Safety, performance, and dependability have been given top priority in the design of your file sander.

INTENDED USE

The file sander is intended to be used only by adults who have read and understood the instructions and warnings in this manual, and can be considered responsible for their actions.

The product is intended for sanding metal, wood, plastics, or similar materials. The product should only be used in well ventilated areas.

The product is designed for dry sanding only. Do not use for wet sanding.

The product is intended for consumer use only.

Do not use the product for any other purpose. Use of the product for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.

WARNING

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

FILE SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS

• Clamp the workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury and damage. Do not hold the material you are sanding by hand.
• Do not use a sanding belt larger than needed. While using the product, considerable dust and fine particles will be produced. Wear respiratory protection masks containing filters appropriate to the materials being worked. Ensure adequate workplace ventilation. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area. Only operate on materials which are specified in the Intended Use section. Do not operate on materials (e.g., asbestos) which present a health hazard.
• Dust from certain paints, coatings, and materials may cause irritation or allergic reactions. Dust from wood such as oak, beech, MDF, and others is carcinogenic. Only qualified specialists should be allowed to use the product on materials containing asbestos. The ambient temperature range for the tool during operation is between 0°C and 40°C.
• The ambient temperature range for tool storage is between 0°C and 40°C. The recommended ambient temperature range for the charging system during charging is between 10°C and 38°C.

ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS

A WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack, or charger in fluid or allow fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

• The ambient temperature range for the battery during use is between 0°C and 40°C.
• The ambient temperature range for battery storage is between 0°C and 20°C.

TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES

Transport the battery in accordance with local and national provisions and regulations.

Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling when transporting batteries by a third party. Ensure that no batteries can come in contact with other batteries or conductive materials while in transport by protecting exposed connectors with insulating, non-conductive caps or tape. Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leaking. Check with the forwarding company for further advice.

RESIDUAL RISKS

Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:

Entrapment/contact with the moving belt

• Especially during inverted operation, additional caution must be exercised to prevent operator's fingers and hands from coming into contact with the abrasive belt or being entrapped by the rollers.

Injury caused by dust

• Wear eye protection at all times.
• Wear respiratory protection masks containing filters appropriate to the materials being worked. Ensure adequate workplace ventilation.
• Do not eat, drink or smoke in the work area.

Risk of explosion

Accumulated fine dust may ignite and cause fire. Keep the work area clean and free from dust. Dust collection and vacuum extraction systems should be regularly and thoroughly cleaned. When sanding metal, hot sparks may be produced.

Noise and vibration - Wear ear protection when operating the product. Do not operate the product for extended periods of time.

RISK REDUCTION

It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome

in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:

• Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome. After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation. Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.

If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about these symptoms.

WARNING

Injuries may be caused or aggravated by prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.

RISK REDUCTION

It is known that vibrations from power tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness, or blanching of the fingers, usually triggered by exposure to cold. It is believed that hereditary factors, exposure to cold, diet, smoking, and work habits contribute to the development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the operator to reduce the effects of vibrations:

Cold and damp conditions can cause discomfort. When working with the instrument, wear gloves to protect your hands and fingers from the cold. Before starting work, the main factor for developing Raynaud's Syndrome is the cold environment. Do exercises to activate blood circulation after each work break. Regularly inspect the tool.

The declared vibration emission value and the declared noise emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

The declared vibration emission value and the declared noise emission value represent the main applications of the tool.

However, if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission and noise emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.

WARNING

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

WARNING

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

CAUTION

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

CAUTION

(Without safety alert symbol) Indicates a situation that may result in property damage.

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.

An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
