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 accessories, or storing
power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
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 edges 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, taking 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) This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
i) Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional safety rules for sanders
WARNING.
Remove the plug from the power socket
before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance, including the changing of sandpaper.
•
When fitting and changing sandpaper, always follow the
instructions.
•
If possible, always use clamps or a vice to hold
your work.
•
Make sure that the switch is off before you plug the
tool in.
•
Do not over-reach, be sure of your footing and balance
at all times.
•
Always wear eye and ear protection and use a dust mask.
•
Only use good quality sandpaper.
•
Do not force the sander; let the tool do the work at a
reasonable feed speed. Overloading will occur if too
much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting
in inefficient sanding and possible damage to the
sander motor.
•
Always switch off before you put the sander down.
•
Disconnect the sander from the power supply when
it is not in use, before cleaning and when changing
sandpaper.
•
Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left
around the work area.
•
Do not continue to use worn, torn or heavily clogged
sanding sheets.
•
Do not touch the moving sanding sheet.
Ensure that you have removed foreign objects such as nails
and screws from the work before commencing sanding.
