b) Do not use an electrical power tool if
its switch is defective. An electrical power
tool that can no longer be switched on and off
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Pull the mains plug from the socket
before you make any adjustments to
the device, change accessories or
when the device is put away. This pre-
caution is intended to prevent you from uninten-
tionally starting the device.
d) When not in use always ensure that
electrical power tools are kept out of
reach of children. Do not let anyone
use the device if he or she is not famil-
iar with it or has not read the
instructions and advice. Electrical power
tools are dangerous when they are used by
inexperienced people.
e) Look after the device carefully. Check
that moving parts are working prop-
erly and move freely. Check for any
parts that are broken or damaged
enough to detrimentally affect the
functioning of the device. Have dam-
aged parts repaired before you use
the device. Many accidents have their ori-
gins in poorly maintained electrical power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to jam and are
easier to control.
g) Use the electrical power tool, accesso-
ries, inserted tools etc. in accordance
with these instructions and advice,
and the stipulations drawn up for this
particular type of device. In doing this,
take into account the working condi-
tions and the task in hand. The use of
electrical power tools for purposes other than
those intended can lead to dangerous situations.

SPArKS! Sanding metal creates flying sparks.
For this reason, always make sure that nobody
is placed in any danger and that there are no
inflammable materials near the working area.
J
When undertaking prolonged sanding of
wood, and in particular when working on ma-
terials that give rise to dusts that are hazardous
to health, the sander must be connected to a
suitable external dust extraction device.
J
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when
working on plastic, paint, varnish etc.
J
The belt sander is designed for the dry sanding
of large surfaces of wood, plastic, metal and
plaster and painted surfaces. The device is to
be used for dry sanding only.
J
Do not sand materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
WArnInG!
Sanding paints containing lead, some types of
wood and metal for example may give rise to
hazardous or poisonous dusts and represents a
risk to the health of the person operating the
device and to anyone near the work area.

Securely support the workpiece. Use clamps or
a vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much
safer than holding it with your hand.

near or in front of the device or the workpiece
surface. A slip can result in injury.
