c) If the power cord is damaged, the power cord shall be
replaced by manufacturer, service or qualified person to
avoid the risk of electrical shock.
Safety Warnings for Sander
► Use the machine only for dry sanding. Penetration of
water into the machine increases the risk of an electric
shock.
► Caution, fire hazard! Avoid overheating the
object being sanded as well as the sander. Always
empty the dust collector before taking breaks. In
unfavourable conditions, e. g., when sparks emit from
sanding metals, sanding debris in the dust bag, micro
filter or paper sack (or in the filter sack or filter of the
vacuum cleaner) can self-ignite. Particularly when
mixed with remainders of varnish, polyurethane or other
chemical materials and when the sanding debris is hot
after long periods of working.
► Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than
by hand.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with an
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should
be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an
authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
