13.  The warnings, precautions, and instructions 
discussed in this instruction manual cannot 
cover all possible conditions and situations 
that may occur.  It must be understood by the 
operator that common sense and caution are 
factors which cannot be built into this product, 
but must be supplied by the operator.
Power Tool Use and Care
1.  Do not force the power tool.  Use the 
correct power tool for your application. 
The correct power tool will do the job better and 
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2.  Do not use the power tool if the Switch 
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool 
that cannot be controlled with the Switch 
is dangerous and must be repaired.
3.  Disconnect the battery pack from the 
power tool before making any adjustments, 
changing accessories, or storing power 
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce 
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4.  Store idle power tools out of the reach of 
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar 
with the power tool or these instructions 
to operate the power tool.  Power tools are 
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
5.  Maintain power tools and accessories.  Check 
for misalignment or binding of moving 
parts, breakage of parts and any other 
condition that may affect the power tool’s 
operation.  If damaged, have the power tool 
repaired before use.  Many accidents are 
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
6.  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.  Properly 
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges 
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7.  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 operations different from those 
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
8.  Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean 
and free from oil and grease.  Slippery handles 
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling 
and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Service
1.  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified 
repair person using only identical replacement 
parts. 
This will ensure that the safety of 
the power tool is maintained.
2.  Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.   
These carry important safety information.   
If unreadable or missing, contact 
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.

Sander Safety Warnings
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, 
because the sanding surface may contact 
its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make 
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and 
could give the operator an electric shock.
Battery Tool Use and Care
1.  Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the 
switch is in the off-position before connecting 
to battery pack, picking up or carrying the 
power tool. Carrying the power tool with your 
finger on the switch or energizing power tool 
that have the switch on invites accidents.
2.  Disconnect the battery pack from the 
power tool before making any adjustments, 
changing accessories, or storing power tool. 
Such preventive safety measures reduce the 
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
3.  Recharge only with the charger specified by 
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable 
for one type of battery pack may create a risk 
of fire when used with another battery pack.
4.  Use power tools only with specifically 
designated battery packs. Use of any other 
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
5.  When battery pack is not in use, keep it away 
from other metal objects, like paper clips, 
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal 
objects, that can make a connection from 
one terminal to another. Shorting the battery 
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
6.  Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected 
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact 
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts 
eyes, additionally seek medical help.  Liquid ejected 
from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
7.  Do not use a battery pack or power tool that 
is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified 
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior 
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
