Woodstock W1687 instruction manual Keep proper footing and balance at all times

13.Use correct tool. Do not force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

14.Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry, keep long hair tied up, etc.

15.Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Before turning the machine on, make it a habit to check that all adjusting keys and wrenches have been removed.

16.Use proper extension cord. Examine the extension cord to ensure it is in good condition. Use the chart below to determine the correct length and gauge of extension cord needed for your particular needs. The amp rating of the motor can be found on its nameplate. If the motor is dual voltage, be sure to use the amp rating for the voltage you will be using. If you use an extension cord with an undersized gauge or one that is too long, excessive heat will be generated within the circuit increas- ing the chance of a fire or damage to the circuit. Never use an extension cord that does not have a ground pin and connected ground wire. Immediately replace an extension cord if it shows any signs of damage.

17.Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

18.Do not leave machine unattended. Wait until it comes to a complete stop before leaving the area.

19.Perform machine maintenance and care. Follow lubrication and accessory attachment instructions in the manual.

20.Keep machine away from open flame. Operating machines near pilot lights and/or open flames cre- ates a high risk if dust is dispersed in the area. Dust particles and an ignition source may cause an explosion. Do not operate the machine in high-risk areas, including but not limited to, those men- tioned above.

21.If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Then contact our service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.

22.Habits—good and bad—are hard to break. Develop good habits in your shop and safety will become second-nature to you.
