Specific Safety
Additional Safety Instructions for Pneumatic Power
Tools
Air under pressure can cause severe injury:
• Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and disconnect tool from air supply when
not in use, before changing accessories or when making repairs
• Never direct air at yourself or anyone else
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings
• Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings) are used, lock pins should be installed and
whipcheck safety cables should be used to safeguard against possible hose-to-tool or hose-to-
hose connection failure
• Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated on the tool
• Never carry an air tool by the hose
Sanding Tool Safety
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment, including a dust mask with a minimum FFP2
rating, safety goggles and ear defenders.
• Ensure all people in the vicinity of the work area are also equipped with suitable personal
protective equipment
• Take special care when sanding some woods (such as beech, oak, mahogany and teak), as the
dust produced is toxic and can cause extreme reactions
• Do not sand magnesium or alloys containing a high percentage of magnesium
• Be aware of paint finishes or treatments that may have been applied to the material that is
being sanded. Many treatments can create dust that is toxic, or otherwise harmful. If working on
a building constructed prior to 1960, there is an increased chance of encountering lead-based
paints
• The dust produced when sanding lead-based paints is particularly hazardous to children,
pregnant women, and people with high blood pressure. Do not allow these people near to the
work area, even if wearing appropriate personal protective equipment
• Whenever possible, use a vacuum dust extraction system to control dust and waste
• Be especially careful when using a machine for both wood and metal sanding. Sparks from metal
can easily ignite wood dust. Always clean your machine thoroughly to reduce the risk of fire
• Work surfaces and sandpaper can become very hot during use, if there is evidence of burning
(smoke or ash), from the work surface, stop and allow the material to cool. Do not touch work
surface or sandpaper until they have had time to cool
• Do not touch the moving sanding disc
• Always switch off before you put the sander down
• Always disconnect the sander from the air supply before changing or replacing sanding discs
• Even when this tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. If
you are in any doubt as to safe use of this tool, do not use it

Before Use
Fitting the quick connector
Note: This tool is supplied with two different male airline quick connectors:
EQ-4 – commonly used in Europe
EN-6 – mainly used in the UK
EQ-4
Europe
• Please choose the connector that is compatible with the airline system you are using, and install
as outlined below:
1. Apply some PTFE tape (not included) to the screw threads of the Quick Connector (5).
This will help to maintain an air tight seal
Note: Apply PTFE tape tightly and in a clockwise direction, so it does not come off when the thread
is screwed into the tool.
2. Remove the protective plug from the air inlet
3. Using a spanner (not included) screw the quick connector into the air inlet located at the
base of the handle
4. Connect to airline, pressurise carefully and carry out a leak check (e.g. by spraying small
amounts of soapy water on to the outside of the connectors)
• Air lines fitted with matching female quick connectors will now be a push fit to the tool
