WARNING!
and instructions!
Failure to observe the safety advice and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.
KEEP ALL THE SAFETY ADVICE AND INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE! THE TERM “ELECTRICAL TOOL” USED
IN THE SAFETY ADVICE REFERS TO ELECTRICAL
TOOLS POWERED BY MAINS ELECTRICITY (BY
MEANS OF A MAINS LEAD) AND ELECTRICAL
TOOLS POWERED BY RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES (WITHOUT A MAINS LEAD).
Read all the safety advice
1. Workplace safety
a) Keep your working area clean and
well lit. Untidy or poorly lit working areas
can lead to accidents.
b)
Do not work with the device
in potentially explosive environments in which there are
inflammable liquids, gases or dusts.
Electrical power tools create sparks, which can
ignite dusts or fumes.
c)
Keep children and other peo-
ple away while you are operating the electrical tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the device.
2. Electrical safety
Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment
of the vibration loads experienced during a particular period of working, you should also take into
account the intervening periods of time when the
device is switched off or is running but is not actually in use. This can result in a much lower vibration
load over the whole of the period of working.
To avoid danger to life from
electric shock:
a)
The mains plug on the device must match
the mains socket. The plug must not
be modified in any way. Do not use
an adapter plug with devices fitted
with a protective earth. Unmodified
plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of
electric shock.
7 GB/IE/CY

b) Avoid touching earthed surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrigerators with any part of your body.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed
c) Keep the device away from
rain or moisture. Water entering
an electrical device increases the

for use outdoors. The use of an extension
cable suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.
for protection if operating the electrical power tool in a moist environment
is unavoidable. The use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
.
c) Avoid unintentional operation of the
device. Check that the electrical power tool is switched off before you connect it to the mains, pick it up or carry
it. Accidents can happen if you carry the de-
vice with your finger on the ON / OFF switch or
with the device switched on.
d) Remove any setting tools or spanners
before you switch the device on. A tool
or spanner left attached to a rotating part of a
device can lead to injury.
e) Avoid placing your body in an unnat-
ural position. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. By doing this
you will be in a better position to control the
device in unforeseen circumstances.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves clear of moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long
hair can become trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuum dust extraction and collection
devices are fitted do not forget to
that they are properly connected
correctly used. The use of these devices re-
duces the hazard presented by dust.
4.
Careful handling and use of
check
and
electrical power tools
3. Personal safety
a) Remain alert at all times, watch what
you are doing and always proceed
with caution. Do not use the device if
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. One mo-
ment of carelessness when using the device
can lead to serious injury.
b)
personal protective equipment such as dust
8 GB/IE/CY
Wear personal protective
equipment and always wear
safety glasses. The wearing of
masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmets or
ear protectors, appropriate to the type of electrical power tool used and work undertaken,
reduces the risk of injury.
a) Do not overload the device. Always
use an electrical power tool that is
intended for the task you are undertaking. By using the right electrical power
tool for the job you will work more safely and
achieve a better result.
b) Do not use an electrical power tool if
its switch is defective. An electrical power
tool that can no longer be switched on and off
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Pull the mains plug from the socket
before you make any adjustments to
the device, change accessories or
when the device is put away. This pre-
caution is intended to prevent you from unintentionally starting the device.
Page 8
General safety advice for electrical power tools / Preparing for use
d) When not in use always ensure that
electrical power tools are kept out of
reach of children. Do not let anyone use
the device if he or she is not familiar
with it or has not read the instructions
and advice. Electrical power tools are danger-
ous
when they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Look after the device carefully. Check
that moving parts are working properly and move freely. Check for any
parts that are broken or damaged
enough to detrimentally affect the
functioning of the device. Have damaged parts repaired before you use
the device. Many accidents have their ori-
gins in poorly maintained electrical power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to jam and are
easier to control.
g) Use the electrical power tool, accesso-
ries, inserted tools etc. in accordance
with these instructions and advice, and
the stipulations drawn up for this particular type of device. In doing this,
take into account the working conditions and the task in hand. The use of
electrical power tools for purposes other than
those intended can lead to dangerous situations.
Safety advice for
belt sanders
J
DANGER OF FIRE FROM FLYING SPARKS!
Sanding metal creates flying sparks. For this
reason, always make sure that nobody is placed
in any danger and that there are no inflammable
materials near the working area.
J When undertaking prolonged sanding of
wood, and in particular when working on materials that give rise to dusts that are hazardous
to health, the sander must be connected to a
suitable external dust extraction device.
J Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when
working on plastic, paint, varnish etc.
J The belt sander is designed for the dry sanding
of large surfaces of wood, plastic, metal and
plaster and painted surfaces. The device is to
be used for dry sanding only.
J Do not sand materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
WARNING!
Sanding paints containing lead, some types of
wood and metal for example may give rise to
hazardous or poisonous dusts and represents a
risk to the health of the person operating the
device and to anyone near the work area.
POISONOUS DUSTS!
Wear safety glasses and a dust
protection mask!
J Securely support the workpiece. Use clamps or
a vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much
safer than holding it with your hand.
J Never support yourself by placing your hands
near or in front of the device or the workpiece
surface. A slip can result in injury.
J If a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains
plug immediately out of the mains socket.
J Always work with the mains lead leading
away from the rear of the device.
J Avoid contact with the moving sanding belt.
J Do not work on moistened materials or damp
surfaces.
J Always switch on the device before placing it
against the workpiece. After sanding, lift the device from the workpiece before switching it off.
J When working always hold the device securely
with both hands (see Fig. E). Always keep proper footing and balance.
J Switch the device off and allow it to come to
a complete standstill before you put it down.
J When taking a break from your work, before
carrying out any tasks on the device itself (e.g.
changing the sanding belt) and when you are
not using the device, always pull the mains
plug out of the mains socket.
Q
Preparing for use
Take note of the mains voltage. The mains voltage
at the mains socket must match that shown on the
rating plate on the device. Devices marked with
230 V can also be operated at 220 V.

Check the sanding belt regularly and if necessary re-adjust it using the adjuster screw
Q
Advice on use
Light sanding pressure is enough:
j Apply light sanding pressure only. The weight
of the belt sander alone is adequate to produce good sanding results. By adopting this
approach you will also prolong the life of your
sanding belts and obtain a smoother workpiece surface.
Sanding and surfaces:
The sanding output and the quality of the surface
finish obtained are determined by the belt speed
and the grade of grit on the sanding belt (see the
section on “Selecting the correct rotational speed
and sanding belt”).

Sanding procedure:
j With the sander switched on, bring it into con-
tact with the workpiece and move it forward
carefully. Work in parallel and overlapping
widths. Always work in the direction of the grain
to avoid undesirable transverse sanding marks.
After sanding always lift the device from the
workpiece before switching it off.
Q
Vacuum dust extraction
WARNING!
the danger of fire when working with electrical devices that have a dustbox or can be connected to a
vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the
wood dust in the dust collection box (or in the vacuum‘s dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a result of
flying sparks generated when abrading metals or
metal objects left in wood. This can happen particularly if the wood dust is mixed with paint residue
or other chemicals and the abraded particles are
hot from prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must
empty the device’s dust collection box and the vacuum cleaner’s dust bag before taking a break or
stopping work and always avoid overheating of the
abraded particles and the device.
Dust extraction with dust box:
j Push the dust box
Dismantle / remove the dust box:
j Press the release button
and withdraw it towards the rear of the device.
