SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS

1. Hold tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

2.Use proper safety equipment. Wear safety goggles for eye protection, wear hearing protection, and wear a protective mask to minimize breathing in the fine dust created while sanding.

3.Sanding of lead-based paint is not recommended. Lead-based paint should only be removed by a professional.

4.Always maintain a firm grip on the belt sander handles with both hands to prevent loss of control.

5.Do not operate belt sander without all guards and covers securely in place.

6.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 S3.19 standards.

7.Take precautions against dust inhalation. 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. Also, use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Dust mask protection should comply with MSHA/NIOSH certified respirator standards. Splinters, air- borne debris, and dust can cause irritation, injury, and/or illness.

8.Some wood contains preservatives which can be toxic. Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these materials. Request and follow any safety information available from your material supplier.
