HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION
5.2 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SANDERS
Important: Draper Tools Limited recommends that this machine should not be modified or used for
any application other than that for which it was designed. If you are unsure of its relative
applications do not hesitate to contact us in writing and we will advise you.
Warning! Some materials may contain toxic chemicals that sanding operations would disturb e.g.
lead painted surfaces. Exposure to these compounds can endanger the health of the operator or
bystanders. It is important that you wear appropriate safety equipment to protect yourself from
exposure to these substances. If in doubt, consult a professional.
Take care to adequately ventilate the work area and take steps to exclude or protect anybody
working in the vicinity.
– Always wear a dust mask and suitable eye protection with sanders.
– Connect dust extraction equipment. If the tool is provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collecting equipment, ensure these are connected and properly used.
– Ensure that you don't wear any loose clothing or anything else that could get caught in the
machine during operation.
5.3 RESIDUAL RISK
Important: Although the safety instructions and operating manuals for our tools contain extensive
instructions of safe working with power tools, every power tool involves a certain residual risk
which can not be completely excluded by safety mechanisms. Power tools must therefore always
be operated with caution!
