24. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease. Remove loose
items and unnecessary workpieces from the area before starting the machine.
25. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the machine, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting
and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced.
26. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area.
Keep children away.
27. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.
28. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation and “horse-play” are
careless acts that can result in serious injury.
29. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or lean against the workpiece, spindle
or other moving parts. Do not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation.
30. Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job for
which it was not designed. The right tool will do the job better and more safely.
31. Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be hazardous.
32. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
33. Turn off the machine and disconnect from power before cleaning. Use a brush or compressed air to
remove chips or debris — do not use your hands.
34. Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur if the machine tips over.
35. Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power off and do not leave the machine until it
comes to a complete stop.
36. Use the proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in the line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
For
runs up to 25 feet, use an 18AWG or larger gauge cord. For runs up to 50 feet, use a 16AWG or
larger gauge cord. For runs up to 100 feet, use a 14AWG or larger gauge cord. For runs up to
150 feet, use a 12AWG or larger gauge cord. Runs over 150 feet are not recommended.
If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
