Additional Safety Rules

Tool Use

DON’T FORCE TOOL 

It will do the job better and safer at the rate for 
which it was designed.

 
USE THE RIGHT TOOL 

Don’t force a small tool or attachment to do the 
job of a heavy duty tool. Don’t use tool for 

purpose not intended—for example, don’t use 
a circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.

 
SECURE WORK 

Use clamps or a vice to hold work. It’s safer 
than using your hand and it frees both hands 
to operate the tool. 
 
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING 
UNATTENDED  
Turn power off. Don’t leave tool until it comes 
to a complete stop. 

Tool Care

DO NOT ALTER OR MISUSE TOOL 

These tools are precision built. Any alteration 
or modification not specified is misuse and 
may result in dangerous conditions.

 
AVOID GASEOUS AREAS 

Do not operate electric tools in a  gaseous or 
explosive atmosphere. Motors in these tools 
normally spark, and may result in a dangerous 
condition. 
 
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE  
Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest 
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating 
and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords 
periodically and if damaged, have repaired by 
authorized service facility. Inspect extension 
cords periodically and replace if damaged. 
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and 
grease.

WAR 

Before connecting the tool to a power source 
(receptacle, outlet, etc.), be sure

voltage 

supplied is the same as that specified on the 
nameplate of the tool. A power source with a 
voltage greater than that specified for the tool 
can result in serious injury to the user, as well 
as damage to the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT 
PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source 
with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is 
harmful to the motor .

For your own safety, do not operate your 
sander until it is completely assembled

and installed according to the instructions … 
and until you have read and understood the 
following:

STABILITY OF THE BELT/DISC SANDER  

If there is any tendency of the belt/disc sander 
to tilt or move during any use, bolt it to the 
bench top or to a piece of 3/4" exterior 
plywood large enough to stabilize the sander. 
Bolt the plywood to the underside of the base 
so it extends beyond the sides of the base.  
DO NOT USE PRESSED WOODS PANELS. 
They can break unexpectedly. If the workpiece 
is too large to easily support with one hand, 
provide an auxiliary support.

LOCATION

Use the sander in a well-lit area and on a level 
surface, clean and smooth enough to reduce 
the risk of trips and falls. Use it where neither 
the operator nor the casual observer is forced 
to stand in line with a potential kickback.

PROTECTION:

Eyes, hands, ears and body.

WARNI NG

TO AVOID BEING PULLED INTO THE 
SPINNING TOOL—  
 
DO NOT WEAR: Loose fitting gloves 
Necktie Loose clothing 

Jewellery  

 
DO: TIE BACK LONG HAIR.  ROLL LONG 
SLEEVES ABOVE ELBOWS

a.

If any part of your belt/disc sander is 

missing, malfunctioning, has been damaged or 
broken … such as the motor switch, or other 
operating control, a safety device or the power 
cord … cease operating immediately until the 
particular part is properly repaired or replaced.

b.

Never place your fingers in a position where 

they could contact the sand paper or other
