General Safety and Precautions
This safety summary contains general safety warnings that should be understood during operation of
this machine. Failure to observe these precautions could result in injury.
Learn and understand safe use of the machine. Do not allow untrained individuals
to operate the machine without supervision. Be aware of the location of the Emer-
gency Stop switches at all times.
Eye and ear protection MUST be worn by the machine operator as well as any
bystanders or observers. Flying sawdust, material chips, and other debris can
cause serious eye injury.
Wear closed-toe shoes at all times.
Ensure material is properly secured before cutting, and be aware of any small
parts that may come loose after being cut. If a small part catches the edge of a
spinning bit, it can be thrown forcefully in any direction, causing injury or damage.
DO NOT place hands on the rails of the ShopBot. Be aware that the machine may
move unexpectedly in any direction, which can cause serious injury if hands are
in the path of movement.
Never wear gloves while operating the machine. As with any power tool, a glove
can get caught in moving or spinning parts and pulled into the machinery.
Never leave a machine running and unattended. A spinning tool generates friction
and heat, creating a risk of re. This risk is minimized by using correct chip load,
using sharp bits, and by always double-checking les before cutting. Be prepared
to pause or stop the cut if something seems incorrect or unsafe.
Keep a working re extinguisher within reach of the machine.
