ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

FOR ABRASIVE FINISHING MACHINES

1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is

completely assembled and installed according to

the instructions. A machine incorrectly assembled

can cause serious injury.

2. OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or

another qualified person if you are not thoroughly

familiar with the operation of this machine.

Knowledge is safety.

3. FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended

electrical connections to prevent shock or electrocu-

tion.

4. NEVER TURN THE MACHINE “ON” before

clearing the table/work area of all objects (tools,

scraps of wood, etc.). Flying debris is dangerous.

5. NEVER TURN THE MACHINE “ON” with the work-

piece contacting the abrasive surface. Kickback can

occur.

6. THIS MACHINE CAN BE USED FOR

PROCESSING WOOD OR

METAL PRODUCTS:

However, combining both wood dust and metal

filings can create a fire hazard. In addition

combining aluminum dust with metal dust can

create a fire hazard. Before processing different

types of materials, such as wood, steel, and

aluminum, clean machine and dust collector to

avoid a fire hazard. DO NOT sand or polish

magnesium. It could catch on fire.

7. COVER THE POWER TAKE-OFF SHAFT when not

using accessories. Unguarded rotating shafts can

create an entanglement hazard which can result in

injury.

8. USE A DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM. Some types

of materials are known to cause disease or other

health problems.

9. CLEAN THE MACHINE and dust collector thoroughly

when processing different types of workpieces

(wood, steel, or aluminum). Combining wood and

metal dust can create an explosion or fire hazard.

DO NOT SAND OR POLISH MAGNESIUM. Fire will

result.

10. PREVENT THE WORKPIECE from contacting the

sanding belt before starting the tool. Loss of control

of the workpiece is dangerous.

11. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND

POSITIONS. A sudden slip could cause a hand to

move into the abrasive disc or belt.

12. MAINTAIN A MAXIMUM CLEARANCE OF 1/16" be-

tween the table and the abrasive disc. The

workpiece could be drawn into the space between

the abrasive disc and the table.

13. SUPPORT THE WORKPIECE firmly with a miter

gauge, backstop, or work table when sanding with a

belt. Hold the workpiece firmly. Loss of control of the

workpiece can result in injury.

14. AVOID KICKBACK by sanding in accordance with

the directional arrows. Feed the workpiece against

the downward rotation side of the disc or the

forward rotation of the belt. Loss of control of the

workpiece can result in injury.

15. DO NOT SAND very small or very thin workpieces

that cannot be safely controlled. Loss of control of

the workpiece can result in injury.

16. PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE WORK-

PIECES. Loss of control of the workpiece is dan-

gerous.

17. NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, ASSEMBLY, OR SET-UP

WORK on the table/work area when the machine is

running. A sudden slip could cause a hand to move

into the abrasive surface. Severe injury can result.

18. TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the

machine from the power source, and clean the

table/work area before leaving the machine. LOCK

THE SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION to prevent

unauthorized use. Someone else might accidentally

start the machine and cause injury to themselves.

19. DO NOT insert fingers or foreign objects into the

dust intake port. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers,

and all body parts away from openings and moving

parts of the dust collector.

20. DO NOT use with any opening blocked; keep

openings free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that

may reduce air flow.

21. NEVER operate the dust collector without the dust

collection bag in place and properly secured.

22. ALWAYS use intake caps to cover unused dust

ports when the dust collector is not in use.

23. PERIODICALLY INSPECT dust bag for any cuts,

rips or tears. NEVER operate the dust collector with

a damaged bag or vacuum hose.

24. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION regarding the safe

and proper operation of power tools (i.e. a safety

video) is available from the Power Tool Institute,

refer to the American National Standards Institute

ANSI 01.1 Safety Requirements for Woodworking

Machines and the U.S. Department of Labor OSHA
