ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS for DISC SANDERS
ALWAYS place the sander on a solid wood workbench which will not
move under load.
ALWAYS wear safety goggles as protection against flying grit and/or
sawdust. In many cases, a full face shield is even better protection. A
dust mask is also recommended to keep saw dust out of your lungs.
ALWAYS clear the work table of all objects except the workpiece (tools,
scraps, rulers etc.) before switching on the sander.
ALWAYS keep your fingers well away from the disc.
ALWAYS switch off the sander, and make sure the disc has come to a
complete stop before clearing sawdust from the table.
ALWAYS make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of
the workpiece to be sanded.
ALWAYS set up the machine and make all adjustments with the power
OFF, and disconnected from the supply.
ALWAYS use the correct type and size of sanding disc for each
operation.
ALWAYS maintain a gap of 1.5 - 2mm MAX. between the sanding Disc
and the table.
ALWAYS take great care if sanding non-ferrous metals. Dust from some
materials can be extremely dangerous.....toxic or explosive.
NEVER operate the machine with the guards or table removed. They
must all be in place and securely fastened when performing any
operation
NEVER sand any material that does not have a flat surface on which
to bear.
NEVER force the work into the disc....Hold it FIRMLY and press it gently
into the disc, on the DOWNWARD direction side.
NOTE: The disc spins in an ANTICLOCKWISE direction. The workpiece
should ALWAYS be sanded on the LEFT HAND HALF of the disc.
