Operating manual – 3-in-1 multi-function sander PMSS 10-200
•Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on
application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of
stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask or
respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
•Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area.
Anyone entering the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a
broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
•Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contacting a live wire might energize exposed metal parts
of the device and lead to an electric shock.
•Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you
lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged and your
hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
•Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has
come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory may
grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your
control.
•Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
•Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s
fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive
accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical
hazards.
•Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
•Only use the power tool for dry sanding. Water entering
an electrical appliance increases the risk of electric shock.
•Secure the workpiece. The grip of tensioning devices or a
vice is more secure than holding the workpiece only by
hand.
• During operation hold onto the power tool with both
hands. Make sure that you stand firmly on the ground. It is
safer to handle the power tool with two hands.
•Never touch the abrasive belt while it is in motion. Risk
of injury.
• Do not use worn, torn or heavily contaminated
abrasive belts. Damaged abrasive belts can be torn apart,
catapulted away and so lead to personal injury.
•For processing wood, or in particular materials that
produce harmful dusts when sanded, connect the
power tool to an appropriate external exhaust system.
• Only hold the power tool against the workpiece when
the tool is switched on and running. If you are finished
with processing the workpiece, lift the power tool off
the workpiece before you switch it off.
•Make sure that nobody's safety is jeopardized by
flying sparks. Remove combustible materials from the
working environment. Grinding metal causes sparks to
fly.
•Always keep the power cable behind the device.
•Using a power tool that comes equipped with a dust
collector or can be connected to the vacuum cleaner
by means of a dust extraction device involves a fire
hazard. In unfavourable conditions – e.g. in case of flying
sparks caused by grinding metal or metal remainders in
wood – the wood dust inside the dust collector (or in the
vacuum cleaner's dust collection bag) might self-ignite.
The risk is particularly high when the wood dust is mixed
with paint residues or other chemical substances and the
sanding material is hot after a longer period of work.
Therefore, avoid overheating of the workpiece and of the
power tool at all times and empty the dust collector or the
vacuum cleaner's dust bag before taking work breaks.
•Do not use the dust extraction system when grinding
metals.
•Ensure sufficient ventilation.
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding Operations
•Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper.
Follow manufacturers recommendations, when
selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending
beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and
may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.
