WARNING! Read all safety warnings 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.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your electric (corded) power tool or battery­operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of ammable liquids,
gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
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 inuence
of drugs, alcohol or medication.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
Positec Australia Pty Limited Unit 15, 23 Narabang Way, Belrose 2085 NSW Australia www.jcb-tools.com Customer Helpline 1300 889 028
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 off­position 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 qualied repair person using
only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY POINTS FOR YOUR SANDER
1. Harmful/toxic dusts will arise from sanding e.g. lead painted surfaces, woods and metals. Contact with or inhalation of these dusts can endanger the health of operator and bystanders. Always use eye glasses and dust mask.
2. Hearing protection should be worn when using the sander.
3. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, because the belt may contact its own cord.
Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
4. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields when using the sander. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
5. Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
6. Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating.
7. When an extension cable is required you must ensure it has the correct ampere rating for your power tool and is in a safe electrical condition.
8. Ensure your mains supply voltage is same as indicated on the rating plate.
9. Your tool is double insulated for additional protection against a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
10. Always check walls, floors and ceilings to avoid hidden power cables and pipes.

11. After long working periods external metal parts and accessories could be hot.
12. If possible, ensure the work­piece is firmly clamped to prevent movement.
13. Your sander is a hand held tool, do not clamp your sander.
14. Before sanding, check the area is free of nails, screws, etc.
15. Never stop the sander by applying a force to the base plate.
16. Only use paper in good condition. Do not use torn or worn paper.
17. Do not sand material containing asbestos due to a health risk.
18. Do not sand lead based paint due to the risk of lead poisoning.
19. Do not eat or drink in the working area of the sander.
20. Do not allow people to enter the working area without wearing a dust mask.
21. Where possible, seal off the working area to contain the dust for later removal.
22. Your tool is designed for dry sanding only, not wet sanding.
23. Your tool is designed for general purpose light polishing of wood and metals.
24. Do not sand magnesium material due to the risk of fire.
WARNING: Some dust
particles created by power sanding, contain 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 upon 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 microscopic particles.
