Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all machinery, there
are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with respect and caution will consid-
erably lessen the possiblity of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal
injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as guards, push sticks, hold-downs, featherboards, goggles,
dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your potential for injury. But even the best guard won’t make up for poor
judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in the workshop. If a procedure
feels dangerous, don’t try it. Figure out an alternative procedure that feels safer. REMEMBER: Your personal safety is your
responsibility.

modified and/or used for any application other than that for which it was designed. If you have any questions relative to
a particular application, DO NOT use the machine until you have first contacted Delta to determine if it can or should be

SAFETY RULES
WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES
MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY
1. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ INSTRUCTION
MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE TOOL. Learn the
tool's application and limitations as well as the specific
hazards peculiar to it.
2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
4. GROUND ALL TOOLS. If tool is equipped with three-
prong plug, it should be plugged into a three-hole electri-
cal receptacle. If an adapter is used to accommodate a
two-prong receptacle, the adapter lug must be attached
to a known ground. Never remove the third prong.
5. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from tool before turning it “on.”
6. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
7. DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them
to rain. Keep work area well-lighted.
8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Children
and visitors should be kept a safe distance from work
area.
9. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF - with padlocks,
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
10. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and be
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
11. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attachment to
do a job for which it was not designed.
12. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. No loose clothing, gloves,
neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry to get caught in
moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
13. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Wear safety glass-
es (must comply with ANSI Z87.1). Everyday eyeglasses
only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety
glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty.
14. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work
when practical. It's safer than using your hand and frees
both hands to operate tool.
15. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times.

sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
17. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and when
changing accessories such as blades, bits, cutters, etc.
18. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The use of
accessories and attachments not recommended by Delta
may cause hazards or risk of injury to persons.
19. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL START-
ING. Make sure switch is in “OFF” position before plug-
ging in power cord.
20. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur
if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally
contacted.
21. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function - check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced.

ter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter
only.
