1 Safety instructions
1.1 General safety instructions
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or bat-
tery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1.2 Machine-related safety instructions
- Always hold the machine by the insulated han-
dles because the heating unit and adhesive noz-
zle can become very hot. Risk of burns!
- Always use the machine in well-ventilated
rooms. Otherwise there is a risk that excessive
quantities of vapour will develop during work.
- Do not use the machine for overhead work.
When performing overhead work, there is a dan-
ger of hot liquid adhesive dripping on the ma-
chine operator.
- Protect the machine from moisture. Moisture
can cause electric shocks.
- Protect the cable from heat sources, oil and
sharp edges and keep away from hot machine
components. Damage to the cable can cause
electric shocks.
- Check the plug and the cable regularly to avoid
hazards and have them replaced by an autho-
rised after-sales service workshop if they be-
14
come damaged. A defective plug or cable can
cause electric shocks.
14
- Do not pull the plug from the socket by the ca-
15
ble.The plug or cable may become damaged and
15 cause electric shocks.
- Always use an extension cable with protective
15
earth conductor. If an extension cable is used
15
without a protective earth conductor, the ma-
16
chine's electrical system is no longer protected,
16
which can cause electric shocks.
- Always remove melted adhesive cartridges by
18
purging. Adhesive cartridges that are not melted
20
can be removed by hand.
20
- Wear suitable personal protective equipment:
20
dust mask for reducing the risk of inhaling haz-
21 ardous vapours, protective gloves for handling
hot machine components, safety goggles.
- The Festool edge bander should always be
mounted on work benches using the stationary
fixture supplied by Festool. The electric power
tool may become unsafe and cause serious acci-
dents if installed in benches from other manufac-
turers or self-manufactured work benches.
- Always use original Festool accessories and ad-
hesive cartridges. Only products tested and ap-
proved by Festool are harmless to health and
perfectly adapted to the machine and application.
Please refer to the safety data sheet for addition-
al specifications. See Festool catalogue or
www.festool.com.
- Observe national safety regulations!
- Only for AS/NZS: The tool shall always be sup-
plied via residual current device with a rated re-
sidual current of 30 mA or less.
