1.2 Specic safety regulations for bench sanders
• Place themachine on astable, level surface with plenty of room for manoeuvre.
• Think about how you are going to hold theworkpiece during theentire sanding
operation. Be wary of kickbacks and injuries. The workpiece could catch in
thesanding belt or disc and be ripped from your grasp.
• When using thesanding disc, always hold theworkpiece against theside of
thedisc moving downwards towards thetable. If you sand against theupward
side theworkpiece can easily be ripped from your grasp.
• The distance between thebelt/disc and work rest must never exceed 2 mm.
• To prevent therisk of fire; keep themachine free of sander dust. Sparks produced
when sanding metal can start fires. Prevent this by:
- Disconnecting any dust extractor suction hose that might be attached.
- First blowing off any dust particles on or in themachine.
- Removing any particles of metal before sanding wood again.
• Using thesander in adry place, indoors and out of therain. Make sure that
thework area is well illuminated.
• Position thesander in such away neither theuser nor any observer need stand in
line with thesanding belt or disc.
• Remove everything from theside table except theworkpiece and themitre guide.
