Safety warning instructions for the operation of the sander risks when clamping the sanding disc:
• It is necessary to exactly clamp the sanding disc in order to avoid risk of injuries by discs flying off.
• Do not use any damaged or broken sanding discs.
• Only use sanding discs which comply with the seat and pitch of the device. Do not apply excessive force in
order to fix a sanding disc which is supposed to fit. Possibly the pitch does not match.
Matching discs can be easily screwed on.
• Check, if the disc is well-seated before you start working by letting the device run at full speed for short
time. Make sure to protect yourself against discs flying off (e.g. by holding the device under a heavy working
table).
• If the sanding disc gets loose and flies off, it may cause very severe injuries!
• Never use a sanding disc with a lower highest speed than the highest speed recommended for the
compressed air device. The admissible highest speed is listed in the technical datasheets of the sanding
disc.

blowbacks of the device.
• Immediately switch off the device in case of canting or blocking. Do not start the tool in any case as long as

neutral for about 30 seconds. If clear vibrations or other irregularities occur, it is necessary to immediately
stop the device and determine the cause hereof.
• In case of strong vibrations, immediately replace the sanding disc since it is possibly damaged.
• A breaking sanding disc may cause severe injuries.
• Mount the corresponding sanding discs only on admitted compressed air tools. Make sure that the
maximum admitted speed of the sanding disc is not below the admissible speed of the device. Never mount
a sanding disc which is designed for lower speeds on a tool designed for higher speeds.
