Double Insulated Tools - Skil 3100-10 Manual De Instrucciones

AVOID GASEOUS AREAS
Do not operate electric tools in gaseous or explosive atmo-
spheres. Motors in these tools normally spark, and may re-
sult in a dangerous condition.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired
by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords
periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean
and free from oil and grease.
CONNECTING THE TOOL
Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle,
outlet, etc.), be sure voltage supplied is the same as that
specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with
voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in
serious injury to the user — as well as damage to the tool.
If in doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power
source with voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful
to the motor.
Sander Specific Safety Rules
The following Skil Sander Models may be used with the
sander insert: Model 7500.
Read and understand the manual for the tool and these
instructions for the use of this accessory with the tool.
Failure to follow important safety instructions can result
in serious personal injury.
Wear eye and dust protection equipment. Use in a well
ventilated area to minimize airborne dust or attach to a
vacuum cleaner. Do not use for sanding materials like
transite, asbestos, paint or other hazardous materials
that could create injurious dust. Particles are expelled
from workpiece during sanding operations which can irritate
eyes and lungs possibly causing injury.
Always clamp or secure sander and fixture when bench
mounted. Always use edge stop or guide when sanding
short or small workpieces. Securely lock all adjustable parts
so they cannot loosen while sanding. Fingers or clothing
can be dragged into pulley and housing area.
Double Insulation is a design concept used in electric
power tools which eliminates the need for the three wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. It
is a recognized and approved system by Underwriter's Lab-
oratories, CSA and Federal OSHA authorities.
IMPORTANT: Servicing of a tool with double insulation
requires care and knowledge of the system and
should be performed only by a qualified service
technician.

WARNING
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, 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.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Unplug the sander before changing accessories.
Accidental start-ups may occur if sander is plugged in while
changing an accessory.
Avoid awkward hand positions where the belt could pull
workpiece and your fingers into the belt or pulleys.
Keep your fingers and clothing away from the belt. They
could get cut or wedged between the pulley, belt and motor
housing.
Properly adjust tracking of belt to avoid it overhanging
the housing. A running belt overhanging its housing can
cause severe lacerations. If belt frays, trim frayed ends to
prevent distraction.
Keep the cord to the side away from pulleys. The cord
can be dragged into belt housing and become entangled
with the pulleys.
Do not wet sand. Water entering a power tool could result
in electrical shock hazard.
Do not sand magnesium. Magnesium dust is highly
flammable.
WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACE-
MENT PARTS.
POLARIZED PLUGS. If your tool is equipped with a polar-
ized plug (one blade is wider than the other), this plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, do not change the plug in any way.
