SAFETY RULES

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 con-

siderably lessen the possiblity of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, per-

sonal 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 per-

sonal safety is your responsibility.

This machine was designed for certain applications only. Delta Machinery strongly recommends that this machine not

be modified and/or used for any application other than that for which it was designed. If you have any questions rela-

tive to a particular application, DO NOT use the machine until you have first contacted Delta to determine if it can or

should'be performed on the product.

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

electrical receptacle. If an adapter is used to accommo-

date 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. All chil-

dren and visitors should be kept a safe distance from

work area.

locks, 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.

to do a job for which it was not designed.

gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry to get

caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recom-

mended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long

hair.

13. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Wear safety

glasses (must comply with ANSI Z87.1). Everyday eye-

glasses 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.

Follow instructions for lubricating and changing acces-

sories.

17. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and when

changing accessories such as blades, bits, cutters, etc.

18. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The use of

improper accessories 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 acci-

dentally 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 dam-

aged should be properly repaired or replaced.

22. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or

cuttter against the direction of rotation of the blade or

cutter only.
