Electrical Safety - Black & Decker KA450 Mode D'emploi

The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.

Electrical safety

#
This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required. Always check that the power
supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
u
manufacturer or an authorised BLACK+DECKER Service
Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
Using an extension cable
Always use an approved extension cable suitable for the
power input of this tool (see technical data). Before use,
inspect the extension cable for signs of damage, wear and
ageing. Replace the extension cable if damaged or defective.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
Use of an extension cable not suitable for the power input of
the tool or which is damaged or defective may result in a risk
of fire and electric shock.

Assembly
Warning! Before assembly, make sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged.
Attaching 1/4 sheet sandpaper (fig.A)
Warning! lock the sander off during sanding disc installation.
Refer to "Lock Off" section.
Lift clamps up with your thumb, (Fig. A). Rotate the clamp
u
(4) downward until the clamp is fully opened.
Lay sandpaper on a flat surface and, centering the pad of
u
the unit, press the sander down firmly onto the paper.
Wrap ends of the sandpaper around ends of the sander
u
pad and clamp them in place using the clamps.
To close clamps, rotate clamp handles back up as far as
u
they will go and lock them in place. Stretch sandpaper as
tight as possible when clamping.
Note: On new tools the sandpaper may be difficult to install
because of the stiffness of the sanding pad. This condition will
improve as the pad compresses over time.
Fitting sanding sheets with nylon loops
Make sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged..
u
Press the sheet firmly and evenly onto the sanding base
u
making sure that the holes in the sheet line up with the
holes in the base.
Use
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
On/off
Hold the sander as shown in Figure C and squeeze so
u
the paddle (1) depresses without putting pressure on the
workpiece.
To turn the tool off, release the paddle.
u
Operation
Grasp the sander as shown in figure B and turn it ON. Move it
in long, sweeping strokes along the surface, letting it do
the work.
Pushing down on the tool while sanding actually slows the
removal rate and produces an inferior quality finish.
Check your work often. Sander is capable of removing
material rapidly especially with coarse paper.
Lock on/lock off slider
This sander is equipped with a switch that allows you to lock
it on for extended use, and lock off to prevent accidental
actuation.
