SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with the product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to sander safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

  1. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

  2. Always use safety glasses or goggles.
    Ordinary eyes or sunglasses are NOT safety glasses.

  3. Hold the tool firmly.

  4. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.

  5. This tool has not been waterproofed, so do not use water on the workpiece surface.

  6. Ventilate your work area adequately when you perform sanding operations.

  7. Some material contains chemicals that may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.

  8. The use of this tool to sand some products, paints, and wood could expose users to dust containing hazardous substances. Use appropriate respiratory protection.

  9. Be sure that there are no cracks or breakage on the pad before use. Cracks or breakage may cause a personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury.
