5. GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow
the instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference! The term "power tool" in the sa-
fety warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

5.1 ) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the presence of flammable liq-
uids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operat-
ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control of it.
5.2)

Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modi-
fy the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of elec-
tric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur-
faces, such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
d) Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an ex-
tension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is una-
voidable, use a residual current device (RCD) pro-
tected supply. Using of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.

Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will re-
duce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools 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
firmly at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel-
lery. 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.

5.4 ) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct pow-
er 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 re-
duce 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 pow-
er 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 op-
eration. 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 main-
tained 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 ac-
cordance 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.
5.5)

Service

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.
6. MACHINE-SPECIFIC
SAFETY WARNINGS
• Use the machine only for dry sanding. Penetration
of water into the machine increases the risk of an
electric shock.
• Keep hands away from the sawing range. Do not
reach under the workpiece. Contact with the saw
blade can lead to injuries.

• Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines
are hidden in the work area or call the local utility
company for assistance. Contact with electric lines
can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas
line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line
causes property damage or may cause an electric
shock.
• When working with the machine, always hold it firm-
ly with both hands and provide for a secure stance.
The power tool is guided more secure with both
hands.
• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure
than by hand.
• Keep your workplace clean. Blends of materials are
particularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can
burn or explode.
• Wear protective gloves when changing application
tools/accessories.
• Application tools/ accessories become hot after
prolonged usage.
• Do not scrape wetted materials (e. g. wallpaper) or
on moist surfaces. Penetration of water into the ma-
chine increases the risk of an electric shock.
• Do not treat the surface to be worked with solvent-
containing fluids. Materials being warmed up by the
scraping can cause toxic vapours to develop.
• Exercise extreme caution when handling the scraper.
The accessory is very sharp; danger of injury.

7. ASSEMBLY

WARNING: Always check that the power sup-
ply corresponds to the voltage on the rating
name-plate. Remove the power tool from the
packaging. Do not plug it into the electrical
grid before assembly.
7.1) Mounting sanding plate/ saw blade/
spatula (Fig. 1) (Not Includeed)
WARNING: Prior to assembly and adjust-
ment always pull out the power plug from the
mains socket.
