2.2 Machine-related safety instructions
- The manufacturer’s handling and processing
instructions must be observed without fail if
explosive or self-igniting dusts are likely to oc-
cur during sanding.
- If dust dangerous to health is produced during
sanding, the machine should be connected to
an appropriate extraction device and the safety
regulations that apply to the working material
should be observed.
- The operating pressure should not exceed 6.5 bar.
- The machine should only be operated with
sandpaper. Grinding wheels and parting grinder
discs are not permitted.
- Only work with correctly processed com-
pressed air. Using the Festool service unit VE
guarantees this.
- Only use original Festool accessories.
- Wear suitable protection such as ear protection,
safety goggles, a dust mask for work which gen-
erates dust, and protective gloves when working
with raw materials and when changing tools.
- The permissible rotational speed of the acces-
sory must be at least as high as the maximum
speed specifi ed on the machine. Accessories
that rotate faster than the permissible level can
rupture.
- Proceed with caution in unfamiliar surround-
ings that may contain electricity or other supply
cables that harbour hidden dangers. Make sure
that there are no electrical cables, gas pipelines
or similar that, if damaged, could pose a hazard
when the machine is used.
2.3 Residual risks
In spite of compliance with all relevant design
regulations, dangers may still present them-
selves when the machine is operated, e.g.:
• Workpiece parts being thrown off,
• Parts of damaged tools being thrown off,
• Noise emission,
• Sawdust emission.
