General safety instructions
Warning!

Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below
refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power
tool. Save these instructions.

1) Work area
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence

of flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite

the dust of 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 which earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified

plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

earthed or 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. Always use tool in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker device.

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 influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power

tools may result in serious personal injury.

b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as

dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before

plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 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 these devices

can reduce dust related hazards.

h. Use clamps or a vice to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both

hands to operate tool.

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 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 tools
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 and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool,
taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use

of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in hazardous
situation.

H. Do not leave power tools unattended while they are switched on. Always switch

off the tool and wait until it has come to a full standstill before leaving.

5) Service
a. Please use a qualified expert who uses original replacement parts to repair your

power tool. This will ensure proper functioning of the power tool.

b. Caution! The use of any accessories or additional tools other than those

recommended in this manual may lead to an increased risk of injury. Only use

original replacement parts.

c. Damaged switches must be replaced at a customer service repair centre. Do not

use power tools that cannot be switched on and off.

d. If the mains cable has been damaged, it must be replaced with a special mains

cable. These can be obtained from the manufacturer or the manufacturer's
customer service department. The mains cable may only be replaced by the

manufacturer, the manufacturer's customer service department or equally qualified
persons.

3. USE

Installing sandpaper

As the sole of your sander is provided with velcro, you can only use sandpaper which can
be fixed in the same way.

• Pull the mains plug out of the power-point

• Have the little gaps in the sandpaper coincide with the little gaps in the sole and push
on the paper for fixing it on the sole.

Applications

The sander can only be used for the subjoined applications.

• Sanding wooden surfaces

• Sanding metal surfaces

• Polishing.

Dust extraction

The sanding machine is provided with a connection for dust extraction to keep the working
surface clean. This is the opening at the back of the sander. You can connect a vacuum
cleaner onto this opening. Insert the adapter into the dust extraction opening of the
triangular sanding machine. When doing so, make sure that the adapter projections fall
into the recesses of the dust extraction opening. Turn the adapter 45 degrees clockwise.
You may now insert the vacuum cleaner tube into the adapter. The adapter is equipped
with an adapter ring, located in the back of the adapter. For deviant tube sizes, remove
the adapter ring from the adapter.
