cation. A moment of inattention while operat-
ing power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your fi nger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites ac-
cidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore, tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, or storing power tools. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edg-
es are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.

General safety instructions for sanding

a) This power tool is intended to function as a
sander. Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifi cations provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fi re
and/or serious injury.
b) Operations such as grinding, polishing, wire
brushing or cutting-off are not recommended to
be performed with this power tool. Operations
for which the power tool was not designed may
create a hazard and cause personal injury.
c) Do not use accessories which are not specifi -
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure
safe operation.
d) The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. Accessories running faster than
their rated speed can break and fl y apart.
e) The outside diameter and the thickness of ac-
cessories must be within the capacity rating of
