BUFFING BASICS

FIG. 10
Only work from the “Work Zone”
at the front lower portion of
the Wheel (Fig 7). Subjecting a
workpiece to a point above the
centerline of the Arbor Shaft (Fig
8) can quickly tear the item from
the operator’s hands and propel
the object at over 80 MPH with
great force.

Zone
Always position workpiece edges
so that the wheel is rotating
“off the edge” (Fig 9). NEVER
feed an edge “into” the wheel
(Fig 10). Feeding an edge into
a rotating wheel is extremely
dangerous and will quickly and
violently kick the object back at
the operator causing injury and
damage.
