General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or batteryoperated (cordless) power tool.
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the

and all instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.

cause you to lose control.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.

conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.

the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.

ENGLISH
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. 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.
g) If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional Specifi c Safety Rules for
Sanders
WARNING: Contact with or inhalation
of dusts arising from sanding
applications may endanger the health of
the operator and possible bystanders.
Wear a dust mask specifically designed
for protection against toxic dust and
fumes and ensure that persons within
or entering the work area are also
protected.
WARNING: Use this tool in a well-
ventilated area when sanding ferrous
metals. Do not operate the tool near
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Sparks or hot particles from sanding
or arcing motor brushes may ignite
combustible materials.

ENGLISH
WARNING: We recommend the use of
a residual current device with a residual
current rating of 30mA or less.
Sanding Paint
WARNING: Observe the applicable
regulations for sanding paint. Pay
special attention to the following:
• Whenever possible, use a vacuum extractor
for dust collection.
• Take special care when sanding paint which
is possibly lead based:
– Do not let children or pregnant women
enter the work area.
– All persons entering the work area should
wear a mask specially designed for
protection against lead paint dust and
fumes.
– Do not eat, drink or smoke in the
work area.
• Dispose of dust particles and any other
removal debris safely.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety
regulations and the implementation of safety
devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided.
These are:
– Impairment of hearing.
– Risk of personal injury due flying particles.
– Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
– Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.

Mains Plug Replacement
(Middle East and Africa)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in
the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good
quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 13 A.
WARNING: No connection is to be

Using an Extension Cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved
3–core extension cable suitable for the power input
of this tool (see Technical Data).The minimum
conductor size is 1.5 mm2; the maximum length
is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable
completely.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
injury, turn unit off and disconnect
machine from power source before
installing and removing accessories,
before adjusting or changing setups or when making repairs. Be sure
the trigger switch is in the OFF position.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Fitting Sanding Discs (fi g. 2)
The tool uses 125 mm (5") hook and loop sanding
discs with an 8 hole dust extraction pattern.
1. Place the tool on a table, sanding pad (f) up.
2. Place the sanding disc (i) directly on top of the
sanding pad.
3. Hold the sanding pad with one hand and align
the dust extraction holes.
4. Press the disc firmly onto the sanding pad.
Setting the Electronic Speed Control
Dial (fi g. 1)
DWE6423
The speed is infinitely variable from 8,000–12,000
min-1 using the electronic speed control dial (b).
Turn the electronic speed control dial to the required
level. The correct setting, however, is a matter of
experience.
Generally, harder materials require a higher setting.
Dust Extraction (fi g. 3, 4)
WARNING: Since woodworking with a
