GB SAFETY WARNINGS FOR SANDING, SANDBLASTING, METAL BRUSHING, POLISHING OR CUTTING WHEEL OPERATION:

a) This electronic device functions as a tool. Carefully read the safety notices, instructions, illustrations and specifications supplied with the electronic device. Non-compliance with the following safety notices may lead to electric shock, fire or serious injury.
b) Jobs like sanding, sand blasting, metal brushing and polishing should not be carried out with this electronic device. Jobs outside the application of the device can cause danger and injury.
c) Only use accessories which were produced specially for the device and which are recommended by the manufacturer. The fact that an accessory can be attached to your electronic device, does not guarantee device safety.
d) The nominal rotation speed of the accessories must correspond to the maximum revolutions specified on the electronic device. Accessories which are operated at higher revolutions than the nominal rotation speed, can break and fly apart.
e) The external diameter and the thickness of the accessories must lie within the capacity of your electronic device. Accessories of other sizes cannot be protected and controlled sufficiently.
f) The holding mandrel of the discs, flanges and grinding discs as well as of other accessories must be big enough to conveniently accept the arbor of the electronic device. Accessories with an arbor hole unsuitable for the arbor size of the electronic device do not run smoothly, they vibrate increasingly which can lead to the device getting out of control.
g) Only use undamaged accessories. Before using the device, the accessories must always be checked. Check the sanding discs for chippings and cracks, the grinding discs for cracks and excessive wear and tear as well as for loose or damaged cables. Should the

device or accessories fall on the floor, they must be checked for damage and, if required, undamaged accessories need to be attached. After checking and attaching the accessories, you as well as others present need to be positioned at sufficient distance from the surface of the rotating accessories, and the electronic device needs to run for one minute at maximum speed with no load. Damaged accessories usually break apart during this test phase.

h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on the application, you must wear face protection or goggles. When required, you must wear a dust mask, hearing protection, protective gloves and an apron as protection from particles which are produced during sanding. The goggles must be suitable as protection from small flying parts which are produced during different activities with the device. The dust mask or the breathing equipment must be able to filter particles which are produced during the different activities. If the human ear is exposed to very loud noises over a longer period, this can lead to hearing damage.
i) People present have to be at a safe distance from the work area. The work area may only be entered with personal protective equipment. Debris from the machined part or from accessories can fly off and cause injuries within the immediate work area.
j) Hold the device only by the insulated part of the handle when carrying out work during which there may be a danger that you cut into a cable which cannot be seen or into the cable of the device itself. If you cut into a live cable, the metal parts of the electronic device also become live and cause electric shock to the operator of the device.
k) Keep the cable away from rotating accessories. If you lose control over the device, the cable could be cut or get hooked and your hand or your arm could get caught in the rotating accessories.
I) Put down the electronic device only when the accessories have come to a complete standstill. Rotating accessories can get caught on the floor and the electronic device gets out of control.
m) Leave the electronic device switched off during carrying. If the rotating accessories touch your clothes by accident, they will get caught up and the accessories can injure your body.
n) Clean the ventilation slots of the electronic device regularly. The motor fan pulls dust into the casing so that excessive build-up of metal powder can lead to electrical hazards.
o) The electronic device must not be used close to flammable materials. Generation of sparks can lead to ignition of these materials.
p) Do not use accessories for which liquid coolants are required. Coolants can lead to electric shock.

Recoil and related safety notices

If rotating discs, metal brushes or other accessories get hooked or caught, this can lead to sudden recoil. The rotating accessory stops rapidly which leads to complete loss of control over the electronic device because the device abruptly rotates in the opposite direction. If a grinding wheel gets hooked or caught in the machined part, the edge of the grinding wheel eats into the surface of the material at that point, and the grinding wheel is ejected. The disc is either ejected towards the operator or away from the operator, depending on the direction in which the disc was moving when it got stuck. The grinding wheel may also break under these conditions. A recoil occurs only when the electronic device is used improperly or for inappropriate jobs. This can be prevented with appropriate safety measures which will be explained in the following.

a) Hold the electronic device securely and position yourself and your arm in such a way that you can withstand recoil. If required, use the additional handles to have maximum control over potential recoil or torque resistance when turning the device on. If

suitable safety measures are taken, the operator can control recoil and torque resistance at all times.

b) Keep your hand away from rotating accessories at all times. The recoil from the accessories can have an effect on your hand.
c) Do not position yourself in the area where potential recoil of the device can have an impact. Recoil catapults the device in the direction opposite to the disc's direction of rotation at the time it gets stuck.
d) When working on corners, sharp edges etc. you must be particularly careful. Avoid violent jolting and getting the accessory caught. Corners, sharp edges and violent jolting can lead to the rotating accessory getting caught, which can lead to loss of control and recoil.
e) Do not attach motor saw blades for woodcuts or saw blades with serrated edges. These saw blades regularly lead to recoil and loss of control.

SAFETY WARNING PARTICULARLY FOR SANDING:

a) Do not use excessively large grinding wheels. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations when choosing abrasive paper. Larger abrasive paper reaching beyond the grinding edge presents a danger of tearing and can lead to tearing off or tearing of the grinding wheel or to recoil.

SAFETY WARNING FOR DRY WALL SANDING:

Warning! The following fundamental safety measures must be followed when using electric tools to prevent electric shock, injuries and danger of fire. Read and follow these instructions before using these tools. Store these instructions in a safe location.

1. The devices must never be used in an explosive atmosphere.
2. Prevent physical contact with the cable.

3. Only use the extension lead recommended for use in the work area.

4. Do not use the machine for unsuitable work such as coarse sanding, brushing etc. This leads to danger and injuries.

5. Only use identical spare parts during maintenance because risk-free use cannot be guaranteed otherwise.
6. The permitted speed for the accessories must correspond to the maximum speed of the machine. Otherwise, cracks or tears may occur if the operating speed for the approved machine is exceeded.
7. Do not use damaged accessories. Always check before operation whether the accessories are damaged or torn. Check, for example, whether the support plate is torn on the grinding wheel. Make sure that there are no people in the rotation area of the machine, and let the machine run at maximum speed for one minute so that accessories can be comprehensively checked.
8. Do not put the machine down until it has come to a complete standstill because you will lose control of the device.
9. Clean the outlet port of your machine regularly. Hold the machine with both hands during use in order to ensure safe operation.
10. When sanding, do not use abrasive paper which is too big. When selecting a sanding plate, please follow the manufacturer's recommendations. If the abrasive paper is bigger than the sanding plate, this presents a risk of tearing and injury and it can also lead to the rotation stopping.
11. The machine can be attached to a maximum of one extension pipe.
12. We recommend that you always wear industrial safety gloves and goggles when working with the dry construction sander.
13. Wearing tight-fitting clothing is mandatory.
14. Always leave space for torque.
15. Wear the protective mask P2 as protection from hazardous dust and select a suitable vacuum cleaner.
