Safety instructions WARNING. Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
After long working periods external metal parts and accessories could be hot. • Do not force the sander; let the tool do the work at a reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if too much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in inefficient sanding and possible damage to the sander motor.
• Before using the sander with metal always remove the extraction filter from the outlet as sparks may ignite the dust or the internal bag. • Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding sheets. • Do not touch the moving sanding sheet.
3. Wear safety goggles, a dust mask and ear defenders. 4. The whole sanding pad must rest on the workpiece. 5. Switch the sander on while it is placed on the workpiece and move it over the surface to be smoothed in a circular motion.
8. The paper should be kept tightly clamped over the base, otherwise there could be excessive wear of the base material. WARNING. Never use the sander unless the entire base is fitted with sandpaper or another type of pad. Selecting the right grade of sandpaper WARNING.
General Inspection Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time. Power cord maintenance If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be carried out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s agent, or an authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety hazard.
