ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

Unplug the sander before changing accessories. Accidental start-ups may occur if sander
is plugged in while changing an accessory.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
Your tool is equipped with a dust canister, empty it frequently, after completion of
sanding and before storing the sander. Be extremely careful of dust disposal, materials in
fine particle form may be explosive. Do not throw sanding dust on an open fire. Combustion
from mixture of varnishes, lacquers, polyurethane, oil or water with dust particles can occur if
there is a static discharge, spark introduced in the box, or excessive heat.
Always wear eye protection and a dust mask for dusty applications and when sanding
overhead. Sanding particles can be absorbed by your eyes and inhaled easily and may cause
health complications.
Do not wet sand with this sander. Liquids entering the motor housing is an electrical shock
hazard.
Do not use sandpaper intended for larger sanding pads. Larger sandpaper will extend
beyond the sanding pad causing snagging, tearing of the paper or kick-back. Extra paper
extending beyond the sanding pad can also cause serious lacerations.
Keep the cord away from the spinning pad and sandpaper. The cord can become
entangled with the pad.
GFCI and personal protection devices like electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC power supply. While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard to
the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely control
the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful
not to disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched or safety guard return springs may be improperly mounted. Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only be serviced by a SKIL Factory Service Center
or Authorized SKIL Service Station.
