Health Hazard By Dust; Intended Use - Festool RTSC 400 Li Manual De Instrucciones

Clean work equipment soaked in oils, for
–
example sanding pad or polishing felt,
with water and allow to dry. Work equip­
ment soaked in oil may combust spontane­
ously.
– Attention: Risk of fire! Avoid overheating
the grinding material and the sander. Al­
ways empty the dust container before tak­
ing a break. Swarf in the filter bag or filter
of the mobile dust extractor may self-ignite
in unfavourable conditions such as flying
sparks when grinding metals. Particular
danger exists if the swarf is mixed with
paint, polyurethane residue or other chem­
ical materials and the grinding material is
hot after long periods of work.
– If the power tool is dropped or falls, check
for damage to the machine and sanding
pad. Remove the sanding pad for closer
inspection. Have the damaged parts re­
paired before use.Broken sanding pads
and damaged machines can cause injuries
and machine instability.
Always use original Festool sanding pads.
–
While using the long-life dust bag be
–
aware of electric charge. Always when
possible use an antistatic suction hose
with the power tool. A slight electric shock
may cause you to panic briefly and become
distracted, which may result in an accident.
– Only use the mains adapter with this de­
vice.
– Only use the mains adapter together with
an original Festool plug-it cable.
– Only for AS/NZS: The tool shall always be
supplied via residual current device with a
rated residual current of 30 mA or less.

Health hazard by dust

WARNING! Various dust created by pow­
er sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities contains chemicals
known (to the State of California) to cause can­
cer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber.
The risk from these exposures varies, depend­
ing on how often you do this type of work. To re­
duce your exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic par­
ticles. Wash hands after handling.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, USER
MUST READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
