GENERAL SAFETY RULES
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.
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. The term “power tool”
in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfac-
es such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, 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.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an ex-
tension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
6. If operating a power tool in a damp location is un-
avoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. 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 inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a respiratory mask, non-skid safety shoes and hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce the risk of
personal injury.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position 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
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
4. 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.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
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.
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. The term “power tool”
in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
7. 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.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
7. 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.
8. Use clamps to secure your workpiece to a stable
surface. Holding a workpiece by hand or using your
body to support it may lead to loss of control.
9. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
SERVICE
1. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities may contain
chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other
masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area with
approved safety equipment such as dust masks specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR SPINDLE SANDER
WARNING! Do not operate the power tool until you have read and understood the following instructions and
the warning labels.
SANDER RULES
1. Two-hand operation. This machine requires the use
of two hands to ensure safe operation.
2. Maintain a stable stance. Ensure proper balance
when using the tool. Do not stand on ladders and step
ladders during operation. If the machine is to be used on
a higher and otherwise unreachable surface, a suitable
and stable platform or scaffold tower with hand rails and
kick boards should be used.
3. Preparing the workpiece. Nails, staples, knots, or
other imperfections in workpiece can be dislodged and
thrown into operator or bystanders at a high rate of
speed, or cause damage to sanding sleeves or spindle.
Never sand stock that has embedded foreign objects or
questionable imperfections.
4. Securing the workpiece. Never hold the workpiece in
your hand or across your legs when using the spindle
sander in the handheld mode. Use clamps or vises to
secure workpiece. This protects hands and frees both of
them to operate tool.
5. Checking the power cord. Make sure that the power
cord is prevented from coming into contact with the machine or getting caught up on other objects, preventing
completion of the sanding pass.
8. Spindle Direction. Feeding workpiece / tool incorrectly can cause it to jump or kick back, causing a loss
of control or contact injury. To reduce these risks, feed
workpiece / tool against direction of spindle rotation and
never introduce tapered or pointed stock with point facing direction of spindle rotation.
9. Sanding Dust. Sanding creates large amounts of dust
and flying chips that can lead to eye injury or serious
respiratory illness. Reduce your risk by always wearing
approved eye and respiratory protection and dust collection when using sander.
10. Sanding Sleeve Condition. Worn or damaged sanding sleeves can tear apart, resulting in injury due to loss
of workpiece / tool control. Replace worn or damaged
sanding sleeves promptly.
11. Base Gap. The gap between tool base and oscillating
drum creates a pinch point. Always use largest diameter
of drum possible to minimize this gap.
12. Setting down the sander. Wait for the spindle to
stop before setting the tool down. An exposed, rotating
spindle may engage the surface, leading to possible loss
of control and serious injury. Always lay the sander on
its side to prevent accidents if the machine is inadvertently started.
6. Holding the sander. Keep handles and hands dry,
clean, and free from oil and grease. Rotating sanding
spindles can remove a large amount of flesh in a few
seconds. Always keep hands away from spindle during
operation. Never touch moving spindle on purpose. Use
brush to clean sander of sawdust and chips.
7. Feeding workpiece. Forcefully jamming workpiece /
tool against sanding surface may cause it to kick back at
operator or damage machine. Allow spindle to reach full
speed. Firmly hold workpiece with both hands and ease
it against spindle using light pressure.
6
13. Unplug the sander. Ensure the sander is disconnect-
ed from the main supply before servicing, lubricating,
making adjustments, changing accessories, or replacing
sanding belts. Accidental start-ups may occur if the tool
is plugged in during an accessory change. Before plugging the tool back in, check that the trigger is OFF.
Page 7
SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR SPINDLE SANDER
WARNING! Extreme caution required when sanding paint. The dust residue may contain LEAD, which is
poisonous. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage, to
which young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable. Any pre-1960s building may have paint containing
lead on wood or metal surfaces that has since been covered with additional layers of paint. Lead-based paints
should only be removed by a professional and should not be removed using a sander. If you suspect that paint
on surfaces contains lead, please seek professional advice.
WARNING! Use a face mask and dust collection. Some wood and wood type products, such as MDF (Me-
dium Density Fiberboard), can produce dust that can be hazardous to your health. We recommend the use of a
dust extraction system and an approved face mask with replaceable filters when using this machine.
REDUCING KICKBACK
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory, which in turn causes the uncontrolled
power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the
accessory’s rotation at the point of binding.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking the proper precautions as given below.
1. Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces.
Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum
control over kickback or torque reaction during start-up.
The operator can control kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
2. Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
The accessory may kick back over your hand.
3. Do not position your body in the area where the power
tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel
the tool in the direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
VIBRATION SAFETY
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or longterm exposure to vibration may cause temporary
or permanent physical injury, particularly to the
hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of
vibration-related injuries:
1. First, be examined by a doctor and then have
regular medical check-ups to ensure medical
problems are not being caused or worsened from
using this tool. People who are pregnant, have
impaired blood circulation to the hand, past hand
injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud’s disease should NOT use this tool.
2. If you feel any symptoms related to vibration
(such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue
fingers), stop working and seek medical advice as
soon as possible.
3. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the
blood supply to the hands and fingers, increasing
the risk of vibration-related injury.
4. Wear suitable work gloves to reduce the effects
of vibration.
4. Use special care when working corners, sharp edges,
etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag
the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback
5. Hold the tool firmly enough to keep safe control
of it, but NOT too tightly. The risk associated with
vibration is increased when the gripping force is
high. Let the tool do the work.
6. Take vibration-free breaks during each day of
work.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
DOUBLE-INSULATED TOOLS
The tool’s electrical system is double-insulated where two systems of insulation are provided. This
eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. Double-insulated tools do not need
to be grounded, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. All exposed metal parts
are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.
IMPORTANT: Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by qualified service personnel using identical replacement parts. Always use original factory
replacement parts when servicing.
1. Polarized Plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet. Do not modify the machine plug
or the extension cord in any way.
2. Ground fault circuit interrupter protection (GFCI) should be provided on the circuit or outlet used for this power
tool to reduce the risk of electric shock.
3. Service and repair. To avoid danger, electrical appliances must only be repaired by a qualified service technician
using original replacement parts.
GUIDELINES AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENSION CORDS
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows
the correct size to be used according to cord length and ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier cord. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
REQUIRED GAUGE FOR EXTENSION CORDS
AMPERAGE
25 ft. 50 ft. 100 ft. 150 ft.
5A 16 gauge 16 gauge 14 gauge 12 gauge
1. Examine extension cord before use. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
2. Do not abuse extension cord. Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect by pulling on
plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
3. Use a separate electrical circuit for your tool. This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge wire and should be
protected with a 15A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in
the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running
at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
