Specific Safety Rules - Storch Spider Handbuch

Personal Safety
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Suitable safety equipment
such as a dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, a helmet, or hearing protection
will reduce the risk of injury.
Caution
Avoid accidental starting. Before connecting the device
to the mains, make sure the switch is set to "OFF".
Connecting tools whose switch is set to "ON" can lead
to accidents.
Remove any adjusting tools or spanners before swit-
ching the power tool on. A tool or spanner that is left
attached to a rotating part can cause personal injury.
Do not overestimate your capabilities. Keep a proper
footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery, or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
Careful Handling and Use of the "Spider" Wall and
Ceiling Sander
Do not overstrain the tool. Use the correct tool for the
particular application.
Do not use the device if the switch is
defective. A power tool that can no
longer be switched on and off is dan-
gerous and must be repaired.
Caution
Disconnect the plug before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the sander. This
safety measure will prevent the tool from starting
accidentally.
Keep unused sanders out of the reach of children.
Do not allow persons who are not familiar with the
sander or who have not read these instructions to use
it. Power tools are dangerous when used by inexpe-
rienced persons.
Take good care of the "Spider" wall and ceiling sander
and duly service it.
Before using the sander, inspect it for possible dama-
ges. Have damaged parts repaired before using the
tool. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
Only use the "Spider" wall and ceiling sander and its
accessories for the intended purpose.
Service
Only have your tool repaired by qualified staff at au-
thorised customer service centres and using original
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
-WARNING- To reduce the risk of injury, the user must
read the instruction manual.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. Keep your hands away from the rotating sanding
head at all times!
2. Prolonged inhalation of airborne dust from drywall
sanding may impair the respiratory function:
Always use a vacuum cleaner with a suitable
bag.
Always use a respiratory mask that is suitable and
approved for dust.
3. Sanding of LEAD-BASED paints is extremely to-
xic. Allow only specially trained professionals to
perform such tasks.
4. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times.
Do not overestimate your capabilities. Use proper
scaffolding.
5. Always wear appropriate safety equipment during
work.
6. Important: After sanding, switch the sander off
with the on/off switch and wait for the sanding pad
to stop completely before putting the tool down.
7. Never operate the sander near flammable solids,
liquids, or gases. Sparks from the commutator/
carbon brushes can cause fire or explosion.
