WARNING!

► The noise emission levels specified in these

instructions have been measured in ac­cordance with the standardised measuring
procedure specified in ISO 15744 and can
be used to make equipment comparisons.
The noise emission values vary in accordance
with the use of the compressed air tool and
may be higher than the values specified in
these instructions in some cases. It is easy to
underestimate the noise emission load if the
compressed air tool is used regularly in a
certain manner.

NOTE

► For an accurate estimate of the noise emission

load during a certain working period, the
times during which the appliance is switched
off or is running but not actually being used
must also be taken into consideration. This
can significantly reduce the noise emission
load over the total working period.

WARNING!

General safety instruc­tions for compressed
air tools

WARNING!

► For multiple hazards: Please ensure that you

have read and understood the safety instruc­tions before adjusting, operating, repairing,
maintaining or replacement of accessories on
the polisher as well as before working in the
vicinity of the machine. Failure to do this can
result in serious bodily injury.

■ The sander or the polisher should only be ad-

justed, set or used by adequately qualified and
trained operators.

■ This sander or this polisher may not be modi-

fied. Modifications can reduce the effectiveness
of the safety measures and increase the risks for
the operator.

■ The safety instructions should not be lost –

give them to the operator.

■ Never use damaged sanders or polishers.

■ The appliance must be inspected regularly to

ensure that it is labelled with the required rated
values and markings given in this manual. The
user must contact the manufacturer to obtain
replacement labels if necessary.

Hazards caused by flying parts

■ If a workpiece or accessory or even part of the

machine tool itself breaks, parts can be flung
out at high speeds.

■ When operating the sander or the polisher or

when exchanging accessories on the appliance,
always wear eye protection. The degree of nec­essary protection must be evaluated separately
for each individual task.

■ Wear a safety helmet if working above head

height. In this case, the risks for others should
also be assessed.

■ You must ensure that the workpiece has been

securely fixed.

Hazards caused by entanglement

■ Suffocation, scalping and/or cut wounds

can occur if loose clothing, jewellery, necklaces,
hair or gloves are not kept away from the
machine and its accessories.

Hazards during operation

■ When using the machine, the operator's hands

can be subject to hazards such as cuts, grazing
and heat. Wear suitable gloves to protect your
hands.

■ The operator and maintenance personnel must

be physically capable of handling the size,
mass and power of the machine.

■ Hold the machine correctly: be ready to coun-

teract any normal or sudden movements - have
both hands ready.

■ Ensure that your body is balanced and that you

have a secure standing position.

■ Release the start/stop control in case of a

disruption to the electricity supply.

■ Use only the lubricants recommended by the

manufacturer.

■ Suitable safety goggles must be worn; wearing

protective gloves and safety clothing is recom­mended.

■ Check the grinding disc before every use. Do

not use if this is cracked, broken or has been
dropped.

■ Avoid direct contact with the movable grinding

disc, to avoid squashing or cutting your hands
or other parts of the body. Always wear suit­able gloves to protect your hands.

■ Never use the machine without an abrasive

attachment.

■ There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if the

machine is used on plastic and other non-con­ductive materials.

■ Dust and vapours created by the grinding and

sanding can cause a potentially explosive at­mosphere. Always use a dust extraction or sup­pression system suitable for the material being
worked.

Risks due to repetitive movements

■ When using a sander or polisher to perform

work-related activities, operators may experi­ence uncomfortable sensations in their hands
and arms, as well as in the neck and shoulders
or other parts of the body.

■ When using a sander or a polisher, the opera-

tor should adopt a comfortable posture whilst
ensuring a secure hold and avoiding awkward
postures or positions in which it is difficult to
maintain balance. The operator should change
positions during the course of long-lasting tasks.
This can be helpful in the prevention of discom­fort and fatigue.

■ If the operator notices symptoms such as persis-

tent or recurring illness, discomfort, throbbing,
pain, tingling, burning or stiffness, these indica­tions should not be ignored.
In this case, the operator should consult a suit­ably qualified physician.

Hazards caused by accessories

■ Disconnect the sander or the polisher from the

power before changing the tools or accessories.

