situations.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, 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.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of sanders allow you to become
complacent and ignore sander safety principles. Careless use can lead to serious
injuries within fractions of a second.
4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the tool. Use the power tool designed for the work that you
are doing. You work better and safer in the specified performance range if you use
the suitable power tool.
b) Do not use power tools whose switch is defective. A power tool that cannot be
switched on or off is dangerous and has to be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from
the power sander before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power sanders. This precautionary measure prevents unintentional starting
of the tool.
d) Store unused power tools so that they are inaccessible to children. Do not let
persons use the tool who are not familiar with it or who have not read these
instructions. Power tools are dangerous when they are used by inexperienced persons.
e) Take proper care of your tools. Check whether the moving parts function
trouble-free and do not jam, whether parts are broken or damaged so that
the tool function is impaired. Have damaged parts repaired before using the
tool. Many accidents occur with power tools that have been maintained badly.
f) Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in accordance with these
instructions and in a fashion specified for this special tool type. Take the working
conditions and the activity to be carried out into consideration. The use of power
tools for purposes other than the intended ones can lead to dangerous situations.
g) Keep the handles and grip surfaces dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grip surfaces hamper safe operation and control of the electric
tool in unforeseen situations.
