Additional safety instructions:

WARNING – Always wear protective
goggles.
Wear a suitable dust protection mask.
Do not use bonded discs.
Observe the specifications of the accessory
manufacturer! Protect the accessories from grease
and physical impact.
Accessories must be stored and handled with care
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Secure small workpieces, for example by clamping
them in a vice.
The workpiece must lay flat and be secured against
slipping, e.g. using clamps. Large workpieces must
be sufficiently supported.
If accessories with threaded inserts are used, the
end of the spindle may not touch the base of the
hole on the sanding tool. Make sure that the thread
in the accessory is long enough to accommodate
the full length of the spindle. The thread in the
accessory must match the thread on the spindle.
See page 4 and chapter 15. Technical
Specifications for more information on the spindle
length and thread.
Impurities that manage to enter the
machine may block the switching
mechanism. This is why it is necessary when the
machine is running to blow compressed air through
the rear ventilation slots of the machine regularly,
frequently and thoroughly. Here, the machine must
be held firmly.
Damaged, eccentric or vibrating tools must not be
used.
Avoid damage to gas or water pipes, electrical
cables and load-bearing walls (building structure).
When using the machine outdoors:
Connect an FI circuit-breaker with max. release
current (30 mA) upstream
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
using a metal detector).
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, converting or servicing the machine.
A damaged or cracked side handle must be
replaced. Never operate the machine with a
defective additional handle.
A damaged or cracked safety guard must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
safety guard.
Only use accessories that are surmounted by
brushes of the safety guard.
Reducing Dust Exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain chemicals known to cause
cancer, allergic reactions, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some of these
substances include: lead (in lead paint), mineral
dust (from bricks, concrete etc.), wood treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservatives), some
types of wood (such as oak or beech dust), metals,
asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long the user or nearby persons are
being exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
To reduce exposure to these substances: work in a
well ventilated area and wear protective equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Replace worn brushes (see chapter 9.), thus less
particles enter the environment in an uncontrolled
manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit:
- For efficient dust collection, use a suitable
Metabo (M-class) vacuum cleaner together
with this power tool.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream towards yourself or nearby
persons or towards dust deposits,
- use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,
- ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep
it clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash protective clothing. Do not blow,
beat or brush protective gear.
