Specific Safety Rules; Use Of Extension Cords - Black & Decker ProLine BPGP1518 Manual

ENGLISH
6. Electrical safety
Your tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire
is required. Always check that the main voltage
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Warning! If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized
Black & Decker Service Center or an equally
qualified person in order to avoid damage or injury. If the
power cord is replaced by an equally qualified person, but
not authorized by Black & Decker, the warranty will not be
valid.

Specific safety rules
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels and
other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and
cause injury.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the polishing tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a
"live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing and
wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

• Always wear eye protection.
• Be sure bonnet is snugly installed on pad.
• Keep hands and fingers away from rotating bonnet.
• Before turning the switch to the ON position, be sure the
pad is free to revolve harmlessly.
• Inspect the bonnet frequently for wear, dirt or imbedded
debris.
Caution! Do not allow the power cord to contact
the rotating bonnet as it may become quickly
tangled around it. If this occurs, turn tool OFF
and unplug the power cord before attempting to untangle the
cord. If the cord is damaged, have it repaired or replaced at
your local tool repair station:
• Never use a damaged or torn bonnet.
• Wear proper clothing, short sleeves, nothing loose or
bulky, such as shop coat, etc.
• Do not turn tool on unless the polishing bonnet is against
surface being polished.
• Be extremely careful when polishing around sharp or
protruding objects on the car body.
Caution! Do not use abrasive or rubbing
compounds. The abrasive nature of these
products can damage painted surfaces.
Caution! Wear appropriate hearing protection
during use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.

Use of extension cords

Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before
using. Always use the proper size extension cords with the
tool – that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and
heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of
an undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see
chart below.
