J When undertaking prolonged sanding of wood, and in particular when working on materials that give rise to dusts that are hazardous to health, the sander must be connected to a suitable external dust extraction device. J Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when working on plastic, paint, varnish etc. J The belt sander is designed for the dry sanding of large surfaces of wood, plastic, metal and plaster and painted surfaces. The device is to be used for dry sanding only. J Do not sand materials containing asbestos. Asbestos is a known carcinogen. WarNING! POISONOUS DUSTS! Sanding paints containing lead, some types of wood and metal for example may give rise to hazardous or poisonous dusts and represents a risk to the health of the person operating the device and to anyone near the work area. Wear safety glasses and a dust protection mask! J Securely support the workpiece. Use clamps or a vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much safer than holding it with your hand. J Never support yourself by placing your hands near or in front of the device or the workpiece surface. A slip can result in injury. J If a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains plug immediately out of the mains socket. J Always work with the mains lead leading away from the rear of the device. J Avoid contact with the moving sanding belt. J Do not work on moistened materials or damp surfaces. J Always switch on the device before placing it against the workpiece. After sanding, lift the device from the workpiece before switching it off. J When working always hold the device securely with both hands (see Fig. D). Always keep proper footing and balance. GB/IE/CY General safety advice for electrical power tools/Preparing for use J Switch the device off and allow it to come to a complete standstill before you put it down. J When taking a break from your work, before carrying out any tasks on the device itself (e.g. changing the sanding belt) and when you are not using the device, always pull the mains plug out of the mains socket. Q Preparing for use Q Tensioning/changing the sanding belt WarNING! rISK OF INjUry! Before you carry out any work on the belt sander always pull the plug out of the mains socket. 1. Then release the tensioner for the sanding belt by moving the tensioning lever 9 fully outwards (see fig. A). The tensioner is now open and the sanding belt can be removed. 2. Next insert a new sanding belt or change the belt for one suitable for a different material or one with a different grit size. IMPOrTaNT: The direction of the arrows on the inside of the sanding belt must agree with that on sander housing. 3. Press the tensioning lever 9 back into its initial position. adjusting the sanding belt: j Pick up the device, switch it on and turn it over. Adjust the belt tracking by turning the adjuster screw 6 until the edge of the sanding belt is flush with and runs parallel to the edge of the device (Fig. B.). IMPOrTaNT: Always make sure that the sanding belt does not cut into the housing. Check the sanding belt regularly and if necessary re-adjust it using the adjuster screw 6 . Q advice on use Light sanding pressure is enough: j Apply light sanding pressure only. The weight of the belt sander alone is adequate to pro duce good sanding results. By adopting this approach you will also prolong the life of your sanding belts and obtain a smoother work- piece surface. Sanding and surfaces: The sanding output and the quality of the surface finish obtained are determined by the belt speed and the grade of grit on the sanding belt (see the section on “Selecting the correct rotational speed and sanding belt”). Sanding procedure: j With the sander switched on, bring it into contact with the workpiece and move it forward carefully. Work in parallel and overlapping widths. Always work in the direction of the grain to avoid undesirable transverse sanding marks. After sanding always lift the device from the workpiece before switching it off. Q Vacuum dust extraction WarNING! DaNGEr OF FIrE! There is the danger of fire when working with electrical devices that have a dustbox or can be connected to a vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the wood dust in the dust collection box (or in the vacuum‘ s dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a result of flying sparks generated when abrading metals or metal objects left in wood. This can happen particularly if the wood dust is mixed with paint residue or other chemicals and the abraded particles are hot from prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must empty the device’s dust collection box and the vacuum cleaner’s dust bag before taking a break or stopping work and always avoid overheating of the abraded particles and the device. Wear a dust mask! Dust extraction using the dust collection box: j Slide the dust collection box 10 on to the dust extraction spout 5 on the side of the device (Fig. C). 10 GB/IE/CY Emptying the dust collection box: j Pull the dust collection box 10 off the dust extraction sp...
