SAFETY RULES (CONTINUED)
•
Keep children out of the workplace. Make workshop childproof.
Use padlocks, master switches or remove switch keys to pre-
vent any unauthorized use of power tools.
TOOL SHOULD BE MAINTAINED
•
Always unplug tool prior to inspection.
•
Consult manual for specific maintaining and adjusting proce-
dures.
•
Keep tool lubricated and clean for safest operation.
•
Remove adjusting tools. Form habit of checking to see that
adjusting tools are removed before switching machine on.
•
Keep all parts in working order. Check to determine that the
guard or other parts will operate properly and perform their
intended function.
•
Check for damaged parts. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding, breakage, mounting and any other condition that may
affect a tool’s operation.
•
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced. Do not perform makeshift repairs. (Use
the parts list to order replacement parts.)
KNOW HOW TO USE TOOL
•
Use right tool for job. Do not force tool or attachment to do a
job for which it was not designed.
•
Disconnect tool from power when changing abrasive belt or
disc.
•
Avoid accidental start-up. Make sure that the switch is in the
OFF position before plugging in.
•
Do not force tool. It will work most efficiently at the rate for
which it was designed.
•
Keep hands away from moving parts and sanding surfaces.
•
Never leave tool running unattended. Turn the power off and
do not leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance.
•
Never stand on tool. Serious injury could occur if tool is tipped
or if belt or disc are unintentionally contacted.
•
Know your tool. Learn the tool’s operation, application and
specific limitations.
•
Handle workpiece correctly. Protect hands from possible injury.
•
Turn machine off if it jams. Belt jams when it digs to deeply into
workpiece. (Motor force keeps it stuck in the work).
•
Support workpiece with miter gauge, belt platen or work table.
•
Maintain
1
