or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer or wider
than the basic sander table, or to help feed, support, or pull the
workpiece.
• When finishing on the disc, always press the workpiece against
the “Down” side of the disc. Sanding against the side coming
up from under the table could damage the work by making it
“chatter”, or tear the work from your hands and throw it.
• Sand only one workpiece at a time.
• Clear everything except the workpiece and related sipport
devices off the table before turning the sander on.
Plan the way you will hold the workpiece from start to
finish.
Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden
slip could cause fingers or hand to move into a sanding surface.
Keep fingers away from where the belt goes into the dust trap.
DON`T OVERREACH.
Keep good footing and balance.
Keep your face and body to one side, out of line with a possible
throwback.
WHENEVER SANDER IS RUNNING
WARNING:
Don`t let familiarlty (gained from
frequent use of your belt and disc sander) cause a
careless mistake. A careless fraction of a second is
enough to cause a severe injury.
Before starting your work, watch the sander while it runs. If it
makes an unfamiliar noise or vibrates a lot. stop immediately.
Turn the sander off. Unplug the sander. Do not restart until
finding and correcting the problem.
Make sure the sanding disc turns counterclockwise before using
the sander.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY.
Keep all visitors a safe distance
from the sander. Make sure bystanders are clear of the sander and
workpiece.
DON`T FORCE TOOL.
It will do the job better and safer at its
designed rate. Press the workpiece against the sanding material
only hard enough to let it sand without bogging down or binding.
Before freeing any jammed material:
• Turn switch “OFF”.
• Unplug the sander.
• Wait for all moving parts to stop.
BEFORE LEAVING THE SANDER:
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN
POWER OFF.
Don`t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF.
