yourself. Instead, take the device to your nearest
authorized Service Center.
∙
To avoid danger, damaged power cord should
be replaced by manufacturer or its agent, or similar
EN
qualified person.
∙
Immediately unplug the tool when its cable is
damaged or cut.
ATTENTION! DANGER OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK!
Consider working area environment. Do not expose
power tools to rain. Do not use power tools in damp
or wet locations. Keep work area well lit and dry. Try
to prevent the device from getting wet or being
exposed to humidity. Do not leave it outside
overnight. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
∙ The power supply cable should be checked
regularly and, before using it, make sure the cable is
not damaged or worn out. If the cable is not in good
condition, do not use the appliance; take it to an
authorized service Center.
∙ When tool is used outdoor, only use an extension
cable that is suitable for outdoor use and which is
marked for this specific use. Keep it away from the
working area, from damp, wet or oily surfaces and away
from heat and flammable materials.
∙
Avoid any accidental starting: make sure that the
power switch (if present) is in the «off» position, before
plugging the tool in.
∙ Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning
the tool on.
∙
Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn the
tool on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
WARNING! During the use of certain
power tools, some dust containing
chemicals known to cause cancer,
may occur.
Some of these chemicals are: lead from lead based
paints, crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber and other dangerous products. If dust is
present, your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals, any time
you do pulverulent operations, work in a well
ventilated area and work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
∙
If the appliance strikes a foreign body, examine the
device for signs of damage and carry out any necessary
repairs before restarting and continuing to work.
∙ If the appliance starts to vibrate abnormally, turn
it off and check for the cause immediately. Vibration is
generally a warning of trouble.
∙ Always switch off the appliance and wait until
the device completely stops whenever you leave
the machine, before
before changing accessories, checking, cleaning,
troubleshooting or working on the appliance.
∙ It is forbidden to move or modify any of the internal
parts of the device.
Specific safety rules
∙ Make sure that the foreign objects such as nails
and screws have been removed from the work before
commencing sanding.
∙ Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never
be left around the work area.
∙ Always switch off before the sander is put down.
∙ Do not force the sander. Let the tool work at a
reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if too much
pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in
inefficient sanding and may damage the sander motor.
∙
When an extension cable is required, be sure that
it has the right ampere rating for the tool and it is in safe
electrical condition.
∙ Fully unwind cable drum extension to avoid
potential overheating.
∙
Do not touch the moving sanding belt.
∙ Worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding belts can not
be continuously used.
∙ Always connect the dust bag or use dust extraction
system when sanding wood.
