The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Note: Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

Work area safety

• Keep the work area clean and well lit to avoid accidents.
• Do not use power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust that can cause fires.
• Keep children and other unauthorized persons away while using a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control of the tool.

Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Using a proper plug reduces the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Never use the cord to carry, pull, or unplug the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat or oil.
• When using a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
• If it is unavoidable to use the tool in a humid location, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply to reduce the risk of electric shock.

Personal security

• Always be alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the tool.
• Do not use a power tool if you are tired or under the influence of drugs or other substances.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-slip safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used in the right conditions will reduce personal injury. Also, do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
• Avoid accidentally turning the tool on. Make sure the switch is in the off position before connecting it to the power supply and moving it.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning on the power tool. A wrench or wrench attached to a rotating part of the power tool can cause serious injury.
• If dust extraction and collection devices are used, make sure they are properly connected. Use these devices properly and you will reduce dust hazards.
• Harmful / toxic dusts such as lead painted surfaces, wood or metals can arise when sanding. It is important to take special care with inhaling them, as it can be a danger to the health of the user. Also, always have EPIS for the use of these types of tools.

Use and care of power tools

• Do not force the tool. Use the right power tool for each use.
• Do not use the power tool if its ignition switch does not work. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool to avoid accidental starting.
• Use the power tool, accessories and drill bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be carried out. Using the power tool for operations other than those intended could result in a dangerous situation.
• Store power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow anyone unfamiliar with the tool to use it.
• Carry out regular maintenance on power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, broken parts, and any other conditions that may affect the operation of power tools. If damaged, have power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep accessories clean and sharp, as with proper maintenance they are less likely to get stuck and are easier to control.

2. If the sander does not wear the surface, check the condition of the sandpaper. If the sandpaper has worn, replace the new paper and try again. The paper should be kept in a dry place, if it is allowed to get wet, the abrasive particles will lose their adherence to the backing paper.
3. If the sander does not move smoothly, the sandpaper may be loose, damaged, or wrinkled. Replace it and try again.
4. If the problem cannot be rectified, contact an authorized official dealer for repair.
