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 ABRASIVE SURFACE. Feeding it from

the other direction will cause the workpiece to be thrown

out a 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

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

MEDICATION. A moment of inattention while operating

power tools may result in injury.

24. THE DUST GENERATED by certain woods and

wood products can be injurious to your health. Always

operate machinery in well-ventilated areas, and provide

for proper dust removal. Use wood dust collection

systems whenever possible.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

FOR ABRASIVE FINISHING MACHINES

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.

1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE UNTIL it is

assembled and installed according to the

instructions.

2. OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor,

or another qualified person if you are not familiar

with the operation of this machine.

3. FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended

electrical connections.

4. USE THE GUARDS WHENEVER POSSIBLE.

Check to see that they are in place, secured, and

working correctly.

5. CHECK BELTS for wear and tension. If the belt is

damaged or can’t be tensioned properly, replace it.

6. CHECK FOR CORRECT BELT INSTALLATION,

and insure that the belt is tracking properly.

7. KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from

abrasive surfaces.

8. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND

POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause a

hand to contact the sanding surface.

9. NEVER WEAR GLOVES or hold the workpiece

with a rag when sanding.

10. NEVER START THE MACHINE with the

workpiece against the sanding surface.

11. NEVER START THE MACHINE before clearing the

table of all objects (tools, scrap pieces, etc.).

12. MAINTAIN MINIMUM CLEARANCE between the

table and the sanding surface.

13. USE A BACKSTOP when using the belt finishing

machine in a horizontal position.

14. FEED THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE

ROTATION OF THE SANDING SURFACE. Hold

the workpiece securely on the table.

15. USE A DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM.

16. CLEAN THE MACHINE AND DUST

COLLECTION SYSTEM THOROUGHLY BEFORE

AND AFTER SANDING METAL. Combining wood

dust and metal filings (or aluminum filings and

metal filings) can create a fire hazard. DO NOT

sand magnesium. It is highly flammable.

17. FOR DRUM SANDERS, DO NOT SAND

WORKPIECES SHORTER THAN 7" or thinner

than 1/32".

18. PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE

workpieces.

19. DISCONNECT THE MACHINE from the power

source before installing or removing accessories,

before adjusting or changing set-ups, or when making

repairs.

20. 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.
