Safety Guidelines Specific to Sander
Before Work Begins:
1. Inspect the sanding belt for signs of failure. Replace damaged, overstretched, or worn sanding belts.
2. Ensure the sanding belt is tensioned.
3. Inspect the workpiece. Do not process workpieces with loose parts and/or containing dangerous
chemicals. Do not sand wood with high moisture content.
4. Ensure the table is positioned at least 1/16 ” above the bottom edge of the sanding belt.
5. Ensure the sanding belt guard, platen, and table are locked into position.
When Sanding:
1. Maintain control of the workpiece. Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands and apply light
pressure against the sanding belt. Use the sander table and miter gauge to support the workpiece.
2. Keep hands away from the sanding belt and other moving parts. Use special jigs to hold down small
workpieces as needed.
3. To avoid kickbacks and damaging the sanding belt, do not feed the workpiece with sharp corners
pointing against the moving direction of the sanding belt.
Correct Wrong
After Operation
