GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING. Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failing to follow the warnings and instructions can result in an electric shock, a fire and/or a serious injury.
Keep all warnings and all instructions to be able to refer to them later on.
The term “tool” in the warnings refers to your electrical mains powered tool (with power cord) or your battery operated tool (without power cord).
1 Safety of the work area
a) Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate electric tools in explosive atmospheres, for example in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Electric tools create sparks that can ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders a way while operating the tool. Distractio ns can cause you to lose control of the tool.
2 Electrical safety a) The electric tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use adapters with earthed (grounded) tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of
electric shock. b) Avoid any body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or groun ded. c) Do not expose tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a tool will increase the risk of electrical shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the tool. Keep the cord away from heat, lubricants, edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When using a tool outside, use an extension cable suitable for outside use. Use of a cord suitable for outside use reduces the risk of electric sho ck. f) If use of a tool in a humid location is unavoidable, use a supply protected by a residual current
differential device (RCD). The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electri c sho ck.
3 Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the tool. Do not use the tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. One moment of
carelessness while using a tool can result in serious personal injury. b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, a hard hat and hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Avoid uninten tional starting. Make sure that the switch is in the off position before plugging the tool into the mains and/or fitting the batteries, picking it up or carrying it. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools with the switch in the on position is a cause of accidents. d) Remove any adjustment key before operating the tool. A key left attached to a rotating part of the tool can result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep a proper position and balance at all times. This enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress in a suitable manner. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection equipment, make sure that they are connected and used correctly. Using dust collectors can reduce the dust-related risks.

4 Use and maintenance of the tool
a) Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the work better and safer in the conditions for which it was manufactured. b) Do not use the tool if the switch does not make it possible to change from the operating conditio n to stop and vice versa. Any tool which cannot be controlled by the switch is dangerous and should be repaired. c) Disconnect the power cord before any adjustment, changing an accessory or before storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. d) Keep idle tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these instructions to operate it. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain the tool. Check that there is no misalignment or obstruction of the moving parts, broken
parts or any other condition that could affect the operation of the tool. In the event of damage, have the tool repaired before using it. Many accidents are due to badly maintained tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the tool, accessories and blades etc., in accordance with these instructions, while taking into account the work conditions and the work to be done. The use of the tool for operations other than those intended could result in dangerous situations.
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
SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. This tool is not suitable for wet sanding. Never use the water duri ng working! And never use the sanding
sheet suitable wet sanding.
2. Never use the same sanding sheet for wood and metal. Please make sure the sanding sheet can be used in
working price.
3. Do not touch the moving sanding sheet.
4. Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding sheets.
5. Do not work on materials containing asbestos. Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
6. Secure the work piece (a work piece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than
by hand).
7. Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
8. Fully unwind extension cords to avoid potential overheating.
9. When an extension cord is required, please ensure it has the correct ampere rating for the power tool and
that it is in a safe electrical condition.
10. Ensure the supply voltage is same as rating voltage.
11. The tool is double insulated for additional protection against a possible electrical insulation failure within
the tool.
WARNING
When sanding wood or other flammability materials: never use the lighter or spark plug! The dust may
be explosive.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNING FOR CONSTRUCTION DUST
The updated Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 1st October 2012 now also targets to reduce the risks associated with silica, wood and gypsum dusts. Construction workers are one of the at-risk group s wit hin this be ca use of the du st that they breathe: silica d ust is not just a nuisance; it is a real risk to your lungs!
Silica is a natural mineral present in large amounts in things like sand, sandstone and granite. It is also commonly found in many construction materials such as concrete and mortar. The silica is broken into very fine dust (also known as Respirable Crystalline Silica or RCS) during many common tasks such as cutting,

drilling and grinding. Breathing in very fine particles of crystalline silica can lead to the development of: Lung cancer Silicosis Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD))
And breathing in fine particles of wood dust can lead to the development of Asthma The risk of lung disease is linked to people who regularly breathe construction dust over a period of time, not
on the odd occasion. To protect the lung, the COSHH Regulations sets a limit on the amount of these dusts that you can breathe (called a Workplace Exposure Limit or WEL) when average d over a normal working d ay. These limits are not a large amount of dust: when compared to a penny it is tiny – like a small pinch of salt: This limit is the legal maximum; the most you can breathe after the right controls have been used.

WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains Chemicals. Known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead-based paints,
- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
- Work in a well-ventilated area.
- work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.

NOISE INFORMATION
Wear hearing protection!
Measured sound values determined according to EN 60745. The noise figures quoted are emission levels and are not necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a correlation between the emission and exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine wh ether or not further precautions are required. Factors that influence the actual level of exposure of work-force include the characteristics of the work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the number of machines and other adjacent processes, and the length of time for which an operator is exposed to the noise. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country . This inform ation, however, will enable the user of the machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
VIBRATION
The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive has been brought in to help reduce hand arm vibration syndrome injuries to power tool users. The directive requires power tool manufacturers and suppliers to provide indicative vibration test results to enable users to make informed decisions as to the period of time a power tool can be used safely on a daily basis and the choice of tool. Further advice can be found at www . hse.gov .uk
Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determin ed according to EN 60745:
Vibration emission value ah = 4.398 m/s2 Normal sanding operation Uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s
2
The declared vibration emission value should be used as a minimum level and should be used with the current guidance on vibration.
The declared vibration emission been measured in a ccordance wit h a st andardised test st ated above and may be used to compare one tool with another tool. The declared vibration emissio n value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING!
The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependent on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is being used and the materials being sanding. The tool being in good condition and well maintained The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles. And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
While working with this power tool, hand/arm vibrations occur. Adopt the correct working pract i ces in order to reduce the exposure to vibration.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.
WARNING!
Identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all part s of the operating cycle su ch as the times when the tool is swit ched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).
