Dangerous environment
• Do not use power tools in damp or wet conditions, or expose them to
rain. Provide adequate surrounding work space and keep area well lit.
Do not use power tools where there is a risk of explosion or fire from
combustible material, flammable liquids, flammable gases, or dust of
an explosive nature. When using power tools avoid contact with any
earthed items such as pipes, radiators, cookers, refrigerators, metal
baths and taps.
Protect yourself from vibration
• Hand held power tools may produce vibration. Vibration can cause
disease. Gloves to keep the operator warm may help to maintain good
blood circulation in the fingers. Hand held tools should not be used for
long periods without a break.
Maintain your power tool
• Ensure all ventilation holes are kept clear at all times. Overheating and
fire may otherwise result.
Always disconnect
• Before changing fittings or accessories, always ensure that your tool is
disconnected from the power source.
Switch off before connecting
• Ensure that the power tool is switched off before connecting to the power
source. If the power tool stops unexpectedly, turn the power switch to off.
Do not abuse the power cord
• Be sure your cable or extension cable is in good condition. Always have
a damaged cable or extension cable replaced at an authorised service
centre before using it. Never yank or pull the cable to disconnect it from
the power socket. Never carry your tool by its cable. Keep the cable away
from damp, heat, oil, solvents, and sharp edges.
Don't leave the tool running unattended
• Always wait until your tool has completely stopped functioning, and has
been unplugged, before leaving it.
Sanding Tool Safety
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment. A dust mask (suitable for
very fine particulates), safety goggles, and ear defenders should be worn.
• It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people who may be
in the vicinity of the work area are also equipped with suitable personal
protective equipment.
• Take special care when sanding some woods (such as beech, oak,
mahogany, & teak), as the dust produced is toxic, and can cause extreme
reactions in some people.
• Do not sand magnesium, or alloys containing a high percentage of
magnesium.
• Be aware of paint finishes or treatments that may have been applied to
the material that is being sanded. Many treatments can create dust that
is toxic, or otherwise harmful. If working on a building constructed prior
to 1960, there is an increased chance of encountering lead based paints.
• The dust produced when sanding lead based paints is particularly
hazardous to children, pregnant women, and people with high blood
pressure. Do not allow these people near to the work area, even if
wearing appropriate personal protective equipment.
• Whenever possible, use a vacuum dust extraction system to control dust
and waste.
• Be especially careful when using a machine for both wood and metal
sanding. Sparks from metal can easily ignite wood dust. Always clean
your machine thoroughly to reduce the risk of fire.
• Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area.
• Work surfaces, and sandpaper can become very hot during use. If there
is evidence of burning (smoke or ash), from the work surface, stop and
allow the material to cool. Do not touch work surface or sandpaper until

they have had time to cool.
• Always unplug the sander from the mains power supply before changing
or replacing sandpaper.
Polisher Safety
• Never use this polisher as an angle grinder.
• Always read and understand all information supplied with polishing
pastes before use.
• Do not smoke, eat, or drink when using this polisher.
• Never attach any accessory with a maximum speed lower than the no
load speed of the machine.
