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
tools 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.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
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
STANLEY 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 STANLEY, the
warranty will not be valid.

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.
f 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.
f Always wear eye protection.
f Be sure bonnet is snugly installed on pad.
f Keep hands and fingers away from rotating bonnet.
f Before turning the switch to the ON position, be sure
the pad is free to revolve harmlessly.
f 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:
f Never use a damaged or torn bonnet.
f Wear proper clothing, short sleeves, nothing loose or
bulky, such as shop coat, etc.
f Do not turn tool on unless the polishing bonnet is
against surface being polished.
f Be extremely careful when polishing around sharp or
protruding objects on the car body.
