m) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your
side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could
snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
n) Regularly clean the power tool's air vents. The motor's
fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive
accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical
hazards.
o) Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
p) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants.
Using water or other liquid coolants may result in
electrocution or shock.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory.
Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating
accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool
to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory's
rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by
the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the
pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing
the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either
jump toward or away from the operator, depending on
direction of the wheel's movement at the point of pinching.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for
maximum control over kickback or torque reaction
during start-up. The operator can control torque reactions
or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.
Accessory may kickback over your hand.
c) Do not position your body in the area where power
tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the
tool in direction opposite to the wheel's movement at the
point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges
etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory.
Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag
the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving blade or
toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback
and loss of control.
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding Operations:
a) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper.
Follow manufacturers recommendations, when
selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper extending
beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and
may cause snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.
Safety Warnings Specific for Polishing Operations:
a) Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing
bonnet or its attachment strings to spin freely. Tuck
away or trim any loose attachment strings. Loose and
spinning attachment strings can entangle your fingers or
snag on the workpiece.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing
loss.
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
Appliances used at many different locations including open
air must be connected via a residual current device (FI,
RCD, PRCD).

Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the
machine is running.
Only plug-in when machine is switched off.
Never reach into the danger area of the plane when it is
running.
Immediately switch off the machine in case of considerable
vibrations or if other malfunctions occur. Check the machine
in order to find out the cause.
Always use and store the grinding disks according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
When grinding metal, flying sparks are produced. Take care
that no persons are endangered. Because of the danger of
fire, no combustible materials should be located in the
vicinity (spark flight zone). Do not use dust extraction.
Due care should be taken that no sparks or sanding dust
flying from the workpiece come into contact with you.
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to
health (e.g. when working oak or beech wood, stones, paint,
which could contain lead or other harmful chemicals). Do
not inhale the dust. Use a dust absorption system and wear
a suitable dust protection mask. Remove deposited dust
thoroughly, e.g. with a vacuum cleaner.
Always disconnect the plug from the socket before carrying
out any work on the machine.
Keep mains lead clear from working range of the machine.
Always lead the cable away behind you.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your
hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to
loss of control.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
The sander and polisher is designed for sanding and
polishing metallic surfaces. If you have any doubt, refer to
the instructions supplied by the accessory manufacturer.
Do not use this product in any other way as stated for
normal use.
MAINS CONNECTION
Connect only to single-phase a.c. current and only to
the system voltage indicated on the rating plate. It is
also possible to connect to sockets without an earthing
contact as the design conforms to safety class II.
MAINTENANCE
The ventilation slots of the machine must be kept clear at all
times.
Do not let any metal parts reach the airing slots - danger of
short circuit!
Use only Eisenblätter accessories and spare parts. Should
components need to be exchanged which have not been
described, please contact one of our Eisenblätter service
agents (see our list of guarantee/service addresses).
EXTENSION CORD
When an extension cord is required, use one that is
sufficient for the power requirement of the tool. Extension
cords of inadequate wire size cause a serious drop in
voltage, loss of power and possible motor damage. To limit
line voltage drop to a safe level, refer to the following table:
Length in meters 8 15 23
Length in feet 25 50 75
Wire size AWG 14 14 12
NOTE: Extension cords that are used outdoors must be
approved for outdoor use.
SYMBOLS
Please read the instructions carefully before
starting the machine.
Always wear goggles when using the machine.
Always disconnect the plug from the socket
before carrying out any work on the machine.
