2.2 Machine-related safety instructions
– Dust that is harmful to your health may be pro-
duced as you work (e.g. paint products contain-
ing lead and some types of wood). Contact with
or inhalation of this dust may pose a risk for the
operating personnel or persons in the vicinity.

– Clean work equipment soaked in oils, for exam-
ple sanding pad or polishing felt, with water and
allow to dry. Work equipment soaked in oil may
combust spontaneously.
– Attention: Risk of fire! Avoid overheating the
grinding material and the sander. Always empty
the dust container before taking a break. Swarf
in the filter bag or filter of the mobile dust ex-
tractor may self-ignite in unfavourable condi-
tions such as flying sparks when grinding metals.
Particular danger exists if the swarf is mixed with
paint, polyurethane residue or other chemical
materials and the grinding material is hot after
long periods of work.
– If the power tool is dropped or falls, check for
damage to the machine and sanding pad. Re-
move the sanding pad for closer inspection.
Have the damaged parts repaired before
use.Broken sanding pads and damaged ma-
chines can cause injuries and machine instabili-
ty.
– Always use original Festool sanding pads.
– While using the long-life dust bag be aware of
electric charge. Always when possible use an
antistatic suction hose with the power tool. A
slight electric shock may cause you to panic
briefly and become distracted, which may result
in an accident.
– Only for AS/NZS: The tool shall always be sup-
plied via residual current device with a rated re-
sidual current of 30 mA or less.
