ures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
u
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to oper-
ate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
u
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 be-
fore use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
u
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
u
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.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
u
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unex-
pected situations.
Battery tool use and care
Recharge only with the charger specified by
u
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable
for one type of battery pack may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically desig-
u
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
u
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a
fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejec-
u
ted from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irrita-
tion or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
u
aged or modified. Damaged or modified bat-
teries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour res-
ulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
u
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.

Follow all charging instructions and do not
u
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
English
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
u
repair person using only identical replace-
ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs. Ser-
u
vice of battery packs should only be performed
by the manufacturer or authorized service pro-
viders.
Safety Warnings for Sander
Only use the power tool for dry sanding. Wa-
u
ter entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Warning: Danger of fire! Avoid overheating
u
the workpiece and the sander. Always empty
the dust container before taking a break from
work. Sanding dust in the dust bag, microfilter,
paper bag (or in the filter bag or vacuum
cleaner filter) can spontaneously ignite under
unfavourable conditions. This risk is increased
if the sanding dust is mixed with paint or poly-
urethane residue or with other chemical sub-
stances and if the workpiece is hot as a result
of prolonged work.
In case of damage and improper use of the
u
battery, vapours may be emitted. The battery
can set alight or explode. Ensure the area is
well ventilated and seek medical attention
should you experience any adverse effects. The
vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of
u
short-circuiting.
The battery can be damaged by pointed ob-
u
jects such as nails or screwdrivers or by
force applied externally. An internal short cir-
cuit may occur, causing the battery to burn,
smoke, explode or overheat.
Only use the battery with products from the
u
manufacturer. This is the only way in which you
can protect the battery against dangerous over-
load.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g.
against continuous intense sunlight,
fire, dirt, water and moisture. There is
a risk of explosion and short-circuiting.
Always wait until the power tool has come to
u
a complete stop before placing it down.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
u
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
