Additional Safety Instructions For Sanders

1.MAINTAIN A SECURE GRIP ON THE WORKPIECE. The belt speed is approxi- mately 1800 FPM. If control is lost, the workpiece can be propelled from the machine at extreme speed.

2.CREATE A SAFETY ZONE AROUND THE SANDING SURFACE. If you can't control your workpiece with your hands at least 6" away from the sanding belt, you should create a jig or other device to hold the workpiece safely.

3.REPLACE BELTS WHEN WORN OR DAMAGED. A torn or damaged belt could be unexpectedly expelled from the machine if not replaced.

4.KEEP YOUR WORKPIECE SOLIDLY ON THE SANDER TABLE. A well-secured workpiece is less likely to lose control dur- ing sanding operations.

5.INSPECT MATERIALS FOR DEFECTS. Knots and splinters can shoot from the machine with great force. Make sure defective materials are not used on the belt sander. Foreign objects such as nails and staples should also be removed before sanding.

6.TURN OFF THE SANDER WHEN NOT IN USE. Never leave a machine running unattended.

7.DO NOT stand directly in line with sanding accessories when turning the machine on.

8.DO NOT force the workpiece against the belt during operation. Firmly grasp the workpiece in both hands and ease it against the belt using light pressure.

9.DO NOT wear loose clothing while operat- ing this machine. Roll up sleeves or button sleeves at the cuff.

10.DO NOT place hands near, or in contact with belt during operation.

11.WEAR A DUST MASK OR RESPIRA- TOR when sanding, even if you have a reliable method of dust collection.

12.PERFORM MACHINE INSPECTIONS and maintenance service promptly when called for.

Operating this equipment has the potential to propel debris into the air which can cause eye injury. Always wear safety glass- es or goggles when operating equipment. Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glass- es you wear meet the appropriate stan- dards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

No list of safety guidelines can be com- plete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equip- ment or poor work results.
