SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR DRYWALL SANDER
1. Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
2. Wear a dust mask. Do not inhale the harmful dusts generated. The dust can endanger the health of yourself
and bystanders.
3. Do not use the power tool with a damaged cord. Do not touch the damaged cord and pull the plug from
the outlet when the cord is damaged while working. Damaged cords increase the risk of an electric shock.
Warning: Reduce the working time to avoid risks related with too much vibration.
If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available
through the service organization.
4. Do not use the power tool for explosive materials (e. g., easily inflammable solvents). Power tools
produce sparks which could ignite developing vapours.
5. Hold the machine firmly with both hands by the insulated gripping surfaces while working and keep
proper footing and balance at all times. Do not overreach. The machine is more securely guided with both
hands. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
6. Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool insert jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque that
can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when the power tool is subject to overload or it becomes wedged in
the workpiece.
7. Keep the cord away from the working area. The cord may be entangled.
8. Ensure that no liquid splashes against the housing of the power tool. Liquid that has penetrated the
power tool can cause damage and lead to electric shock.
9. Follow the instructions and warnings in the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) of the material to be
sanded. Material to be sanded may be harmful.
10. In the event of a power interruption, release the locking switch by pressing the on/off switch. This will
prevent the power tool from restarting unintentionally (risk of injury).
11. Always keep your hands away from the rotating sanding head area.
12. Sanding lead-based paint is extremely toxic and should not be attempted. Only allow professionals with
special training and equipment perform this task.
13. After completing sanding, switch off the machine and wait for the sanding head to stop completely
before putting the tool down.
14. Switch off the machine immediately if unusual vibrations or if other malfunctions occur. Check the
machine in order to find out the cause.
15. The dust that arises when working with this tool can be harmful to health. Use a dust absorption system
and wear a suitable dust protection mask and remove deposited dust with a vacuum cleaner.
This machine is intended for sanding drywalls, ceilings and walls of the inner and outer surfaces, clearing the floor
residues, paint coatings, adhesive and plaster etc.
1. Power source check
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
2. Switch status check
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the plug is connected to a power receptacle while the
power switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.
4. Electrical safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check that the power supply corresponds to
the voltage on the rating plate.
This machine is double insulated in accordance with EN 60745
