Hot mixtures of sanding dust and paint/var-
nish remainders or other chemical materials
in the filter bag or the vac filter can self-ignite
under unfavorable conditions, such as spark-
ing from sanding metal, continuous sunlight
or high ambient temperatures. To prevent
this:
Hand/arm vibrations.
Whilst working with this pneu-
WARNING
matic tool, hand/arm vibra-
tions occur. These can lead to health
impairments.
The vibration emission value

during actual use of the pneu-
matic tool can differ from the declared value
depending on the ways in which the tool is
used.
It is necessary to identify safety

measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of expo-
sure in the actual conditions of use.
The vibration emission level given in these
instructions has been measured in accordance
with a standardized test given in EN 792 and
may be used to compare one pneumatic tool
with another. It may be used for a preliminary
assessment of the vibrational impact.
– Avoid overheating the material being
sanded and the power tool.
– Empty the dust container in time.
– Observe the material manufacturer's
working instructions.
– Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials being worked on.
The declared vibration emission level repre-
sents the main applications of the pneumatic
tool. However, if the pneumatic tool is used
for other applications, with different accesso-
ries or poorly maintained, the vibration emis-
sion level may differ. This may significantly
increase the vibrational impact over the total
working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to
vibration should also take into account the
times when the tool is switched off or when
it is running but not actually doing the job.
This may significantly reduce the exposure
level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect
the operator from the effects of vibration
such as: maintain the pneumatic tool and
accessories, keep the hands warm, organiza-
tion of work patterns.
