– Solvent from solvent-containing paint/
varnish;
– Arsenic, chromium and other wood pre-
servatives;
– Materials for pesticide treatment on boat
and ship hulls;
– Stainless steel dust, metal dust and non-
ferrous metal dust;
To minimize the unwanted intake of these
materials:
– Use dust extraction matched appropriately
for the developing dust.
– Use personal protective equipment, such
as a P2 filter-class dust protection mask.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
place.
The risk from inhaling dusts depends on how
often these materials are worked. Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked on
by specialists.

Hand/arm vibrations.

While working with this power
WARNING
tool, hand/arm vibrations
occur. These can lead to health impairments.
The vibration emission value

during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared value
depending on the ways in which the tool is
used.
It is necessary to identify safety

measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of expo-
sure in the actual conditions of use.
The vibration emission level given in this
information sheet has been measured in
accordance with a standardized test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one
tool with another. It may be used for a pre-
liminary assessment of the vibrational impact.
The declared vibration emission level repre-
sents the main applications of the power tool.
However, if the power tool is used for other
Wood and light-metal dust can

cause spontaneous combus-
tion or explosions.
Hot mixtures of sanding dust and paint/var-
nish remainders or other chemical materials
in the filter bag or the vac filter can self-ignite
under unfavorable conditions, such as spark-
ing from sanding metal, continuous sunlight
or high ambient temperatures. To prevent
this:
– Avoid overheating the material being
sanded and the power tool.
– Empty the dust collector/container in time.
– Observe the material manufacturer's
working instructions.
– Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials being worked.
applications with different accessories or
poorly maintained, the vibration emission
may differ. This may significantly increase the
vibrational impact over the total working
period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to
vibration should also take into account the
times when the tool is switched off or when
it is running but not actually doing the job.
This may significantly reduce the exposure
level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect
the operator from the effects of vibration
such as: Maintain the power tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organiza-
tion of work patterns.
The vibrational emission values are given for
dry grinding of metal with grinding points.
Other applications, such as shaping with hard
metal cutters, can lead to other vibrational
emission values.
