ØDO unplug machine while changing or adjusting belts so as not to accidentally turn machine on.
ØDO guard against electric shock by preventing body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,
refrigerators, etc.
ØDO be mindful that power tools can expose an operator to vibrations transmitted trough contact with the machine.
Prolonged exposure can lead to medical issues which should be discussed with a medical professional.
ØDO use a dust extraction system for working materials that create dust. The operator should also wear a protective
respiratory device.
ØDO NOT make adjustments to machine while the machine is running.
ØDO NOT use this machine with water or any type of liquids.
ØDO NOT leave the machine running when not in use.
ØDO NOT hold the work piece by hand or using body. Always mechanically clamp or secure work piece.
ØDO NOT allow liquids or dust to enter the machine’s ventilation system.
ØDO NOT operate machine outside of machine specifications.
ØDO NOT touch moving parts while the machine is running as death or dismemberment could occur.
ØDO NOT remove machine plastic panel while machine is connected to a power source. Only to be removed for
service by qualified personal and put back on the machine after service is complete.
ØDO NOT allow children or untrained personal to operate machine.
ØDO NOT use this machine in the rain or a wet environment. If using outdoors, make sure the surface is clean and dry.
ØDO NOT operate in the presence of explosive materials as power tools create sparks which may ignite dust or fumes.
ØDO NOT use on a work area that may contain a live electrical wire/circuit.
ØDO NOT operate this machine on the same work surface where welding is being performed. This could result in
severe damage to the machine or personal injury to the user.
ØDO NOT operate this machine on a lower voltage as this could limit the motor life and work efficiency.
oNOTE: Use of long small gauge power extension cords can result in decreased voltage. As local voltages
can vary, it may be a good idea to test the voltage at the end of the extension cord to ensure proper voltage
requirements are met. You might also consult an electrician to make sure the length of cord matches up
with the proper wire gauge for this size motor. Make sure to use outdoor cords when operating outdoors.
Use a GFCI circuit if using in wet locations.
HEALTH WARNINGS
ØCertain dust created by sanding contains chemicals known to cause a variety of health issues including cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. The examples of some of these chemicals are below (this is not an exhaustive
list):
oLead from lead based paint.
oCrystalline silica from bricks, cement and assorted masonry products.
oGlues in certain woods.
oMetal fragments.
§TO REDUCE RISK OF EXPOSURE TO THESE CHEMICALS, WORK IN A WELL VENTILATED
AREA WITH VACUUM SYSTEMS, RESPIRATORS AND WITH ALL SUITABLE SAFETY
EQUIPMENT. DO FOLLOW ALL LOCAL AND NATIONAL SAFETY STANDARDS WHEN
WORKING WITH SPECIFIC MATERIALS.
