electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury or property damage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ THE INSTRUCTION

M A N U A L BEFORE OPERATING THE MACHINE. Learning

the machine’s application, limitations, and specific

hazards will greatly minimize the possibility of accidents

and injury.

2. WEAR EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION. ALWAYS

USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses are

N O T safety glasses. USE CERTIFIED SAFETY

EQUIPMENT. Eye protection equipment should comply

with ANSI Z87.1 standards. Hearing equipment should

comply with ANSI S3.19 standards.

3. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,

gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which

may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is

recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain

long hair.

4. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE IN A DANGEROUS

ENVIRONMENT. The use of power tools in damp or wet

locations or in rain can cause shock or electrocution.

Keep your work area well-lit to prevent tripping or placing

arms, hands, and fingers in danger.

5. M A I N TAIN A L L TOOLS AND MACHINES IN PEAK

CONDITION. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest

performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing

accessories. Poorly maintained tools and machines can further

damage the tool or machine and/or cause injury.

6. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Before using the machine,

check for any damaged parts. Check for alignment of

moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,

and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A

guard or any other part that is damaged should be

properly repaired or replaced. Damaged parts can

cause further damage to the machine and/or injury.

7. K E E P THE WORK A R E A CLEAN. Cluttered areas and

benches invite accidents.

8. K E E P CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Your shop is a

potentially dangerous environment. Children and visitors can be

i n j u r e d .

9. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONALS TA R T I N G . Make

sure that the switch is in the “OFF” position before

plugging in the power cord. In the event of a power

failure, move the switch to the “OFF” position. A n

accidental start-up can cause injury.

10. USE THE GUARDS. Check to see that all guards are in

place, secured, and working correctly to reduce the risk

of injury.

11. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES

BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE. Tools, scrap

pieces, and other debris can be thrown at high speed,

causing injury.

12. USE THE RIGHT MACHINE. Don’t force a machine or

an attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.

13. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The use of

accessories and attachments not recommended by Delta

may cause damage to the machine or injury to the user.

14. USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure

your extension cord is in good condition. When using an

extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to

carry the current your product will draw. An undersized

cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of

power and overheating. See the Extension Cord Chart

for the correct size depending on the cord length and

nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next

heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the

heavier the cord.

15. SECURE THE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold

the workpiece when practical. Loss of control of a

workpiece can cause injury.

16. FEED THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE DIRECTION OF

THE ROTATION OF THE BLADE, CUTTER, OR A B R A S I V E

S U R FA C E . Feeding it from the other direction will cause

the workpiece to be thrown out at high speed.

17. DON’T FORCE THE WORKPIECE ON THE MACHINE.

Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.

18. DON’T OVERREACH. Loss of balance can make you fall

into a working machine, causing injury.

19. NEVER STAND ON THE MACHINE. Injury could occur if the

tool tips, or if you accidentally contact the cutting tool.

20. NEVER LEAVE THE MACHINE RUNNING UNAT T E N D E D .

TURN THE POWER OFF. Don’t leave the machine until it comes

to a complete stop. A child or visitor could be injured.

21. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, AND DISCONNECT THE

MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE before installing

or removing accessories, before adjusting or changing

set-ups, or when making repairs. An accidental start-up

can cause injury.

22. MAKE YOUR WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF WITH

PADLOCKS, MASTER SWITCHES, OR BY REMOVING

STARTER KEYS. The accidental start-up of a machine

by a child or visitor could cause injury.

23. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND

USE COMMON SENSE. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE

WHEN YOU ARE TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE

OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICAT-ION. A moment

of inattention while operating power tools may result in

injury.

24. USE OF THIS TO O L CAN GENERAT E

AND DISBURSE DUST OR OTHER A I R B O R N E

PARTICLES, INCLUDING WOOD DUST, CRY S TA L L I N E

S I L I C A DUST AND A S B E S T OS DUST. Direct particles

away from face and body. Always operate tool in well

ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use

dust collection system wherever possible. Exposure to the

dust may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other

i n j u r y, including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and

death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged

contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or

eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful

material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA a p p r o v e d

respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure, and

wash exposed areas with soap and water.
