GENERAL SAFETY RULES

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

USING THIS EQUIPMENT. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,

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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ THE INSTRUCTION MAN-

UAL 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 NOT

safety glasses. USE CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT.

Eye protection equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1

standards. Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI

S3.19standards.

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 rec-

ommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long

hair.

4. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE IN A DANGEROUS ENVI-

RONMENT. The use of power tools in damp or wet loca-

tions 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. MAINTAIN ALL 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 prop-

erly repaired or replaced. Damaged parts can cause fur-

ther damage to the machine and/or injury.

7. KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches

invite accidents.

8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Your shop is a poten-

tially dangerous environment. Children and visitors can be injured.

9. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make

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

ging in the power cord. In the event of a power failure,

move the switch to the “OFF” position. An 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 exten-

sion 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 small-

er 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 work-

piece can cause injury.

16. FEED THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE DIRECTION OF THE

ROTATION OF THE BLADE, CUTTER, OR ABRASIVE SUR-

FACE. 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 UNATTENDED.

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 PAD-

LOCKS, 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 MEDICATION. A moment of

inattention while operating power tools may result in injury.

24. USE OF THIS TOOL CAN GENERATE AND

DISBURSE DUST OR OTHER AIRBORNE PARTICLES,

INCLUDING WOOD DUST, CRYSTALLINE SILICA DUST

AND ASBESTOS 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 wherev-

er possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and per-

manent respiratory or other injury, 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 approved respiratory protection appropriate for

the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and

water.
