Our goal is to produce tools that help you work safely and efficiently.
The most important safety device for this or any tool is YOU. Your care
and good judgement are the best protection against injury. All possible
hazards cannot be covered here, but we have tried to highlight some of
the important ones.
Only qualified and trained operators should install, adjust or use this
power tool.
This tool and its accessories must not be modified in any way.
Do not use this tool if it has been damaged.
If the rated speed, operating pressure or hazard warning signs on the
tool cease to be legible or become detached, replace without delay.
For Additional Safety Information Consult:
Other documents and information packed with this tool.
Your employer, union and / or trade association.

Air under pressure can cause severe injury.
Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and disconnect tool
from air supply when not in use, before changing accessories or when
making repairs.
Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damaged or
loose hoses and fittings.
Do not use quick disconnect couplings at tool. See instructions for cor-
rect set up.
Whenever universal twist couplings are used, lock pins must be installed.
Do not exceed maximum air pressure of 6.3 bar / 90 psig, or as stated
on tool nameplate.

Keep away from moving sand pad. Note that the abrasive will continue
to run after the start valve has closed; for dual action sanders, this can
last several seconds.
Choking, scalping and / or lacerations can occur if loose clothing,
gloves, jewellery, neck ware and hair are not kept away from tool and
accessories.

Failure of the accessory or abrasive, or of the workpiece, can generate
high-velocity projectiles. Even small projectiles can injure eyes and
cause blindness.
Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection when involved
with or near the operation, repair or maintenance of the tool or changing
accessories on the tool.
Be sure all others in the area are wearing impact-resistant eye and face
protection
Daily measure the speed of a rotary sander or polisher with a tachometer
to make sure that it is not greater than the RPM marked on the backing
pad, drum or abrasive.
Ensure that the backing pad / abrasive is securely clamped to the sander
using the tools provided.
Ensure that the workpiece is securely fixed.

Always shut off air supply, relieve hose of air pressure and disconnect
tool from air supply when changing accessories.
Use only recommended sizes and types of accessories and consumables.
Never use a backing pad, drum or abrasive with a permitted speed lower
than the air sander speed.
Never mount a grinding or cutting-off wheel on a sander. A grinding wheel that
bursts can cause very serious injury or death when not properly guarded.
Use only coated abrasive sanding discs or sheets properly secured
to the backing pad provided with the air sander. Ensure that self-fixing
sanding discs are mounted concentrically.

Operators and maintenance personnel must be physically able to handle
the bulk, weight and power of the tool.
Hold the tool correctly: be ready to counteract normal or sudden move-
ments – have both hands available.
You can be cut, pinched or burned if you come into contact with the
sanding pad, abrasive or the work surface. Avoid contact and wear suit-
able gloves to protect hands.
Inspect backing pad before each use. Do not use if cracked or broken, or
if it has been dropped.
Never run the tool unless the abrasive is applied to the workpiece.
There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if used on plastic and other non-
conductive materials.
When using a tool that is designed to have a guard, the guard should be
in place to offer protection from grinding swarf and other debris.

When using a power tool to perform work-related activities, the operator
might experience discomfort in the hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or
other parts of the body.
Adopt a comfortable posture whilst maintaining secure footing and avoid-
ing awkward or off-balance postures. Changing posture during extended
tasks can help avoid discomfort and fatigue.
Do not ignore symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain,
throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or stiffness.
Stop using the tool, tell your employer and consult a physician.

High sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss and other prob-
lems such as tinnitus. Use hearing protection as recommended by your
employer or occupational health and safety regulations.
Exposure to vibration can cause disabling damage to the nerves and
blood supply of the hands and arms. Wear warm clothing and keep your
hands warm and dry. If numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the skin
occurs, stop using tool, tell your employer and consult a physician.
Hold the tool in a light but safe grip because the risk from vibration is
generally greater when the grip force is higher. Where possible support
the weight of the tool with a balancer.
To prevent unnecessary increases in noise and vibration levels:
- Operate and maintain the tool, and select, maintain and replace the ac-
cessories and consumables, in accordance with this instruction manual;
- Use damping materials to prevent workpieces from “ringing”.
