General Safety Rules
Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fi re and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
anyadapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, rang-
es and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffi x W-A or
W following the cord type designation. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets
Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet
120V 0-25
Ampere Rating Gauge of wire in AWG units
From 10 to 12 amps 16
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, al-
cohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a
key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in mov-
ing parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-
related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The cor-
rect 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 before making any adjustments, chang-
ing 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 tools operation. If dam-
aged, 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 instruc-
tions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into ac-
count 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.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical re-
placement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
• Do not sand metal of any kind with your sander. Sparks may be generated by sanding screws,
nails or other metals which may ignite dust particles.
• Do not wet sand with this sander. Liquids may enter the motor housing and cause electric shock.
• Empty dust bag frequently. Especially when sanding resin coated surfaces such as poly-
urethane, varnish, shellac, etc. The accumulation of fine sanding dust particles may self ignite
and cause fire.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the operating action of
this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide extra
cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use.
• Sanding of lead-based paint, chemically pressure treated lumber or other materials that
may contain carcinogens is not recommended. Sanding of these materials should only be
performed by a professional.
• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust and grit containing metal particles
often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create a risk of serious injury, electric shock or
electrocution. ALWAYS disconnect the sander from the power source before cleaning. ALWAYS
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES that conform to ANSI Z87.1.
• ALWAYS disconnect tool from the power source before changing abrasive belts or sheets.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• ALWAYS maintain a firm grip with both hands on the belt sander handles with both hands
to prevent loss of control.
• ALWAYS keep fingers away from the moving belt and areas where the belt enters the housing to
avoid severe abrasion.
• Do not operate belt sander without all guards and covers securely in place.
• To avoid injury, do not use this tool in a stand that would invert it for use as a stationary
belt sander. This tool is not made for that application.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint.
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate tool
in well-ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection system wherever
possible.
ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.(ANSI Z87.1) and (CAN/CSA Z94.3) Everyday eye-
glasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS
WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3)
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL
1. Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of controlling the con-
taminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant women.
2. Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains lead without a chemical analysis, we
recommend the following precautions when sanding any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is being
done until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work area. The filter should
be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing. See your local hardware store
for the proper NIOSH approved dust mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to prevent ingesting
contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or
smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the work area where dust would
settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of dust generated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 mil thickness.
3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work area.
CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
1. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration
of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust chips or other
removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of through
regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept
away from the immediate work area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed thoroughly before
being used again.
