connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) service
a) Have your power tool serviced by
OrIgINaL INstructIONs
a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
b) If the replacement of the supply cord
is necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or his agent in order to
avoid a safety hazard.

1. Harmful/toxic dusts will arise from
sanding e.g. lead painted surfaces, woods
and metals. Contact with or inhalation of
these dusts can endanger the health of
operator and bystanders. Always use eye
glasses and dust mask.
2. Hearing protection should be worn when
using the sander.
3. Hold power tools by insulated
gripping surfaces when performing
an operation where the cutting 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
4. always wear safety glasses or
eye shields when using the sander.
Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-
resistant lenses; they are not safety
glasses. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of serious personal injury.
5. Remove the plug from the socket before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
6. Fully unwind cable drum extensions to
avoid potential overheating.
7. When an extension cable is required
you must ensure it has the correct ampere
rating for your power tool and is in a safe
electrical condition.
8. Ensure your mains supply voltage is
same as indicated on the rating plate.
9. Your tool is double insulated for
additional protection against a possible
electrical insulation failure within the tool.
10. Always check walls, floors and ceilings
