Makita 9040L Sander User Manual


 
11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging
in.
Carrying
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
12.
Remove adjusting keys or switches before turning the tool on. A wrench or
a
key
that
is left attached to
a
rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
13.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at
all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the tool
in
unexpected situations.
14.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
15. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to
a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable
and may lead to
loss
of control.
16.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will
do the job better and safer
at
the rate for which
it
is designed.
17.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn
it
on or off. Any tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
18.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
19.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20.
Maintain
tools
with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
21.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have
the tool service before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
tools.
22.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
23.
Tool
service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in
a
risk of
injury.
24.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instruc-
tions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts
or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create
a
risk of electric shock
of injury.
