Clean Up

Unpainted surfaces may be coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during ship- ment. Remove this waxy oil with a solvent clean- er or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some parts may need to be removed. The machine will operate best when the waxy oil is removed from all moving and sliding parts. Chlorine-based cleaners and solvents will dam- age the painted surfaces of the machine. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

Gasoline or petroleum products used to clean the machinery could explode causing serious personal injury. DO NOT use gasoline or petrole- um products to clean the machinery.

Smoking near solvents could ignite an explosion or fire causing serious injury. DO NOT smoke while using solvents.

Lack of ventilation while using solvents could cause serious personal health risks, fire, or environmental hazards. Always work in a well ventilated areas to pre- vent the accumulation of dangerous fumes. Supply the work area with a constant supply of fresh air using a fan.

Site Considerations

Weight Load

The Model H3118 is a small weight load with a small footprint. Most shop floors and workbench- es should be sufficient to carry the weight of the machine. Reinforce the workbench if you question its ability to support the weight.

Working Clearance

Working clearances can be thought of as the dis- tances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without lim- itation. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient room to safely run your machines in any foreseeable operation. The Model H3118 may splash water around the work area. DO NOT let water from the operation of the Model H3118 get on or near any other electrical machines or tools. Keep a safe distance between the Model H3118 and all other electrical machines and tools.

Lighting

Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadows and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle combined motor amp loads. Be sure to follow local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting or circuits.

Unsupervised children and visitors entering a shop could receive seri- ous personal injury. Ensure child and visitor safety by keeping all entrances to the shop locked at all times. DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in the shop at any time.
