Machine-related safety instructions

General safety instructions for sanding:
a. This power tool is designed to be used as a
sander with sandpaper. Read all safety instruc-
tions, information, illustrations and technical
data enclosed with the machine. If the following
instructions are not observed, this may lead to
electrical shock, fire and/or serious injuries.
b. This power tool is not suitable for coarse sand-
ing, sanding with a wire brush, abrasive cutting
or polishing. Applications for which the power
14
tool is not intended can pose a serious risk and
cause injuries.
c. Do not use any accessories that the manufactur-
er has not specially designed or recommended
for this power tool. Just because you can attach
accessories to your power tool does not guaran-
tee that they can be used safely.
d. The permissible speed of the insertion tool
must be at least the maximum speed specified
on the tool itself. Accessories that rotate faster
than the permitted speed can break and fly off.
e. The outer diameter and thickness of the inser-
tion tool must correspond to the dimensions of
your power tool. Insertion tools which are mea-
sured incorrectly cannot be sufficiently shielded
or controlled.
f. Sanding discs, flanges, sanding pads and other
accessories must be fully compatible with the
rotary spindle on your power tool. Insertion
tools which are not fully compatible with the ro-
tary spindle on the power tool will rotate uneven-
ly, vibrate strongly and may lead to a loss of
control.
g. Do not use insertion tools that are damaged.
Before each use, check insertion tools such as
sanding discs for chipping and cracks and sand-
ing pads for cracks, wear or heavy abrasive
wear. If the power tool or insertion tool is
dropped, check whether it is damaged. Dam-
aged insertion tools will generally break after a
short time.
h. Make sure that any other persons in the vicinity
are at a safe distance from your work area. Any-
one entering the work area must wear personal
protective equipment. Fragments of the work-
piece may fly off and even cause injuries outside
the immediate work area.
i. Keep the mains cable away from rotating inser-
tion tools. If you lose control of the machine, the
mains cable may be severed or caught and your
hand or arm could get caught in the rotating in-
sertion tool.
j. Never place the power tool down before the in-
sertion tool has come to a complete halt. The ro-
tating insertion tool may make contact with the
storage area, which could cause you to lose con-
trol of the power tool.
k. Do not leave the power tool running when you
are carrying it. Your clothing may accidentally
come into contact with and get caught in the ro-
tating insertion tool.
l. Clean the vents in your power tool on a regular
basis. The fan draws dust into the housing and a
