SAFETY NOTICE Continued
WARNING: | Use proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using |
| an extension cord, be sure it is rated for the voltage and current rating of your product. An |
| undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. |
| Table 1 shows the correct wire size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere |
| rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the AWG gauge number, the |
| heavier the cord. |
WARNING: | Dust created during buffing, grinding, sawing, power sanding, drilling, and other activities |
| may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or |
| other reproductive harm. |
WARNING: | Keep children and visitors away. Remove starter keys turn off master switches. Padlock |
| equipment or work area when not in use. |
WARNING: | Never leave buffer running unattended. Always turn power off after use. |
Caution: | Don’t force buffer. It will do the job better and safer at the feed rate for which it was |
| designed. |
Caution: | Use right tool. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. |
Caution: | Maintain buffer with care. Keep buffer clean for best and safest performance. |
| Always use safety glasses with side shields (or full face shield) when operating |
| grinder. Do not use ordinary eyeglasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is |
| dusty. |
| Unsuitable accessories or attachments added to this buffer may introduce hazards. |
| Baldor accessories and attachments are specifically designed to be used with the buffer. |
| Accessories or attachments obtained from another source may cause hazards. Consult the |
| manufacturer before use. |
| Tool rests are not recommended to be used with a buffer. There is the possibility of the |
| work piece becoming caught in the cloth wheel and pulling the operator’s hand into the |
| machine or hurling the work piece away from the machine in a hazardous manner, or both. |
| Use soft cloth wheels only on buffer. When hard (grinding) wheels or wire wheels are |
| used on a buffer, the operator or nearby personnel will not be protected against wheel failure |
| which can result in serious injury. |
| Use soft cloth wheels marked for safe operations at or over the maximum RPM rating |
| on this buffer. Using a wheel rated at a lower RPM than the machine is rated can cause a |
| hazardous condition and result in short wheel life. |
| Buffer is not designed to be used with hard wheels or wire wheels. Bench grinders and |
| grinder−buffers having wheel guards are available for such use and protect the operator from |
| wheel breakage. As wheel breakage is an extremely hazardous condition, under no |
| circumstances should a buffer be used with hard wheels or wire wheels. |
| This buffer is supplied without guards. Operator safety may require guards and other |
| suitable safety devices or procedures. These may be specified in safety codes and should be |
| provided for each polishing application. These are are neither provided by Baldor Electric |
| Company nor are the responsibility of Baldor Electric Company. Safety devices are the |
| responsibility of the end user. |
| If machine should be damaged, discontinue using the buffer until the repairs are made. |
