h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specifi ed by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack
may create a risk of fi re when used with another
battery pack.
b) Use
power
tools
designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fi re.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
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 fi re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modifi ed.
Damaged
or

unpredictable behaviour resulting in fi re, explosion
or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fi re or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fi re or temperature above 130°C may
cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specifi ed in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside
the specifi ed range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fi re.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be performed
by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
PRECAUTION
Keep children and infi rm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of
children and infi rm persons.

SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS
Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the workpiece by hand or against your body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2. Attaching and removing the dust bag
Prior to the sanding operation, make sure the material of
surface you are going to sand.
If the surface under sanding operation is expected to
generate harmful / toxic dusts such as lead painted
surface, make sure the dust bag or appropriate dust
extraction system is connected with dust outlet tightly.
Wear the dust mask additionally, if available.
Do not inhale or touch the harmful / toxic dusts generated
in sanding operation, the dust can endanger the health
of yourself and bystanders.
3. Never apply water or grinding fl uid when sanding. This
could result in electrical shock.
4. Never turn the power switch ON when the sander is
contacting the surface to be sanded. This is necessary
to preclude damage to the material. The same applies
when switching the power OFF.
5. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the sander while
sanding. Excessive-pressure may cause overload of the
motor, reduced service life of the sanding paper, and
lowered sanding or polishing effi ciency.
6. Never touch moving parts.
Never place your hands, fi ngers or other body parts near
the tool's moving parts.
7. NEVER leave tool running unattended. Turn power off .
Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
8. When operating the tool, do not wear work gloves as
such cloth wear can get caught in the tool.
9. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when
hand-held.
10. Make sure that there are no cracks, scratches, or other
abnormalities on the pad before use.
11. Accessories must be securely mounted to the tool.
Prevent potential injuries to yourself or others.
Accessories which have been mounted to the tool
should be secure and tight.
12. Use the sanding paper and accessories specifi ed by
HiKOKI.
13. When sanding metal, sparks are generated. Do not use
the dust bag, and keep other persons and fl ammable
substances away from the work area.
14. If you notice that the unit is generating unusually high
temperatures, operating poorly, or making abnormal
noises, immediately stop using and shut off the power
switch. Request an inspection and repair from the dealer
where you purchased the unit or a HiKOKI Authorized
Service Center.
Continuing to use while operating abnormally might
cause injuries.
15. If the unit is mistakenly dropped or strikes another object,
make a thorough check of the unit for cracks, breakage
or deformation, etc.
Injuries might occur if the unit has cracks, breakage or
deformation.
16. When working at elevated locations, clear the area of
other people and aware of conditions below you.
17. Always charge the battery at a temperature of 0°C–40°C.
A temperature of less than 0°C will result in over charging
which is dangerous. The battery cannot be charged at a
temperature higher than 40°C.
The most suitable temperature for charging is that of
20°C–25°C.
18. Do not use the charger continuously.
When one charging is completed, leave the charger for
about 15 minutes before the next charging of battery.
