This tool is not insulated for contact with electric
power sources.
• Do not use near live electric circuits. When
sanding structures, be aware that they may have
hidden electric wires.
• There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if
sanders are used on plastic or other non-
conductive materials.
Electric shock can cause injury.
This tool is not intended for use in a flammable or
explosive atmosphere.
• Do not use this tool in a flammable or explosive
atmosphere.
• When sanding structures, be aware that they may
have hidden gas lines.
Explosions and fire can cause injury.
Sanding metals creates sparks that can ignite
flammable materials and vapors.
• Only sand metals if the area is free of
combustible or explosive materials or vapors.
• Potentially explosive atmospheres can be caused
by dust and fumes resulting from sanding or
grinding. Always use dust extraction or
suppression systems which are suitable for the
material being processed.
• The priority to eliminate dust and fumes is to
control them at the point of emission.
Explosions and fire can cause injury.
Backing pads rotating at excessive speed can burst.
• Check the speed printed on the backing pad.
This speed must be greater than the nameplate
speed of the sander. Do not exceed rated
operating air pressure.
Bursting backing pads can cause injury or death.
Sanders are not guarded for use with grinding wheels
or cut off wheels.
• Never mount a grinding wheel or cutoff wheel on
a sander.
Unguarded grinding wheels and cut off wheels can
cause injury.

• Do not force tool.
Hard to control tool can cause injury.
Taping or wiring the throttle valve in the "ON"
position will prevent the tool from shutting off if the
tool should jam or malfunction or if anything
unexpected happens.
• Do not wire or tape down the "On-Off" valve of
any power tool.
Tools that are prevented from shutting off can cause
injury.
Poorly maintained and lubricated tools can fail
unexpectedly.
• Keep tool properly lubricated and in good repair
at all times. Use only Snap-on IM6 Air Motor Oil.
See the tool's information sheet to find out what
other greases and oils to use. Do not drop the end
of the hose on the floor where it will pick up dirt
and transport it into the tool. See information
sheet for any additional maintenance
requirements.
• Never run the tool unless the abrasive is applied
to the work piece.
Unexpected tool failures can cause injury.
Backing pads, sanding discs and related equipment in
poor shape or not the proper ones for the tool can
cause the tool to malfunction. Backing pads not
properly tightened can spin off. Sanding disc not
properly attached can spin off. Dust collection
equipment not properly attached can come off.
• Be certain that all backing pads, sanding discs
and related equipment are in good shape, the
proper ones for the type and size of tool being
used, and are securely fastened.
• Select, maintain, and replace the consumables
as recommended by the supplier.
Backing pads and sanding discs that spin off can
cause injury. Dust collection equipment that comes
off can cause injury. Tools should be periodically
inspected to ensure ratings and markings are legible.
Replace labeling as needed. Avoid exposure to
hazardous substances deposited on the tool.
Sanding discs mounted off-center can expose an
excessive portion of the edge and cause vibration.
• Make sure the sanding disc is mounted
concentrically on the backing pad.
Excessively exposed portions of the sanding disc can
cause injury. Excessive vibration can cause injury.
