Explosion hazard! Do not work  
with the appliance in areas subject to  
the risk of explosions or in areas  
where flammable liquids, gases or dusts are  
located. Electrical hand tools produce sparks  
which could ignite the dust or vapours.  
Keep children and other unauthorised  
personnel at a safe distance when

The power plug of the appliance must match the  
power socket. Never manipulate the electrical plug.  
Do not use adapter plugs together with earthing-  
protected appliances. Unmodified plugs and suit-  
able wall sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.  
Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces,  
such as pipes, heaters, stoves and refrigerators.  
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if  
your body is earthed.

Important! When using electrical tools, the  
following basic safety measures must be followed  
to protect against electric shock, injuries and fire  
hazards. Read and take note of these operating  
instructions and the safety advice contained  
therein before using the appliance, and keep  
them for future reference. Not following the  
instructions listed below can result in electric  
shock, fire and/or serious injuries.  
Do not use the power cord for purposes other  
than intended, e.g. do not use the cord to carry  
the appliance, for hanging it up or for pulling  
the plug from the wall socket. Keep the cable  
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving  
appliance parts. Damaged or tangled cords or  
plugs increase the risk of an electric shock.  
A damaged appliance, power cord

or power plug mean a risk of life-  
threatening electric shock.  
Check the condition of the appliance, the power  
cables and the power plugs on a regular basis.  
Check the power cord of the electric tool on  
a regular basis and have it replaced by a  
recognised specialist if damaged.

good illumination of the working area. Cluttered

Safety Instructions  
J
When working outdoors, use only extension  
cords which are certified for use outdoors. The  
use of an extension cable suitable for employ-  
ment outdoors reduces the risk of electrical shock.  
Warning! - Never open the appliance.  
Arrange for repair or component replacement  
work to be carried out by the service centre or  
specialists for electrical repairs.  
this equipment reduces risks caused by dust.  
There is a risk of fire when working with electrical  
appliances that are equipped with dust bags  
or which can be connected to an appropriate  
appliance with a dust suction attachment! Under  
unfavourable conditions, such as flying sparks,  
grinding of metal or metal remnants in wood,  
the wood dust in the dust bag (or in the filter  
bag of a vacuum cleaner) can ignite. This can  
happen especially if the wood dust has paint  
particles on it or is mixed with other chemical  
substances and the sanded material is hot after  
extensive working. Therefore, avoid overheat-  
ing both, the part which is being sanded and  
the appliance, and always empty the dust bag  
or the filter bag of the vacuum before work  
pauses.

Safety of Personnel  
J
J
J
Always be alert and aware of what you are  
doing. Work sensibly with an electrical hand  
tool. Do not use the appliance if you are unable  
to concentrate or tired or under the influence  
of drugs, alcohol or medication. Just a simple  
lapse of attention while using an electrical  
hand tool is sufficient to lead to serious injuries.  
Wear personal protective gear and  
Carefull Handling and Use of

always wear safety goggles. De-  
pending on the use of the electrical  
appliance, wearing personal protective  
J
J
J
Do not overload the appliance. Use the correct  
electrical tool for your work. With the correct  
electrical tool, you will work better and more  
safely within the specified performance range.  
Never use an electrical tool with a defective  
switch. An electrical tool that can no longer be  
switched on or off is dangerous and must be  
repaired.  
Pull the plug out of the power socket before mak-  
ing adjustments to the appliance, changing ac-  
cessories or putting away the appliance. These  
precautionary measures prevent accidental  
starting of the appliance.  
Store unused electrical tools outside the reach  
of children. Do not allow persons to operate  
the appliance, if they are not familiar with the  
use of the tool or if they have not read these  
instructions. Electrical tools are dangerous if  
used by inexperienced persons.  
Take good care of the appliance. Check whether  
moving appliance parts are functioning correctly  
and do not stick, whether parts are broken or  
damaged and that the functioning of the ap-  
pliance is not impaired. Have damaged parts  
repaired before using the appliance. Many  
equipment, such as dust masks, anti-slip safety  
shoes, protective gloves, safety helmet, and ear  
protection may reduce the risk of injuries.  
Avoid accidental start of the appliance. Ensure  
the switch is in the "OFF" position before  
inserting the plug into the power socket. Never  
touch the ON/OFF switch while carrying  
the appliance, never switch the appliance on  
before connecting it to the power supply - this  
may cause an accident.  
Do not overestimate yourself. Ensure you position  
yourself securely and you are balanced at all  
times. This allows much better control over the  
appliance, especially in unexpected situations.  
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose cloth-  
ing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves  
away from moving parts. Wear a hair net if you  
have long hair. Loose clothing and clothing that  
is not tight against the body, as well as jewellery  
and hair can be caught by moving parts.  
Use dust vacuuming and collecting equipment if  
these can be attached to the appliance. Please  
note that the vacuums used must be suitable  
for this special application. The correct use of

accidents are caused by poorly maintained  
electrical tools.  
J
J
Ensure sufficient ventilation when working on  
plastics, paints, lacquers, etc.  
Do not soak materials or surfaces to be worked  
with liquids containing solvents. Heating during  
sanding can give rise to vapours that are toxic  
or hazardous to health.  
Avoid sanding of lead-based paints or other  
materials that are hazardous to health.  
Material containing asbestos may not be worked  
on. Asbestos is considered a carcinogen.  
The appliance is designed for dry surface  
sanding of wood, plastic, metal and smoothing  
compounds as well as painted surfaces.  
Never work on moistened materials or wet  
surfaces.  
J
Use electrical tools, accessories, aids, etc. in ac-  
cordance with these instructions and as directed  
for this special appliance type. Take considera-  
tion thereby of the working conditions and the  
task to be completed. The use of electrical hand  
tools for purposes other than those originally  
intended can lead to dangerous situations.

When working outdoors, connect the appli-  
ance via a residual current circuit-breaker with

setting down the oscillating sander.  
J
Always pull the power plug out of the socket  
for all work pauses, before any work on the  
appliance (e.g. changing the sanding paper)  
and when not in use.  
J
Never support your hands next to or in front of  
the device or on the surface being worked as  
there is a risk of injury in the event of slipping.  
In case of danger, immediately pull the power  
plug from the socket.  
J
J
The appliance must always be kept clean, dry  
and free of oil or lubricating greases.  
Always stay alert! Always pay attention to  
what you are doing and act with common  
sense. Never use the appliance when you are  
distracted or don’t feel well.  
J
J
J
Always run the power cord away from the  
appliance to the rear.  
Fire hazard due to flying sparks!  
When sanding metals, there is a risk of flying  
sparks. For this reason, always make certain  
that no one is at risk and that no flammable  
materials are located near the working area.  
m Warning! Toxic vapours! Working with  
harmful/toxic dusts results in health hazards  
for the person operating the appliance and for  
other persons in the area.  
Service  
J
J
Arrange for your appliance to be repaired only  
by qualified specialists and only with original  
spare parts. Thus, you can be certain that the  
safety of your appliance is assured.  
Always have the plug or power cord replaced  
by the manufacturer of the appliance or the  
manufacturer's customer service. Thus, you can  
be certain that the safety of your appliance is  
assured.  
J
J
Wear safety glasses and a dust  
protection mask!  
When working for extended periods on wood  
and, in particular, materials that produce dusts  
that are hazardous to health, connect the  
appliance to an appropriate external suction  
device.
