Use and Care Manual

SPECIFIC RULES FOR THE BELT SANDER

10. Do not sand pieces of material that are too small to be safely supported.

11. When sanding a large workpiece, provide additional table height support.

12. Do not sand with the workpiece unsupported. Support the workpiece with the backstop or table. The only ex-

ception is curved work performed on the outer sanding drum.

13. Always remove scrap pieces and other objects from the table, backstop, or belt before turning the sander ON.

14. Never perform layout, assembly or set-up work on the table while the sander is operating.

15. Never use solvents to clean plastic parts. Solvents could dissolve or otherwise damage the material. Use only a

soft damp cloth to clean plastic parts.

16. Should any component of your sander be missing/damaged or fail in any way, shut off switch and remove plug

from power supply outlet. Replace the missing, damaged, or failed parts before resuming operation.

17. Never pull the power cord out of the receptacle. Keep cords away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

18. Have an electrician replace or repair damaged or worn cords immediately.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least resistance

for an electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an

equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching outlet that is

properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a

licensed electrician.

IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in electric shock. The conduc-

tor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or

replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the equipment grounding conductor to a

live terminal.

CHECK with a licensed electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding instruc-

tions or whether the tool is properly grounded.

USE ONLY THREE-WIRE EXTENSION CORDS that have three-pronged

plugs and outlets that accept the tool’s plug as shown in Fig. A. Repair or re-

place a damaged or worn cord immediately.

CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is properly ground-

ed. If you are not sure, have a licensed electrician check the outlet.

WARNING: This tool is for indoor use only. Do not expose to rain

or use in damp locations.
