LEAD PAINT WARNING!
Paint once contained lead as a traditional ingredient. The dust from the removal of such paint is toxic if inhaled or ingested and must,
therefore, be avoided. The following action must be taken before using the sander on a surface that you suspect may have contained
lead in the paint.
1. User must determine potential hazard relating to age of paint to be removed. (Modern paints do not contain lead).
2. DANGER! Keep all persons and pets away from the work area. The following are particularly vulnerable to the effects of lead paint dust:
Expectant women, babies and children.
3. We recommend personal protection by using the following safety items:
a) Paint Spray Respirator (Sealey ref: SSP1699)
b) PE Coated Hooded Coverall (Sealey ref: SSP266)
c) Latex Gloves (Sealey ref: SSP24)
4. Take adequate measures to contain the paint dust, flakes, and scrapings.
5. Continue to wear safety equipment as in 3 above, and thoroughly clean all areas when task is complete. Ensure that paint waste is
disposed of, in sealed bags or containers, according to local authority regulations.

WARNING! This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
Measured vibration emission value (a): 1.1 m/s²
Uncertainty value (k): 1.5 m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a
specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
Syndrome.
Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be modified
accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry and
maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use and
Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website
www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
