Shop Preparation
• Edge Sander Location: Choose a location
where if a workpiece should be projected,
bystanders will not be struck. Take all nec-
essary safety precautions.
• Working Clearances: Consider your current
and future needs with respect to size of
lumber to be processed at each machine,
space for auxiliary stands, work tables, and
other machinery.
•Lighting: Make sure your lighting eliminates
shadows and prevents eye strain.
• Outlets: Make sure electrical circuits are
dedicated or large enough to handle the
amperage requirements of the new machin-
ery. Electrical outlets should be located
near each machine so power or extension
cords are clear of high-traffic areas.
Make sure all shop entrances
are locked and machines are
equipped with safety lock-
out devices when not in use.
Never allow untrained peo-
ple in your shop! Otherwise,
injury or death can occur.
Cleaning
The Model W1688 table and other unpainted
parts are coated with a waxy grease for corro-
sion protection. For the best machine perform-
ance, clean all moving parts and coated sur-
faces. Remove this grease with a solvent clean-
er or a citrus-based degreaser. Do not use chlo-
rine-based solvents—if you splash these solvents
onto a painted surface, you will ruin painted and
plastic finishes.
Before cleaning the machine, read and under-
stand the following Warnings and Caution:
Never use flammables
such as gas or other petro-
leum-based solvents to
clean your machine.
These products have low
flash points and present
the risk of explosion and
severe personal injury!
Never smoke while using
cleaning solvents. Smoking
may cause explosion or
risk of fire when exposed
to these products!
Most solvents used to
clean machinery are
toxic when inhaled or
ingested. When using
these products, work in a
well ventilated area and
keep away from any
potential ignition sources
(pilot lights). Always dis-
pose of any waste rags in
a sealed container to
make sure they do not
cause fire or environ-
mental hazards.
Beginning
The main components of the Model W1688 are
assembled at the factory; however, some
assembly is required. The following series of
instructions are the recommended sequence for
final assembly.
Keep your machine
unplugged during all
assembly, adjustments,
or maintenance proce-
dures. Otherwise serious
personal injury may
occur!
