MAKE SURE

 the sander is connected 

to the matched and specific power 
source. 

 

 

ALL THE GUARDS

 must be in place 

while operating the sander to ensure 
operator safety. 

 

 

MAKE SURE

 before making any 

adjustments, the switch is in the “OFF” 
position and the cord is un-plugged from 
the power source.  

 

 

NEVER 

sand more than one work piece 

at a time. 

 

 

DO NOT 

wear loose clothing while 

operating this sander. 

 

 

KEEP YOUR WORK AREA CLEAN. 

Cluttered areas and workbenches 
increase the chance of accidents. 

 

 

NEVER LEAVE

 the sander unattended 

while it is running. 

 

 

KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. 

All visitors 

should be kept at a safe distance from 
the work area. 

 

 

DO NOT 

force the sander. It will do the 

job better and will be safer at the 
operating rate for which it is designed. 

 

 

ALWAYS 

wear a dust mask and safety 

glasses while operating the sander. The 
tiny dust particles produced by the 
sander can cause serious health 
problems.  

 

 

ALWAYS 

inspect the work-piece for 

staples, nails knots or any other foreign 
material before sanding. 

 

 

ALWAYS 

operate the sander in a well-

ventilated area and use a dust collection 
system for dust removal whenever 
possible.  

 

 

ALWAYS 

hold the work piece firmly 

when sanding. When not using the 
table, i.e. sanding free-hand, grip the 
work piece with both hands. 

 

 

USE THE STOP FENCE

 when 

performing horizontal sanding on the 
belt sander. 

 

 

MAINTAIN AND SERVICE 

your sander 

regularly as instructed in this user 
manual. 

 

 

MAKE SURE

 you have read and 

understood all the safety instructions in 
this manual and that you are familiar 
with your CT170N sander, before 
operating. If you fail to do so, serious 
injury could occur.
