2.2 Tool-specifi c safety rules
- Always wear protective goggles because of pos-
sible dangers when sanding.
- The manufacturer’s handling and processing
instructions must be observed without fail if ex-
plosive or self-igniting dusts are likely to occur
during sanding.
- Harmful/toxic dusts can occur during your work
(e.g. lead-containing paint, some types of wood
and metal). Contact with these dusts, especially
inhaling them, can represent a hazard for operat-
ing personnel or persons in the vicinity. Comply
with the safety regulations that apply in your
country. Connect the electric power tool to a suit-
able extraction system. To protect your health,
wear a P2 protective mask.
2.3 Noise and vibration information
The typical values determined in accordance with
EN 60745 are:
Sound-pressure level 70 dB(A)
Sound-power level 81 dB(A)
Measuring uncertainty allowance K = 3 dB

Overall vibration levels (vector sum for three
directions) measured in accordance with EN
60745:
Vibration emission level (3-axis) a

Uncertainty K = 2.0 m/s²
The emission values specifi ed (vibration, noise)
were measured in accordance with the test con-
ditions stipulated in EN 60745 and are intended
for machine comparisons. They are also used for
making preliminary estimates regarding vibration
and noise loads during operation.
The emission values specifi ed refer to the main
applications for which the power tool is used. If
the electric power tool is used for other applica-
tions, with other tools or is not maintained suf-
fi ciently prior to operation, however, the vibration

1 Intended use
As specifi ed, the machines are designed for sand-
ing wood, plastic, stone, composite materials,
paint/varnish, fi ller and similar materials. Metal
and materials containing asbestos must not be
processed.
The machine is particularly suitable for processing
smaller surfaces and overhead work because of its
size, its weight and its output.
For reasons of electrical safety the machine must
not be damp nor operated in a humid environment.
The machine may only be used for dry sanding.
The user is liable for damage and injury
resulting from incorrect usage!
