ASSEMBLY

Shop Preparation

Floor Load and Balance: Your sander represents a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for the sander. Some residential floors may require additional bracing to support both machine and operator. Make sure the sander operates on a level surface by placing a level gauge on the conveyor table and using a wrench to adjust the feet until the machine is level.

Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your sander.

Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadows and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle amperage requirements. Outlets should be located near each machine so any power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

MAKE SURE that all entrances to your shop are locked or that machines are equipped with safety lock-out devices to protect curious children or visitors from serious injury. Never allow unsupervised people in your shop who have not been fully trained!

Cleaning Machine

The upper roller of the Model W1709 is coated with a waxy grease that protects it from corrosion during shipment. This coating must be removed before using your sander.

Clean this grease off with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. Do not use chlorine- based solvents—if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you will ruin the finish.

NEVER use flammables such as gas or other petroleum-based solvents to clean your machine. These products have low flash points and present the risk of explosion and severe personal injury!

NEVER smoke when using solvents. Smoking may cause explosion or risk of fire when exposed to these products!

WORK in a well ventilated area when using solvents, and keep away from any potential ignition sources (pilot lights). Most solvents used to clean machinery are toxic when inhaled or ingested. When using these products, Always dispose of any waste rags in a sealed container to make sure they do not cause fire or environmental hazards.
