• WARNING: Contact with or inhalation of harmful / toxic dusts arising from
sanding painted surfaces, woods and metals can endanger the health of opera-
tor and bystanders.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE TO GUARD AGAINST THESE DUSTS, INCLUDING THE
FOLLOWING:
•
All persons entering the work area must wear an approved mask specially designed for
protection against harmful / toxic dusts, in addition to using the dust extraction facility,
and keeping work area well ventilated.
•
Children and pregnant women must not enter the work area.

ANY PRE1960 BUILDING MAY HAVE PAINT CONTAINING

WORKPIECE CONTAINS LEAD SEEK PROFESSIONAL ADVICE.
• Some wood and wood type products especially MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) can
produce dust that can be hazardous to your health. We recommend the use of an
approved face mask with replaceable filters when using this machine in addition to
using the dust extraction facility.
Hold the machine correctly using two hands and adopt a stable stance, make sure that
•
the mains cable is prevented fromcoming into contact with the machine or getting
caught up on other objects preventing completion of the sanding pass.
• This tool is intended to remove surface material using an abrasive medium.
• Ensure that you have removed foreign objects such as nails and screws from the
workpiece before commencing sanding.
•
Do not use it for wet sanding, for dry sanding only.
•
Where possible, secure smaller workpieces to prevent them from moving under the
sander.
Do not force the sander, let the tool do the work at a reasonable speed. Overloading will
•
occur if too much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in inefficient sanding
and possible damage to the sander motor.
• Do not use the dust collection box when sanding metal. The hot metal particles could
cause residual wood dust or the internal filter paper to catch fire.
•
Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged sanding belts.
•
Do not touch the moving sanding belt.
