Additional Safety for Metal Shears
AMPUTATION HAZARD. The shear blades can
easily pinch, crush, or amputate fingers or other
body parts. Always keep hands, fingers, and other
body parts away from the blades during operation.
SHARP METAL EDGES. Sharp edges on newly
cut sheet metal workpieces can easily cause deep
cuts while handling. Wear leather gloves to help
protect your hands when handling workpieces, and
always chamfer and debur sharp workpiece edges.
PROPER WORKPIECE MATERIAL. This shear is
only intended for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous
sheet metal or flat stock. Do not attempt to cut
round metal stock, glass, wood, drywall, backer
board, plywood, or other material not intended for
this machine. Cutting incorrect materials can pro-
duce unexpected results, which increases the risk
of injury, and may result in damage to the machine.
SECURE SHEAR BEFORE USE. Before using,
fasten shear to a sturdy surface that can withstand
the dynamic forces involved in shearing sheet
metal. Otherwise, shear may unexpectedly move
or fall, causing serious injury or property damage.
STABLE FOOTING. This shear requires you to
apply a moderate/high level force while cutting.
Without stable footing, you could slip or fall, which
could cause personal injury. Always stand with
both feet comfortably on a non-slip surface during
operation.
BODY POSITION. The forces and body motion
required to operate this shear can result in opera-
tor injury over time if proper technique is not used.
Always keep your body centered with the machine
and your back straight when applying pressure
against handles.
BLADE CONDITION. Blades that are sharp,
undamaged, and properly adjusted will reduce risk
of injury and improve cutting results. Always keep
blades properly maintained.
BLADE GUARD. The blade guard is designed
to reduce risk of amputation. Always keep guard
properly attached and in good condition during
operation.
RATED CAPACITY. Only use sheet metal that is
within the rated capacity of this shear (refer to the
Machine Data Sheets on Page 5 and 6).
Like all machinery there is potential danger
when operating this machine. Accidents
are frequently caused by lack of familiarity
or failure to pay attention. Use this machine
with respect and caution to decrease the
risk of operator injury. If normal safety pre-
cautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-
ous personal injury may occur.
No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies
to your individual working conditions. Use
this and other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result in
serious personal injury, damage to equip-
ment, or poor work results.