■ Avoid direct contact with the machine tool during

and after use, since this can have heated up or
have become sharp.

■ Use only tools for sanders and polishers which

have been approved by the manufacturer of the
sander and polisher.

■ Cutting discs and machines for cutting may not

be used.

■ Check whether the maximum operating speed

of the tool (stitched buffs, abrasive belts, fibre
discs, etc.) is higher than that of the machine;

■ Self-adhesive grinding discs must be applied

concentrically on the mounting plate.

Hazards in the workplace

■ Slipping, tripping up and falling are the main

causes of injuries in the workplace. Take note

of surfaces which could have become slippery
through use of the machine, and also any trip­ping hazards caused by air or hydraulic hoses.

■ These sanders and polishers are not suitable for

use in explosive environments and are not insu­lated against contact with power sources.

■ Do not operate the appliance in the vicinity of

electric mains, gas pipelines etc. which could
pose a hazard if damaged by the machine.

Hazards caused by dust and vapours

■ The dust and vapours produced by using sand-

ers and polishers can be hazardous to health
(e.g. cause cancer, birth defects, asthma and/
or dermatitis); it is essential to carry out a risk
assessment in respect of these risks and to im­plement corresponding regulatory mechanisms.

■ The risk assessment should include all dust

caused by the use of the machine and the ex­isting dust that may be kicked up at the same
time.

■ The sander or polisher is to be operated and

maintained in accordance with the recommen­dations contained in this manual to keep the
release of dust and vapours to a minimum.

■ The exhaust air should be routed so that the

raising of dust in already dusty environments is
kept to a minimum.

■ If dusts or vapours are created, the main prior-

ity must be to control these at the site of their
release.

■ All inserts or accessories of the machine in-

tended for collecting, extracting or suppressing
airborne dust or vapours or should be used and
serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.

■ Consumables/machine tools should be se-

lected, maintained and replaced in accordance
with the recommendations in this guide in order
to avoid unnecessary intensification of dust or
vapour production.

■ Use a dust mask as per the instructions provided

by your employer or as required by health and
safety regulations.

Risks due to noise

■ Excessive noise levels in conjunction with insuf-

ficient hearing protection may lead to permanent
hearing damage, hearing loss and other prob­lems, such as tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling
or humming in your ears). It is essential that
a risk assessment is carried out with respect
to these risks and that appropriate regulatory
mechanisms are implemented.

■ Suitable regulatory mechanisms include meas-

ures such as the use of insulation materials
to avoid ringing noise occurring on the work­pieces.

■ Use ear protection as per the instructions

provided by your employer or as required by
health and safety regulations.

■ The sander or polisher is to be operated and

maintained in accordance with the recommen­dations contained in this manual to reduce any
unnecessary increase of the noise levels.

■ Consumables/machine tools should be se-

lected, maintained and replaced in accordance
with the recommendations in this guide in order
to avoid unnecessary increase of the noise
levels.

■ If the sander or polisher is equipped with a

silencer, always ensure that this in its place and
is operational while the machine is in operation.

Risks due to vibrations

■ Vibrations can damage the nerves and cause

malfunctions to the blood circulation in the
hands and arms.

■ When working in a cold environment, wear

warm clothing and keep your hands warm and
dry.

■ If you notice numbness, tingling or pain in your

fingers or hands or notice that the skin of your
fingers or hands has become pale, stop work­ing with the sander or the polisher, inform your
employer and consult a doctor.

■ The sander or polisher is to be operated and

maintained in accordance with the recommen­dations contained in this manual to reduce any
unnecessary increase of the vibrations.

■ Hold the machine securely but not too firmly

while maintaining the necessary hand-reaction
force, as the vibration risk generally increases
the harder the machine is held.

Additional safety instructions for
pneumatic machines

■ Compressed air can cause serious injury.

– Ensure that the air supply is switched off,

the hose is not under pressure, that the air
supply has been shut off and that the
machine is disconnected from the air supply
when not in use, and also before exchang­ing accessories or carrying out repairs.

– Never aim the airflow towards yourself

or any other person.

■ Thrashing hoses can cause serious injury. There-

fore, always check that the hoses and their fix­ings are not damaged or have not come loose.
