Clean Up

The unpainted surfaces may be coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thor- oughly, some parts may need to be removed. Avoid chlorine-based solvents as they may dam- age painted surfaces should they come in con- tact. Always follow the manufacturer’s instruc- tions when using any type of cleaning product.

Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with. They have low flash points which make them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these p r o d u c t s a r e u s e d . Serious personal injury may occur.

Do not smoke while using solvents. A risk of explo- sion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury.

Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingest- ed. Always work in well- ventilated areas far from potential ignition sources when dealing with sol- vents. Use care when dis- posing of waste rags and towels to be sure they do not create fire or environ- mental hazards.

Site Considerations

WORKING CLEARANCES

Working clearances can be thought of as the dis- tances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands and/or work tables. Also consider the rel- ative position of each machine to one another for efficient material handling. Be sure to allow your- self sufficient room to safely run your machines in any foreseeable operation.

LIGHTING AND OUTLETS

Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle combined motor amp loads. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or exten- sion cords are not obstructing high-traffic areas. Be sure to observe local electrical codes for prop- er installation of new lighting, outlets or circuits.

Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to children by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. Never allow visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting or operating equip- ment.
