Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. [. . . ] An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to sander safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury. Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury. Maximum operating speed of accessories should be higher 3 Than the highest no load speed marked on the tool's nameplate. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. Check the backing pad carefully for cracks, damage or deformity before operation. replace cracked , damaged or deformed pad immediately. NEVER use tool with wood cutting blades or other sawblades. Such blades when used on a sander frequently kick and cause loss of control leading to personal injury. Make sure the abrasive disc is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on. When sanding metal surfaces, watch out for flying sparks. Hold the tool so that sparks fly away from you and other persons or flammable materials. Do not touch the workpiece immediately after operation; it may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. check that the workpiece is properly supported.
