structions, 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.

Machine-related safety instructions
– Always hold the machine by the insulated han-
dles because the heating unit and adhesive noz-
zle can become very hot. Risk of burns!
– Always use the machine in well-ventilated
rooms. Otherwise there is a risk that excessive
quantities of vapour will develop during work.
– Do not use the machine for overhead work.
When performing overhead work, there is a dan-
ger of hot liquid adhesive dripping on the ma-
chine operator.
– Protect the machine from moisture. Moisture
can cause electric shocks.
– Protect the cable from heat sources, oil and
sharp edges and keep away from hot machine
components. Damage to the cable can cause
electric shocks.
– Check the plug and the cable regularly to avoid
hazards and have them replaced by an autho-
rised after-sales service workshop if they be-
come damaged. A defective plug or cable can
cause electric shocks.
– Do not pull the plug from the socket by the ca-
ble.The plug or cable may become damaged and
cause electric shocks.
– Always use an extension cable with protective
earth conductor. If an extension cable is used
without a protective earth conductor, the ma-
chine's electrical system is no longer protected,
which can cause electric shocks.
– Always remove melted adhesive cartridges by
purging. Adhesive cartridges that are not melted
can be removed by hand.
– Caution! Clean the system no more than six
hours after using PU adhesive. If instructions in
the operating manual or other documents ac-
companying individual machines relating to the
connection, installation, commissioning, opera-
tion, use and maintenance of machines are not
followed, any claim to warranty will be lost.
– Wear suitable personal protective equipment:
dust mask for reducing the risk of inhaling haz-
ardous vapours, protective gloves for handling
hot machine components, safety goggles.
– The Festool edge bander should always be
mounted on work benches using the stationary
fixture supplied by Festool. The electric power
tool may become unsafe and cause serious acci-
dents if installed in benches from other manufac-
turers or self-manufactured work benches.
– Always use original Festool accessories and ad-
hesive cartridges. Only products tested and ap-
proved by Festool are harmless to health and
perfectly adapted to the machine and application.
Please refer to the safety data sheet for addition-
al specifications. See Festool catalogue or
www.festool.com.
– Observe national safety regulations!
