Sheet sander safety warnings

Wear hearing protection during continuous
operation. Exposure to noise can cause hear-
ing loss.
During operation provide eye protection to
prevent eyes from exposure to flying par-
ticles. Wear goggles.
Take protective measures against inhala-
tion of dust. Some materials can contain
toxic ingredients. Wear a dust mask and work
with dust/chip extraction when connectable.
▪ Do not process materials containing asbestos. Asbes-
tos is considered carcinogenic.
▪ Use of protective gloves is recommended.
WARNING:
Before connecting a tool to a
power source be sure that the voltage supply is the
same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool.
▪ A power source with a voltage greater than that speci-
fied for the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
as well as damage to the tool.
▪ If in doubt, do not plug in the tool.
▪ Using a power source with a voltage less than the
nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
▪ Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential
overheating.
▪ When an extension cable is required, you must en-
sure that it has the right ampere rating for your power
tool and it is in safe electrical condition.
WARNING:
Always switch off and unplug
the power tool prior to any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance or in case of mains drop-out.
▪ Use the power tool for dry sanding only.
▪ Use clamps or a vice to secure your work whenever
possible.
▪ Use perforated hook-and-loop sandpaper with the
prescribed dimensions.
▪ A sanding sheet that has been used for metal should
not be used for other materials.
▪ Never switch on the orbital sander under load and
leave it down only after final arrest.
▪ Do not overload the machine: operate with moderate
pressure. Overloading occurs when you apply exces-
sive pressure, resulting in decrease of motor speed,
which may cause inefficient operation and possible
fault of the motor.
Original instructions
▪ Keep work area clean. Blends of materials are par-
ticularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or
explode.
▪ The presence of harmful toxic dust, separated during
processing materials containing lead, quartz (Silicium
Dioxide), touching or inhaling it may be hazardous to
the health of the operator or observers.
▪ Always keep the cord away from the working area of
the power tool.
▪ Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do
not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug
when the cable is damaged while operating. Dam-
aged cables increase the risk of electric shock.
▪ The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
