The multi-tool creates vibrations which move the
accessory. The vibrations may cause discomfort if the
product is operated for long periods of time. Take a rest
often, especially if you feel discomfort in the arm, wrist,
or fingers. Choose a speed setting which will get the
work completed efficiently. Read the Residual Risks
and Risk Reduction sections for more information on
vibration-related injury.

Clamp
workpiece
with
Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury and
damage. Do not hold the material you are sanding by
hand.
■
Always wear safety goggles and a dust mask when
sanding, especially sanding overhead.
■
A suitable breathing respirator must be worn while
sanding lead paint, some woods and metal to avoid
breathing the harmful/toxic dust or air.
■
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful
to the health of the operator and bystanders. Operator
and bystanders shall not touch and not inhale the dust.
Wear a suitable dust protection mask.
■
Do not machine any materials that present a danger to
health (e.g. asbestos).
■
Do not use sanding paper larger than needed. Extra
paper extending beyond the sanding pad can also
cause serious lacerations.
■
The product will restart automatically if stalled. Switch
off the product immediately if it stalls. Do not switch on
the product again while it is still stalled, as doing so
could trigger a sudden recoil with a high reactive force.
Determine why the product stalled and rectify this,
paying heed to the safety instructions.

It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
