STORING UP
We advice you to store up the machine without removing it from the original packing. This way you
can make a column of three packings maximum one above the other.
If the machine is removed from the original packing and is not used for some time it is necessary to
avoid that wheels and disk remains in strict contact with the floor. Make use of two stands 20 mm
high at least to lay the machine on being careful that contact takes place on the floor directly.
Store up the machine in a dry place, if you don’t, damages might occur to the machine.
Storage temperature from – 20 °C to 50 °C.
CARRYING THE MACHINE
1 Make sure that the power supply cable is disconnected from the mains and the machine.
2 Always carry the sander using both handles. Protect the sanding disc with an abrasive disc
and make sure the abrasive disc fixing screw is screwed down well. When transporting the
machine in a vehicle, always make sure the sander is well tied and cannot move. Since the
machine is heavy, lift and carry it with care

CAUTION: This machine only works with the voltage and frequency shown on the
machine plate. Before connecting the cable to the power supply grid, make
sure that the voltage and frequency available are correct.
DANGER: Exposing the machine to water or rain leads to a risk of electrocution. Keep
the machine in a dry building.
DANGER: Incorrect mains connection of the machine leads to a risk of electrocution.
In order to prevent possible electric shocks, always use a three-wire electric
system connected to an electrical earth. For maximum protection against
electric shocks, use a circuit protected with a differential earth fault
interrupter.
DANGER: Do not try to insert a two-pin plug into a socket or connector which does
not have two holes. If the plug does not fit the socket, consult an authorized
electrician.
DANGER: Using the machine with a damaged plug or power supply cable may lead to
electrocution. If cables or plugs are worn out or damaged in any way, have
them replaced by an electrician or authorized service staff.
CABLES, EXTENSIONS AND PLUGS
The maximum recommended length of the cable is 7 m; for lengths exceeding 7 m use cables with
larger cross- section.
DANGER If the machine is used with cables of insufficient cross-section and/or
excessive length, damages to people and/or things may occur.
MACHINE WITH SINGLE-PHASE MOTOR 230/240V∼
∼∼
∼50Hz
Only use approved two-conductors cables.
For Europe, the power supply cable must be of HAR approved type, namely HO5VV-F2x1.5 mm2,

RESPECT OF PROTECTIONS AND DANGER SIGNALS
DANGER: Use of the machine before it is completely assembled may cause injuries to
people and/or damage to things. Do not use a machine which is not
completely assembled. Keep all fastenings closed. Adjust the machine
according to specifications.
DANGER: Injuries or damages may be caused by using the sander without its guards
and covers in place. Always make sure that all guards and covers are in
their places and well attached.
DANGER: Sanding wooden floors may lead to an explosive environment.
Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, lighters, pilot lights and all other sources of fire
may cause explosion if they are used while sanding. Sources of fire must be
completely removed from the work area.
DANGER: Poorly ventilated work areas may lead to an explosive environment when
certain combustible materials are present in the air, such as, for example,
solvents, thinners, alcohol, fuels, some paints, sawdust and other
combustible materials. Machines for sanding floors can cause combustible
materials and vapours to ignite.
Read the instructions of the manufacturer of each chemical product used in
order to find out its combustibility. Keep working area well ventilated.
DANGER: Knocking against nails while sanding may cause explosion or start a fire.
Always sink all nails completely before sanding the surfaces.
DANGER: If the power supply circuit trips continuously or it provides insufficient
power, there is a risk of electrocution. Have an authorized electrician check
the fuses, protection circuit and power supply line.
DANGER: Maintenance or repairs carried out on a machine which is not duly
disconnected from the power supply line may cause electrocution.
Disconnect the power line before carrying out any maintenance work
and/or repairs.
DANGER: Use of this machine with a damaged power supply cable may cause electric
shock. Do not use the machine if the power supply cable is damaged. Do
not use the power supply cable for moving the machine.
