Optional Accessories - DeWalt DW831 Original Instructions Manual

Metal Applications
When using the tool in metal applications, make sure
that a residual current device (RCD) has been inserted
to avoid residual risks caused by metal swarf.
If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the
tool to authorised D WALT repair agent.

WARNING: In extreme working
conditions, conductive dust can
accumulate inside the machine housing
when working with metal. This can result
in the protective insulation in the machine
becoming degraded with a potential risk
of an electrical shock.
To avoid build-up of metal swarf inside the machine,
we recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a daily
basis. See Maintenance.
Using Flap Discs
WARNING: Metal dust build-up.
Extensive use of flap discs in metal
applications can result in the increased
potential for electric shock. To reduce
this risk, insert an RCD before use and
clean the ventilation slots daily by blowing
dry compressed air into the ventilation
slots inaccordance with the below
maintenance instructions.
