You have purchased a quality industrial product that is designed for high performance

and long service life. If correct use, safety and maintenance procedures are observed

this machine will last for many years.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

KOBE INDUSTRIAL POWER TOOLS

have been specifically designed to help you work SAFELY
and EFFICIENTLY. Your care and good judgement are the best protection against injury, but always ensure
that the appropriate safety equipment is worn. All possible hazards cannot be covered here, but the most
important ones have been highlighted.

PERSONAL PROTECTION

 Always wear eye protection that complies with a recognised standard (CSA or ANSI).

 Wear a mask or respirator when dust is generated.

 Some dust created by power sanding contains chemicals that may cause cancer, birth defects or other

harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from lead-based paint, and arsenic and chromium
from chemically treated lumber. To reduce exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area;
use approved safety equipment; and use dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.

 Keep bystanders out of the work area while operating the tool.

ALERTNESS

 Always stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating this tool.

 Never operate the sander when tired or under the influence of alcohol or prescription/non-prescription

drugs.

 Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair tied back.

ELECTROCUTION

 Always keep dry. Do not use in rain, snow or near water.

 Always place the Sander on a non conductive surface.

 Always switch the power off prior to plugging in the tool.

 Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local legislation. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug or modify it in any
way. Do not use adaptor plugs. If in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded, consult a
qualified electrician.

 Never touch with wet hands.

THE ENVIRONMENT

Always dispose of unwanted tools, accessories and packaging materials in an environmentally
friendly manner.

A comprehensive repair and
service facility is available
through your local Kobe agent for
all your electric tools.

This sander requires little
maintenance other than clean or
vacuum dust any from around the
motor housing, extraction port
and other sander parts.

Dress sanding surfaces and replace discs/belts as required - a worn belt or disc leads to inefficiency and
extra wear on the machine due to increased pressure required to do the job.
