DETAILED SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR PAPER SANDING
• Do not use too large sheets of abrasive paper. When choosing size of
abrasive paper follow manufacturer instructions. Abrasive paper that
protrudes beyond sanding pad may cause injuries, and also lead to locking
or tearing abrasive paper or kick back.
DETAILED SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR WIRE BRUSHING
• Remember that brush loses pieces of wire even during normal use. Do
not overload wires by excessive pressure. Flying pieces of wire can easily
penetrate through thin clothes and/or skin.
• Whenever use of guard is recommended, avoid contact of brush and
guard. Diameter of wheel and cup brushes may increase at pressure and
centrifugal forces.
• Always wear protective glasses when using wire brushes.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
• Remove the battery from the device before any equipment installation.
• Check grinding tools before use. Grinding tool must be installed
properly and must be free to rotate. To check the device, start it, keep
in safe position and let it run with no load for at least one minute. Do
not use damaged or vibrating grinding tools. Grinding tools must be
round. Damaged grinding tools can break and cause injuries.
• After grinding tool installation, and before starting the grinder, make
sure the grinding tool is properly fixed, it is free to rotate and does not
come in contact with the shield.
• Spindle lock button can be activated only when the grinder spindle is
not moving.
• When using tools designed for grinding wheels with threaded hole,
make sure that the length of the wheel thread matches the length of
the spindle thread.
• Secure processed material. Secured material in a fixing tool or a vice is
safer than holding it in hand.
• Fix processed material securely if its own weight does not guarantee
stable position.
• Do not touch cutting and grinding wheels before they cool down.
• Do not apply side force on grinding or cutting wheel. Do not cut
processed material thicker than maximum cutting depth of cutting
wheel.
• When a quick release flange is used, make sure that inner flange seated on
the spindle is equipped with rubber O-ring and this ring is not damaged.
Also surfaces of the outer flange and the inner flange must be clean.
• Use quick release flange only with cutting and grinding wheels. Use
only flanges that are free from defects, that operate correctly.
CORRECT OPERATION AND USE OF BATTERIES
• Battery charging process should be supervised by the user.
• Avoid charging the battery in temperature lower than 0°C.
• Use only the charger recommended by the manufacturer. Using charger
designed for other type of battery brings the risk of fire.
• When the battery is not in use, store it away from metal objects such as
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or any other small metal objects
that can short-circuit the battery connectors. Short-circuit of battery
connectors may cause burns or fire.
• In case of battery damage and/or improper use it may produce
gas. Ventilate room and seek medical attention in case of medical
symptoms. Gas can damage respiratory tract.
• In extreme conditions liquid may leak out of the battery. The liquid
coming out of the battery may cause irritations or burns. When a leak is
found, follow the below procedure:
- Carefully wipe the liquid with a cloth. Avoid contact of the liquid with skin
and eyes.
- In case the liquid gets onto skin, immediately wash the spot abundantly with
clean water, you can also neutralize the liquid with a mild acid, e.g. lemon
juice or vinegar.
- When the liquid gets into eyes, wash it immediately with a lot of clean water
for at least 10 minutes. Seek medical advice.
• Do not use damaged or modified battery. Damaged or modified batteries
may behave unpredictably, causing fire, explosion or risk of injuries.
• Do not expose the battery to humidity or water.
• Always keep the battery away from sources of heat. Do not leave the
battery for a long time in high temperature (in direct sunlight, in proximity
of heaters and wherever the temperature exceeds 50°C).
• Do not expose the battery to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to
fire or temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.
CAUTION! Temperature of 130°C can be also defined as 265°F.
• Observe all charging instructions. Do not charge the battery in
temperature outside of range defined in the rating data table from the
instruction manual. Incorrect charging or charging in temperature outside of
defined range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
BATTERY REPAIRS
• Do not repair damaged batteries. Battery can be repaired only by the
manufacturer or in an authorised workshop.
• When disposing of the worn out battery, take it to a service point
where you can utilize such dangerous wastes.
SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR THE CHARGER
• Do not expose the charger to humidity or water. Ingress of water into the
charger increases risk of electric shock. Use the charger only in dry rooms.
• Disconnect the charger from power supply before starting any maintenance
or cleaning.
• Do not use the charger when placed on flammable surface (e.g. paper,
textiles) or in proximity of flammable substance. Greater charger
temperature when charging increases risk of fire.
• Check condition of the charger, cable and plug before each use. Do
not use the charger if any damage is found. Do not try to disassemble
the charger. All repairs should be made at an authorized service workshop.
Improper charger assembly may cause electric shock or fire.
• Children or persons who are physically, emotionally or mentally disabled
and other persons, whose experience or knowledge is insufficient to use
the charger while following all safety rules should not use the charger
without supervision of person responsible for their safety. Otherwise there
is a risk of improper use and injuries in consequence.
• When the charger is not in use, it should be disconnected from the
mains network.
• Observe all charging instructions. Do not charge the battery in
temperature outside of range defined in the rating data table from the
instruction manual. Incorrect charging or charging in temperature outside of
defined range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
CHARGER REPAIRS
• Do not repair damaged charger. The charger can be repaired only by the
manufacturer or in an authorised workshop.
• When disposing of the worn out charger, take it to a service point
where you can utilize such wastes.
CAUTION! This device is designed to operate indoors.
The design is assumed to be safe, protection measures and additional safety
systems are used, nevertheless there is always a small risk of injuries at work.
Li-Ion batteries may leak, set on fire or explode when heated to high
temperature or short-circuited. Do not store the batteries in a car in
hot and sunny days. Do not open the battery. Li-Ion batteries contain
electronic protection devices that, if damaged, may cause fire or
explosion of the battery.
