IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE

· In addition, please read the advice in the accompanying booklet called "Safety advice" before using
the equipment for the first time.
· The PEBS 900 belt sander is designed for dry sanding of large surfaces of wood, plastic, metal and –
with increased removal rate – plaster and painted surfaces. The belt sander is only to be used for dry
sanding.
· If the mains cable becomes damaged or cut through whilst you are working, never touch the cable –
pull the plug out of the mains socket immediately. Never use electrical equipment with a damaged
mains cable.
· When working always keep the cable running away from the back of the machine.
· The belt sander should be connected to a suitable external vacuum suction device when sanding
wood for long periods and in particular when sanding materials that give rise to dusts that may be
hazardous to health. Wear a breathing mask, ear protectors and protective glasses.
· The sander is not to be used on materials containing asbestos.
· Secure the workpiece to be sanded if it is not stable under its own weight.
· Always make sure that the machine is switched off before you pull the socket out of the mains
socket.
· Switch on the belt sander first before you bring it into contact with the workpiece and lift the sander
off the workpiece before you switch it off.
· Do not continue to use a sanding belt if it is worn out or ripped.
· Avoid touching the moving sanding belt - danger of injury.
· Switch off the machine and let the belt come to a standstill before you place the sander down.
· Attention: sparks may be generated during use - danger of fire. Sparks may be generated when
metals are being sanded. You should therefore always be careful to ensure that no one is placed in
danger and no inflammable materials are kept near the working area.
· Use original spare parts and accessories to ensure the best performance from your sander.
USING THE SANDER FOR THE FIRST TIME
Note the mains voltage. The mains voltage must correspond with that shown on the sander rating
plate.
Equipment labelled as 230 V may also be used with 220 V.

intermittent setting. For normal or longer periods of sanding we recommend the continuous setting.
