ADDITIONAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
YOUR SANDER
1. Remove the plug from the socket before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
2. Fully unwind cable drum extensions to
avoid potential overheating.
3. 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.
4. Ensure your mains supply voltage is same
as indicated on the rating plate.
5. Your tool is double insulated for additional
protection against a possible electrical
insulation failure within the tool.
6. Always check walls, floors and ceilings to
avoid hidden power cables and pipes.
7. After long working periods external metal
parts and accessories could be hot.
8. If possible, ensure the workpiece is firmly
clamped to prevent movement.
9. Your rotary sander is a hand held tool, do
not clamp your rotary sander.
10. Before sanding, check the area is free of
nails, screws, etc.
11. Never stop the rotary sander by applying a
force to the baseplate.
12. Only use paper in good condition. Do not
use torn or worn paper.
13. Do not sand material containing asbestos
due to a health risk.
14. Do not sand lead based paint due to the
risk of lead poisoning.
15. Do not eat or drink in the working area of
the sander.
16. Do not allow people to enter the working
area without wearing a dust mask.
17 . Where possible, seal off the working area
to contain the dust for later removal.
18. Your tool is designed for dry sanding only,
not wet sanding.
19. Your tool is designed for general purpose
light polishing of wood and metals.
20. Do not sand magnesium material due to
the risk of fire.
21. Always wear safety glasses or eye
shields when using the sander.
Random orbital sander
Everyday eyeglasses have only
impact-resistant lenses; they are not
safety glasses. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
22. Always wear hearing protection
during extended periods of operation.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
23. 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.
24. hold power tools by insulated
gripping surfaces when performing
an operation where the 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.
wARNING: Some dust particles
created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drill and other construction
jobs contain chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending upon how often you do this type
of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to bag microscopic particles.
