that have the switch on invites accidents
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards
Power Tool Use & 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.
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.
WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point
receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on
the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for
the tool can result in serious injury to the user, and damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not
plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is
harmful to the motor.
Sanding Tool Safety
WARNING: Hold the power tool by insulated handles or gripping surfaces only, because
the sanding belt/sheet may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool 'live' and could give the operator an electric shock.
WARNING: Use clamps or another practical way to secure the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the workpiece by hand or against the body makes it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
a. ALWAYS wear appropriate protective equipment, including a dust mask with a
minimum FFP2 rating, eye protection and ear defenders
b. Ensure all people in the vicinity of the work area are also equipped with
suitable personal protective equipment
c. Take special care when sanding some woods (such as beech, oak, mahogany
and teak), as the dust produced is toxic and can cause extreme reactions
d. NEVER use to process any materials containing asbestos. Consult a qualified
professional, if you are uncertain whether an object contains asbestos
e. DO NOT sand magnesium or alloys containing a high percentage of magnesium
f. Be aware of paint finishes or treatments that may have been applied to the
material that is being sanded. Many treatments can create dust that is toxic,
or otherwise harmful. If working on a building constructed prior to 1960, there is an
increased chance of encountering lead-based paints
g. The dust produced when sanding lead-based paints is particularly hazardous
to children, pregnant women, and people with high blood pressure. DO NOT
allow these people near to the work area, even if wearing appropriate personal
protective equipment
h. Whenever possible, use a vacuum dust extraction system to control dust and
waste
i. Be especially careful when using a machine for both wood and metal sanding.
Sparks from metal can easily ignite wood dust. ALWAYS clean your machine
thoroughly to reduce the risk of fire
j. Empty the dust bag or container frequently during use, before taking breaks
and after completion of sanding. Dust may be an explosion hazard. DO NOT throw
sanding dust into an open fire. Spontaneous combustion may occur when oil or
water particles come into contact with dust particles. Dispose of waste materials
carefully and in accordance with local laws and regulations.
k. Work surfaces and sandpaper can become very hot during use. If there is
evidence of burning (smoke or ash), from the work surface, stop and allow the
material to cool. DO NOT touch work surface or sandpaper until they have had time
to cool
l. DO NOT touch the moving sandpaper

1500W Sander Polisher
m. ALWAYS switch off before you put the sander down
n. DO NOT use for wet sanding. Liquids entering the motor housing can cause severe
electric shocks
o. ALWAYS unplug the sander from the mains power supply before changing or
replacing sandpaper
p. Even when this tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all
residual risk factors. If you are in any doubt as to safe use of this tool, do not use it

Before use
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect the machine from the power supply before fitting or
removing backing pads or accessories.
Assembling the front handle
• The Front Handle (3) must be fitted to the machine before use:
1. Use the bolts supplied to fit the Front Handle (3) via the fixing holes to either side at
the front of the machine
