Please read theentire instruction manual before use and save it for future reference.
Wereserve theright for any errors in text or images and for making any necessary
technical changes to this document. Ifyou should have any questions concerning
technical problems please contact our Customer Services.
Safety
Warning! Readall theinstructions. Failureto adhere to thefollowing instructions may
lead to electric shocks, fires and/or serious injury. Theterm “power tools” in thewarning
text below refers to your handheld mains operated or battery operated tool.
1) The work area
a) Keep thework area clean and well illuminated. Clutteredand poorly lit areas
invite accidents.
b) Do not use power tools in explosive environments, e.g. near flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Powertools generate sparks that can easily ignite dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and other bystanders away from thearea where you are using
thepower tool. Distractionscan cause you to lose your concentration and control.
2) Electrical safety
a) The power tool’s plug must fit correctly into thewall socket. Nevermodify
theplug in any way. Neveruse an adaptor together with earthed power tools.
Unmodifiedplugs and suitable wall sockets decrease therisk of electric shock.
b) Avoid physical contact with earthed objects, such as pipes, radiators, ovens
or refrigerators. Thereis an increased risk of receiving an electrical shock if your
body is earthed.
c) Do not expose thepower tool to rain or other wet conditions. Ifwater gets
inside apower tool it increases therisk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse thelead. Neveruse thelead to carry thetool or pull theplug
from thewall socket. Keepthe lead away from heat, oil, sharp edges and
movable parts. Damagedor tangled leads increase therisk of electric shock.
e) When using power tools outdoors, use an extension lead that is suitable
for this purpose. Useof an extension lead designed for outdoor use decreases
therisk for electric shock.
f) If for some reason you must use apower tool in awet environment, always
connect it to themains via an earth-fault circuit breaker such as an RCD
(residual current device). Usingan RCD significantly reduces thechances of you
receiving an electric shock.

3) Personal safety
a) Pay attention to your actions and use common sense when using power
tools. Neveruse power tools if you are tired or under theinfluence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. Onemoment of inattention while using apower tool may
result in serious injury.
b) Use protective equipment. Alwayswear safety glasses. Usingprotective
clothing such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, helmets and ear defenders
when needed decreases therisk of injury.
c) Avoid accidental starts. Makesure that thepower switch is set to OFF before
plugging thetool into awall socket. Nevercarry apower tool with your finger on
thetrigger and never connect thepower tool to awall socket when theswitch is
set to ON, since it may result in injury.
d) Remove all service tools/keys before switching on thepower tool. Aservice
tool left on amoving part of thepower tool may result in injury.
e) Do not overreach. Makesure you stand steady and well balanced at all times.
Thiswill allow you to have more control in unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable attire. Donot wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Keephair,
clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose-fitting clothes, jewellery or
long hair could become caught in moving parts.
g) If equipment for dust extraction or collection is available, make sure that it is
connected and used properly. Usingtechnical aids may decrease dust related
hazards.
4) Proper use and maintenance of your power tool
a) Do not force thepower tool. Usea power tool suitable for thework you are
about to perform. Theproper power tool will perform thetask better and safer if
used at thecorrect feed rate.
b) Never use thepower tool if thepower switch does not switch thetool on and
off properly. Allpower tools that cannot be controlled by thepower switch are
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Unplug thelead from thewall socket before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or storing thepower tool. Theseprecautions reduce
therisk of thepower tool starting unexpectedly.
d) Store any power tools that are not being used out of children’s reach.
Donotallow people who are unfamiliar with thetool or its functions to
operate thetool. Powertools can be dangerous if they fall into thehands of
inexperienced users.
e) Maintaining power tools. Checkfor any incorrect settings, parts that
catch, broken parts or anything else which may cause thepower tool
to malfunction. Ifsomething is damaged it must be repaired before use.
Manyaccidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep tools sharp and clean. Properlymaintained cutting tools with sharp blades
are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
g) Use thepower tool, accessories and similar according to theinstructions
and in an appropriate way suitable for thetype of power tool used. Alsotake
into consideration your work environment and thetype of work to be done.
Usingthe power tool for apurpose other than that for which it is intended could
result in adangerous situation.
5) Specific safety regulations for sheet sanders
a) Wear adust mask whenever sanding and adust extractor connected to
themachine should also be used wherever possible.
b) Extra care should be taken when sanding paint containing lead or when
sanding wood, metal, or other material which could produce toxic dust.
Makesure that anyone in thevicinity of thework area is also protected from
dust and toxins.
c) Wood dust can be very flammable when mixed with air.
6) Service
a) Repairs and service should only be performed by qualified tradesmen, and
only with original spare parts.
Care and maintenance
Clean up any excess dust with avacuum cleaner.
Note: The dust caused by sanding is harmful to your health and can be
very flammable when mixed with air.

Follow local ordinances when disposing of this product.
Ifyou are unsure how to proceed, contact your local authority.
