RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
1. Do not operate the sander when tired, distracted, or
under the effects of drugs, alcohol or any medication
that impairs reflexes or alertness.
2. The working area should be well lit, clean and free
of debris.
3. Keep children and visitors at a safe distance when
the sander is in operation; do not permit them to
operate the sander.
4. Childproof and tamper proof your shop and all ma-
chinery with locks, master electrical switches and
switch keys, to prevent unauthorized or unsupervised
use.
5. STAY ALERT! Give your work your undivided attention.
Even a momentary distraction can lead to serious
injury.
6. Fine particulate dust is a carcinogen that can be
hazardous to health. Work in a well-ventilated area
and whenever possible use a dust collector and
wear eye, ear and respiratory protection devices.
7. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, bracelets, neck-
laces or other jewelry while the sander is in opera-
tion. Wear protective hair covering to contain long
hair and wear non-slip footwear.
8. Be sure that adjusting wren ches, tools, drinks and
other clutter are removed from the machine and/or
the feed table surface before operating.
9. Keep hands well away from the sanding belts and
all moving parts. Use a brush, not hands, to clear
away sanding dust.
10. Be sure sanding belts are securely installed on the
sanding drums.
11. Do not operate the sander if the sanding belts are
damaged or badly worn.
12. Do not push or force the workpiece into the sander.
The machine will perform better and more safe-
ly when working at the feed rate for which it was
designed.
13. Avoid working from awkward or off balance posi-
tions. Do not overreach and keep both feet on floor.
14. Keep guards in place and in working order. If a
guard must be removed for maintenance or clea-
ning, be sure it is properly re-attached before using
the tool again.
15. Never leave the machine unattended while it is run-
ning or with the power on.
16. Use of parts and accessories NOT recommended
by

may result in equipment
malfunction or risk of injury.
17. Never stand on the machine. Serious injury could
occur if the sander is tipped over or if the sanding
drums are unintentionally contacted.
18. Always disconnect the tool from the power source
before servicing, changing accessories or sanding
belts, or before performing any maintenance or
cleaning, or if the machine will be left unattended.
19. Make sure that switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the power cord.
20. Make sure the tool is properly grounded. If equipped
with a 3-prong plug it should be used with a three--
pole receptacle. Never remove the third prong.
21. Do not use the sander for any purpose other than its
intended use. If used for other purposes,
