c)
Never grind on the side surfaces of the grind-
ing discs. Grinding on the side surfaces can
cause the grinding disc to break and fall apart.
m Warning! This power tool generates an electro-
magnetic field during operation. This field can impair
active or passive medical implants under certain cir-
cumstances.
In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries,
we recommend that persons with medical implants
consult with their physician and the manufacturer of
the medical implant prior to operating the power tool.
Additional safety rules for the oscillating edge-,
belt- and spindle sander
m WARNING: Do not use your machine until it is
completely assembled and installed according to the
instructions.
• If you are not familiar with the operation of the grind-
ing machine, ask the head of the department, your
teacher, or any other qualified person.
• ATTENTION: This machine is designed for grinding
wood or wood-like material only. The sanding of oth-
er materials can cause fire, injuries, or damage the
product.
• Always wear hearing protection, safety goggles and
respiratory protection.
• This machine may only be operated indoors.
• IMPORTANT: Only assemble and use the machine
on a horizontal surface. A non-horizontal surface
can damage the motor.
• If the machine tends to tilt or walk (especially when
sanding long and heavy panels), it must be fastened
to a solid surface of sufÏcient carrying force.
• Firmly hold the workpiece when sanding.
• Do not wear gloves. Do not hold the workpiece with
a cloth during sanding.
• Never sand workpieces too small to be held safely.
• Avoid awkward hand positions where a sudden slip
could cause your hand to touch the grinding belt or
disc.
• When sanding a large piece of material, provide an
additional support at table height.
• Never sand an unsupported workpiece. Secure the
workpiece with the table or the stop. Exceptions are
the sanding of curved workpieces on the outside of
the grinding disc.
• Always clear the table, fence or grinding belt of scraps
or other objects, before turning the machine on.
• Do not perform any layout assembly or set-up work
on the table while the grinding machine is in oper-
ation.
• Switch the machine off and pull the power plug from
the socket when fitting or removing accessories.
• Never leave the working area of the sander while the
tool is running, or as long as it has not come to an
absolute standstill.
• Always place the workpiece on the grinding table.
Place curved tools securely on the table when sand-
ing on the grinding wheel.
Residual risks
The machine has been built according to the state-of-
the-art and the recognised technical safety require-
ments. However, individual residual risks can arise
during operation.
• Risk of injury for fingers and hands due to the rotat-
ing grinding disc with improper guiding or positioning
of the tool to be sanded.
• Risk of injury from tools thrown away due to improp-
er holding or guiding.
• Health hazard due to electrical power, with the use
of improper electrical connection cables.
• Furthermore, despite all precautions having been
met, some non-obvious residual risks may still re-
main.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the "Safety In-
structions" and the "Intended Use" together with the
operating manual as a whole are observed.
• Avoid accidental starting of the machine: the oper-
ating button may not be pressed when inserting the
plug in an outlet.
• Use the tool that is recommended in this operating
manual. This is how to ensure that your machine
provides optimum performance.
