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. FIRE HAZARD 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 IN.
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
dangerous.
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.
