ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! Do not touch or handle a live tool with any
part of your body that is wet or damp. Wet skin reduces
resistance to electrical current, increasing the danger of a
serious or fatal shock.
WARNING! To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that the
plug is connected to a properly grounded receptacle.
1. Disconnect tool from power source before cleaning,
servicing, changing parts/accessories or when not in use.
2. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on
electrical equipment. Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces. There is an increased chance of electrical shock if
your body is grounded.
3. Do not expose the tool to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the
ON/OFF switch on the tool. This will prevent an accidental
startup when the power cord is plugged into the power supply.
4.1 In the event of a power failure, turn off the machine as
soon as the power is interrupted. The possibility of
accidental injury could occur if the power returns and
the unit is not switched off.
5. Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. All parts
and accessories are designed with built-in safety features
that may be compromised if altered.
6. Make certain the power source conforms to requirements
of your equipment (see Specifications).
7. When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all
electrical and safety codes, as well as the most recent

plug.
10. DO NOT use this device with a 2-prong wall receptacle.
10.1 Choose an available 3-prong power outlet.
10.2 Replace 2 prong outlet with a grounded 3-prong
receptacle, installed in accordance with the CE Code
and local codes and ordinances.
WARNING! All wiring should be performed by a qualified
electrician.
POWER CORD
1. Insert the power cord plug directly to the power supply
whenever possible. Use extension cords or surge protectors
only when the tool's power cord cannot reach a power
supply from the work area.
1.1 Use in conjunction with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, the use of a GFCI reduces the
risk of electric shock. It is recommended that the GFCI
should have a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.

KICKBACK PRECAUTIONS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged cutting
accessory caught on the material. The material can be ejected
and inflict a serious injury on the user or a bystander. Kickback
can also damage the tool or workpiece.
Kickback can be avoided by taking proper precautions:
1. Maintain a firm grip on the material and position your body
and arms to allow you to resist a kickback. Kickback can
propel the material in the direction of the cutting
accessory’s rotation.
1.1 Position the workpiece so the sanding belt is pulling
the workpiece away from you, against the work table or
work guard.
2.1 The sanding disc rotates counter clockwise. Only sand
on the left side of the wheel as the downward force will
help to maintain control of the workpiece. Using the
right side may flip the workpiece upward and cause an
injury if control is lost.
2. Use special care when working on corners, sharp edges or
flexible material. These workpieces have a tendency to
snag the cutting accessory.
3. Only use cutting accessories designed for the tool.
VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
1. This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term
exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and
shoulders.
2. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended
period should first be examined by a doctor and then have
regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused by or worsened from tool use.

3. If you feel any medical symptoms related to vibrations
(such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical attention as soon as possible.
4. DO NOT use this tool if one of the following applies:
a. Pregnant
b. Impaired blood circulation to the hands
c. Past hand injuries
d. Nervous system disorders
e. Diabetes
f. Raynaud's Disease
5. Do not smoke while operating the tool. Nicotine reduces
the blood flow to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
6. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the effects of vibration.
