STATUS XS3-150ET [5/36] Appliance specific safety instructions

APPLIANCE-SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these

instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for op-erations dierent from those intended could

result in a hazardous situation.

SERVICE

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

• Secure the workpiece. A workpiece securely held by a clamping device or vice is much

safer than one held in your hand.

• Do not rest your hands next to or in front of the appliance and the area being worked

as there is a risk of injury if you slip.

• In case of danger, remove the plug from the socket immediately.

• Always route the power cord towards the rear, away from the appliance.

• RISK OF FIRE DUE TO FLYING SPARKS! If you sand metal, sparks will be produced.

Ensure that nobody can be put at risk and that no combustible materials are located in

the immediate vicinity of where you are working.

WARNING! TOXIC VAPOURS!

Working with the tool can produce harmful/toxic dusts that represent a health hazard for

the person operating the appliance and for any other people in the area.

WARNING! DANGER FROM DUST!

When working for extended periods of time on wood and, in particular, materials that

produce dust that is hazardous to health, connect the appliance to an appropriate external

dust extraction appliance. Wear safety goggles and a protective dust mask!

• Provide sucient ventilation when working on plastics, paints, lacquers, etc.

• Do not soak the materials or the area to be processed with liquids containing solvents.

• Never work on moistened materials or damp surfaces.

• Avoid sanding lead paint or other harmful materials.

• Materials containing asbestos may NOT be processed. Asbestos is a known carcinogen.

• Avoid contact with the sanding sheet while the appliance is running!
