ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is
completely assembled and installed according to the
instructions. A machine incorrectly assembled can
cause serious injury.
2. OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or
another qualified person if you are not thoroughly
familiar with the operation of this machine. Knowledge
is safety.
3. FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended
electrical connections to prevent shock or electrocution.
4. NEVER TURN THE MACHINE “ON” before clearing the
table/work area of all objects (tools, scraps of wood,
etc.). Flying debris is dangerous.
5. NEVER TURN THE MACHINE “ON” with the work-
piece contacting the abrasive surface. Kickback can
occur.
6. SECURE THE MACHINE to a supporting surface. Vibration
can cause the machine to slide, walk, or tip over.
7. COVER THE POWER TAKE-OFF SHAFT when not using
accessories. Unguarded rotating shafts can create an
entanglement hazard which can result in injury.
8. USE A DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM. Some types of
wood are known to cause disease or other health
problems.
9. CLEAN THE MACHINE and dust collector thoroughly when
processing different types of workpieces (wood, steel,
or aluminum). Combining wood and metal dust can
create an explosion or fire hazard. DO NOT SAND OR
POLISH MAGNESIUM. Fire will result.
10. PREVENT THE WORKPIECE from contacting the
sanding belt before starting the tool. Loss of control of
the workpiece is dangerous.
11. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND
POSITIONS. A sudden slip could cause a hand to move
into the abrasive disc or belt.
12. MAINTAIN A MAXIMUM CLEARANCE OF 1/16" between
the table and the abrasive disc or belt. The workpiece
could be drawn into the space between the abrasive
disc or belt and the table.
13. SUPPORT THE WORKPIECE firmly with a miter gauge,
backstop, or work table when sanding with a belt. Hold
the workpiece firmly. Loss of control of the workpiece can
result in injury.
14. AVOID KICKBACK by sanding in accordance with the
directional arrows. Feed the workpiece against the
downward rotation side of the disc or the forward
rotation of the belt. Loss of control of the workpiece can
result in injury.
15. DO NOT SAND very small or very thin workpieces that
cannot be safely controlled. Loss of control of the
workpiece can result in injury.
16. PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE WORKPIECES.
Loss of control of the workpiece is dan-gerous.
17. NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, ASSEMBLY, OR SET-UP
WORK on the table/work area when the machine is
running. A sudden slip could cause a hand to move into
the abrasive surface. Severe injury can result.
18. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the machine
from the power source, and clean the table/work area
before leaving the machine. LOCK THE SWITCH IN THE
“OFF” POSITION to prevent unauthorized use. Some-
one else might accidentally start the machine and cause
injury to themselves.
