SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (cont.)
21. Belt Adjustment. NEVER attempt a belt tracking adjustment while the drum sander is
running.
22. DO NOT touch live electrical components or parts.
23. Be Sure all equipment is properly installed and grounded according to national, state, and
local codes. If machine is equipped with a three-prong plug, it should be plugged into a
three-hole electrical receptacle. If an adapter is used to accommodate a two-prong
receptacle, the adapter plug must be attached to a known ground. Never remove the third
prong.
24. Inspect power and control cables periodically. Replace if damaged or bare wires are
exposed. Bare wiring can kill!
25. Maintain machine in top condition. Keep clean for best and safest performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
26. Reduce the risk of unintentional starting. Make sure switch is in
“OFF” position before
plugging in power cord.
27. Never leave machine running unattended. TURN POWER OFF
. Don’t leave machine
until it comes to a complete stop.
28. Make sure machine is disconnected from power supply while motor is being mounted,
connected or reconnected.
29. Sanding Paper on Drum. DO NOT operate the Drum sander if the sand paper is damaged
or badly worn. Replace at once.
30. Inspect Piece Part. Always inspect piece part for staples, nails, knots, or other
imperfections that could become projectiles causing personal injury.
31. Sand Appropriate Material. Only use this sander for natural wood stock. It is NOT
recommended to sand particle board, plastics, laminates, medium-density fibre board
(MDF), metal, glass, ceramics, or products containing asbestos or lead paint. Some of these
materials contain hazardous dust and will shorten the life span of the belt.
32. Warning: The dust generated by certain woods and wood products can be injurious to your
health. Always operate machinery in well ventilated areas and provide for proper dust
removal. Use a wood dust collection system whenever possible.
