safety regulations that apply in your coun
try.
–
Wear suitable personal protective equip
ment: Ear protection and safety goggles.
– Wear a P2 respiratory mask to protect
your health. In enclosed spaces, ensure
that there is sufficient ventilation and con
nect a mobile dust extractor.
– Clean using materials soaked in oils, e.g.
abrasive pad or polishing felt with water,
and spread them out to dry. Materials
soaked in oil may ignite spontaneously.
– Caution: Fire hazard! Prevent the material
being sanded and the sander from over
heating. Always empty the dust container
before taking breaks from work. Grinding
dust in the filter bag and/or in the filter of
the mobile dust extractor may ignite spon
taneously under unfavourable conditions,
such as flying sparks, when sanding. There
is a particular risk if the sanding dust is
mixed with clear coats or polyurethane res
idues or other chemical substances and the
material being sanded becomes hot after it
has been worked on for a long time.
– Metals and materials that contain asbestos
must not be processed. Sparks may be cre
ated in the dust bag when processing met
als. This increases the risk of fire.
– If the power tool is dropped or falls, check
for damage to the machine and sanding
pad. Remove the sanding pad for closer
inspection. Have the damaged parts re
paired before use. Broken sanding pads
and damaged machines can cause injuries
and machine instability.
– Always use original Festool sanding pads.
Sanding pads from other manufacturers
are not suitable for the sander speed and
may break.
– An electrostatic charge may build up when
using the long-life dust bag. If possible,
always use the power tool with an anti-
static suction hose (AS). A slight electric
shock may cause you to panic briefly and
become distracted, which may result in an
accident.
2.3 Emission levels
The levels determined in accordance with
EN 62841 are typically:
Sound pressure level L
PA
= 73 dB(A)
Sound power level L
WA
= 84 dB(A)
Uncertainty K = 3 dB
CAUTION
Noise generated when working
Risk of damage to hearing
► Use ear protection.
Vibration emission level a
h
(vector sum for
three directions) and uncertainty K measured in
accordance with EN 62841:
Vibration emission value (3-ax
is)
a
h
= 3.5 m/s
2
K = 2.0 m/s
2
The specified emission levels (vibration, noise)
– are used to compare machines.
– They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise
load during operation.
– They represent the primary applications of
the power tool.
CAUTION
The emission values may deviate from the
specified values. This is dependent on how
the tool is used and the type of workpiece
being machined.
► The actual load during the entire operating
cycle must be evaluated.
► Depending on the actual load, suitable pro
tective measures must be defined in order
to protect the operator.
3 Intended use
The sanders are designed for sanding wood,
plastic, composites, paint/varnish, filler and
similar materials as directed. Metals and mate
rials that contain asbestos must not be pro
cessed.
To guarantee electrical safety, the machine
must not be damp or operated in a damp envi
ronment. The machine must only be used for
dry sanding.
The user is liable for improper or non-in
tended use.
