well ventilated when you are working on plastic,
paints, varnishes etc.
Do not treat the workpieces or surfaces to be worked with liquids containing solvents.
Only use the tool for dry sanding/sawing/cutting.
Water penetrating into the tool increases the risk of an electric shock.
Make sure that no persons can be endangered by sparks. Remove all combustible
materials from your working area.
Sparks are created when you sand metals.
Caution, risk of fire. Avoid overheating the material to be machined and the sander.
Always empty the dust bag before taking a break in work.
In unfavourable
circumstances, such as flying sparks when sanding metals, the waste in the dust bag,
microfilter or paper sack (or in the extractor bag or filter) can ignite spontaneously. This
may happen if the waste is mixed with varnish, polyurethane or other chemicals and is
hot after a long period of working in particular.
Hold the workpiece securely.
It is safer to secure a workpiece in a clamping device or
vice than to hold it by hand.
Never use the power tool with a damaged mains cable. Do not grasp a cable that has
been damaged during working, nor pull on it to pull the mains plug from the socket.
Damaged cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
Replacement of the mains connection cable.
Should it be necessary to replace the
mains connecting cable, this should be done by the manufacturer or his agent, to
avoid safety hazards.
Wear safety gloves when swapping the accessories on the tool as they become hot if
used for some time.
Keep your hands away from the attachment.
Do not hold the underside of the
workpiece. You may be injured if you touch the attachment.
Only hold the tool by its insulated grips when you are carrying out work in which the
attachment might contact hidden current conductors or its own mains cable.
Contact
with a conducting lead can also energize metal parts of the tool and lead to an electric
shock.
