tions such as flying sparks when sanding
metals. Particular danger exists if the
swarf is mixed with paint, polyurethane
residue or other chemical materials and
the grinding material is hot after long peri
ods of work.
Always use original Festool sanding pads.
–
Foreign pads are not suitable for the speed
of the sander and may break.
If the power tool is dropped or falls, check
–
for damage to the machine and sanding
pad. Remove the sanding pad for closer
inspection. Repair damaged parts before
using again. Broken sanding pads and
damaged machines can cause injuries and
machine instability.

Mixed dust containing metal and
sanding damp surfaces
With mixed dust containing metal (such as
dust resulting from paint sanding in the auto
motive field) and when sanding damp surfaces,
the following measures must be observed for
reasons of safety:
–
Install a residual-current circuit breaker
(GFCI, PRCD) upstream.
–
Connect the machine to a suitable dust ex
tractor.
–
Regularly blow out the motor housing of
the machine to remove dust deposits.
Wear protective goggles.

The sanders are designed for sanding wood,
plastic, composite, paint/varnish, filler and sim

taining metal (such as dust resulting from paint
sanding in the automotive industry) and when
sanding damp surfaces, special safety instruc
tions must be followed. The sanders are not in
