Technical information

Belt sander:

Parkside PBS 600 A1

Nominal voltage:

230 V~ 50 Hz

Nom. power input:

600 W

No-load belt speed:

170 - 250 m / min

Sanding belt:

75 x 457 mm

Protection class:

Noise and vibration data:

Measured values for noise are determined in accor- dance with EN 60745. The A-weighted noise level of the electrical power tool are typically:

Sound pressure level:

89 dB(A)

Sound power level:

100 dB(A)

Uncertainty K:

3 dB

Wear ear protection!

Total vibration, EN 60745:

Vibration emission value ah,D = 2,5 m / s2 Uncertainty K = 1.5 m / s2

WARNING! The vibration level given in these instructions has been measured in accordance with a standardised measurement procedure specified in EN 60745 and can be used to compare devices. Different uses of the device give rise to different vi- bration levels and in many cases they may exceed the values given in these instructions. It is easy to underestimate the vibration load if the electrical power tool is used regularly in particular circumstances.

Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment of the vibration loads experienced during a particu- lar period of working, you should also take into account the intervening periods of time when the device is switched off or is running but is not actual- ly in use. This can result in a much lower vibration load over the whole of the period of working.

General safety advice for electrical power tools

WARNING! Read all the safety advice and instructions! Failure to observe the safety advice and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.

KEEP ALL THE SAFETY ADVICE AND INSTRUC- TIONS IN A SAFE PLACE FOR FUTURE REFER- ENCE! THE TERM “ELECTRICAL TOOL” USED IN THE SAFETY ADVICE REFERS TO ELECTRICAL TOOLS POWERED BY MAINS ELECTRICITY (BY MEANS OF A MAINS LEAD) AND ELECTRICAL TOOLS POWERED BY RECHARGEABLE BATTER- IES (WITHOUT A MAINS LEAD).

1. Workplace safety

a)Keep your working area clean and well lit. Untidy or poorly lit working areas can lead to accidents.

b)Do not work with the device

in potentially explosive envi- ronments in which there are

inflammable liquids, gases or dusts. Electrical power tools create sparks, which can ignite dusts or fumes.

c)Keep children and other peo-

ple away while you are op- erating the electrical tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control of the device.

2. Electrical safety

To avoid danger to life from electric shock:

a)The mains plug on the device must match the mains socket. The plug must not be modified in any way. Do not use an adapter plug with devices fitted with a protective earth. Unmodified plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
